Function of Sedimenter

The water sedimenter is part of the filtration

system. It is used in the fuel supplying system in

order to reduce the water content in the fuel

provided to the FIE system. It gives additional water

volume storage. A water sensor is fitted to the

water sedimentor in order to:

1.

Warn the driver that the water sedimenter has

to be drained

2.

Coupling the water sedimenter to a filter, it

reduces the amount of water seen by the filter.

3 The sensor is fitted on the bottom part of the

filter where water separated from the fuel is

stored. When the water reaches a defined level

then the sensor output switches from high

state to low state. The sensor will be connected

to the dashboard to switch a lamp.

Life and service

Life

The water sedimenter life is 5 years or

1,50,000 kms whichever is reached sooner.
