Fuel Filtration
Fuel filter modules
Customized solutions for modern diesel drives in commercial vehicles as well as agricultural and construction machinery
There are few areas of vehicle filtration that have become more demanding in the last two decades than the filtration of diesel fuel.
The driving force behind these requirements was - and still is - the impressive technological optimization of injection systems. With the aim of increasing efficiency and minimizing emissions, components and systems are constantly being refined and pushed to their technical limits. On the other hand, their sensitivity to contamination is increasing. System manufacturers are therefore forced to demand high levels of fuel purity when the fuel enters the injection systems.
In addition, engines used worldwide are coming into contact with widely divergent fuel qualities and increasingly with synthetic fuels, which are also contaminated with particles and water to very different degrees.
For commercial vehicles and off-highway applications in particular, the combustion engine will remain the most widely used drive system for many years to come. In order to promote climate protection, Hengst is further developing the Fuel filter systems for these applications so that they can also be used with alternative fuels. Using the latest test methods, the resistance of the filter materials to aged and therefore acidic biofuels is being verified.

Fuel filter system for MAN
The fuel filter system is state of the art in common rail technology and is able to remove both the finest dirt particles and water from the fuel. With a corresponding sensor system (optional in some cases) and various valve functions, the fuel circuit is monitored and, if necessary, the flame start system is supplied and the separated water is automatically drained from the collection chamber.
Fuel filter system for Deutz
High separation efficiency with extended service life. Increased plastic content and thus weight reduction with improved component strength. Thanks to a special elastomer mixture, the filter system is highly resistant to current fuels, even over a wide temperature range of use
Fuel Filtration for MAN
Thanks to its two-layer design, the double filter system achieves a high degree of separation for the finest dirt particles and has a significantly longer service life. The automatic continuous venting eliminates the need for manual venting after maintenance and service.
