Parker 900FH Matching Fuel Filter Element for Car Engine Oil-Water Separation
This filter element is a direct replacement component for the Parker Turbine series 900FH filter housing, engineered specifically for the task of oil-water separation within automotive fuel systems. Supplied in three distinct and precise filtration accuracies—2 micron, 10 micron, and 30 micron—it allows maintenance technicians and vehicle owners to select the level of filtration required for their specific engine protection needs. The product's primary application is filtering fuel, helping to remove water and particulate contaminants before they reach critical engine components. Each filter corresponds to a clear model number, ensuring accurate part identification and replacement.
Features and Construction
The filter is defined by its specific construction and compatibility, providing a factual solution for fuel system maintenance.
Material and Build
The core filtration medium is a pleated element constructed from resin. This pleated design increases the available surface area for filtration within the compact housing of the 900FH unit. The resin material forms the structure that performs the separation of water and solids from the fuel stream. The construction is focused on fulfilling its stated purpose within the engine system without additional unsupported performance claims.
Size and Practical Fit
This filter element is manufactured to match the specifications of the Parker Turbine series 900FH filter housing. While exact outer dimensions are not specified in the source text, its design ensures it fits correctly into this designated housing. The product is supplied as a single filter element, with the model and micron rating determined by the specific variant ordered (2040SM-OR for 2µ, 2040TM-OR for 10µ, or 2040PM-OR for 30µ).
Uses and Placement
This component has a clear, defined role within vehicle maintenance and operation.
Event or Professional Use
For professional workshops and fleet maintenance operations, this filter serves as a critical service part for vehicles equipped with the Parker 900FH separation system. The availability of three micron ratings (2, 10, and 30) allows for tailored service schedules or addressing specific contamination issues diagnosed in a fuel system. Accurate replacement with the correct matching part helps maintain the filtration system's designed performance.
Everyday Home Use
For the knowledgeable vehicle owner or DIY mechanic, this filter enables the replacement of a key fuel system component on applicable vehicles. Using the correct model ensures the oil-water separation function of the fuel system is restored, which can contribute to consistent engine performance and help protect fuel injectors and pumps from damage caused by water or debris.
Benefits and Buying Value
The value lies in its specificity and role in system maintenance.
Reuse and Low Maintenance
As a replacement filter element, this product directly enables the continued use of the existing Parker 900FH filter housing. This approach supports a maintainable system where only the consumable filter media needs periodic replacement, rather than the entire assembly. Proper selection and installation help sustain the fuel system's cleanliness.
Why Choose This Product
This product is chosen for its direct compatibility with the Parker Turbine 900FH housing and its clear specification of three filtration accuracies. It provides a factual replacement option based on model numbers (2040SM-OR, 2040TM-OR, 2040PM-OR) and micron ratings that correspond to the original equipment's requirements for fuel filtration and water separation in car engine systems.
