Piusi Clear Captor 5 Micron Replacement Element – Ultra-Fine Diesel Particle Filter

The Piusi Clear Captor 5 Micron Replacement Element is a genuine Piusi replacement cartridge for the Piusi Clear Captor particle fuel filter housings. At 5 microns, this is the finest filtration element in the Piusi Clear Captor range, providing the highest level of particle protection available for diesel fuel dispensing systems — an essential specification for modern common-rail diesel engines where fuel injector clearances are measured in microns and even fine contamination causes accelerated injector wear.

Ultra-Fine Filtration for High-Performance Diesel Systems

The 5-micron element captures the finest particulate contamination from stored diesel, including metallic debris from tank corrosion, organic particles from biological growth, and mineral sediment that settles during long-term fuel storage. This level of filtration is particularly important where modern diesel vehicles with high-pressure common-rail injection systems are being refuelled, as injector manufacturers increasingly specify fine filtration as a condition of warranty coverage. The high dirt-holding capacity of this element ensures it does not need frequent replacement in lightly contaminated systems, whilst the straightforward spin-on replacement mechanism means element changes can be carried out quickly without tools. Compatible with diesel and light oils.

Applications and Usage

This 5-micron element is specified for Clear Captor filter housings on high-specification diesel dispensing systems serving modern fleet vehicles, passenger cars, and machinery equipped with advanced common-rail injection technology. It is the correct replacement element for the Piusi Clear Captor 5-micron particle filter, and is an essential spare to keep on site to avoid any interruption to fuel dispensing operations when the element becomes saturated. For complete fuel protection, this element can be used alongside the Piusi CFD water-separating filter, providing both water removal and ultra-fine particle filtration in a dual-stage system.
