Overview
Donaldson understands your need for reliable fuel filters that meet the stringent requirements for your engines and equipment. As one of the few fuel filter suppliers with the knowledge, understanding and quality systems in place to meet aerospace requirements (AS9100 certification), we design and deliver high-quality, long-lasting fuel filters and assemblies while navigating a complex regulatory environment.
Features
Efficient Rotorcraft Fuel Filtration —
Even When It’s Freezing Outside
We offer a wide range of first-fit applications and replacement filters and assemblies for rotorcraft. Our filters are designed to work effectively even in low temperature conditions for smooth operations.
For example, with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) cooperation, we designed, qualified and currently manufacture a low-temperature fuel filter for the Airbus H215. Our fuel filter water separator for aviation helps protect the fuel circuit of the turbine at low temperatures — without antifreeze or a heater. It’s certified for four hours of operation at -104 °F (-40 °C) and includes an electrical clogging indicator, a bypass assembly (control valve and red valve open visual indicator) and a water draining system.
Commercial Aircraft Fuel Filter Options
If you are looking for quality PMA fuel filters for Classic Engine Options (CEO) applications or a PMA replacement filter for the GEnx™ engine, look no further. Choose us to develop reliable PMA-approved filters and join many other satisfied airline operators.
Business Jets and Turboprop Fuel Filters
We also specialize in producing aircraft fuel filter elements for OEM production (first fit and aftermarket) and independent aftermarket applications. Our expertise extends to working with OEMs on turbine engine applications where we design and develop fuel filters for primary engines, APUs and related systems.
Advanced Filter Design Technology
Donaldson employs the latest technologies to deliver reliable products with a balance of operating life and efficiency. Some of our advanced design tools include:
- Numerical designs and simulations using CAD, CFD and FEA (assemblies)
- Computer modeling for size, weight, life, and efficiency (assemblies)
- Filter and media modeling (filters)
- Advanced manufacturing technologies, e.g., aeronautical casting (assemblies)
- State-of-the art test labs (assemblies and filters)
