Man Glass Fuel Separator Filter 01.81.12501.6082

The fuel separator is typically located between the fuel tank and the fuel filter. It is designed to trap water and other contaminants that may have entered the fuel tank, preventing them from reaching the fuel filter and fuel injectors. The fuel separator typically uses a centrifugal force to separate the contaminants from the fuel, and the separated contaminants are then drained out of the fuel system.

The MAN fuel separator is typically made of a durable and corrosion-resistant material, such as aluminum or stainless steel. It may be equipped with a drain valve or other mechanism for removing the separated water and contaminants from the fuel system.

The fuel separator is an important component of the fuel system, as water and other contaminants can cause damage to the fuel injectors and other engine components. Common signs of water or other contaminants in the fuel system include reduced engine performance, engine stalling, and increased engine noise.

Replacing the MAN fuel separator typically involves draining the fuel system, removing the old fuel separator, and installing a new fuel separator. It is important to use the correct size and type of fuel separator for the specific make and model of MAN truck to ensure proper fit and function. It is also recommended to inspect and replace the fuel separator regularly, according to the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule, to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
