Description
Overview
The FASS XWS3002XL Extended Length Extreme Water Separator is a purpose-built diesel fuel filter engineered by FASS Fuel Systems to protect your fuel system from the number one enemy of diesel injection components: water. Rated at 2 microns absolute, this extended-length element delivers serious filtration efficiency, capturing contaminants and separating water before it ever reaches your injectors or pump. For anyone who runs a FASS system on a Truck/SUV and demands clean, dry fuel, this is the fuel filter replacement that keeps things running the way FASS intended.
How the Extreme Water Separator Works
What sets the XWS3002XL apart is its drain-free design. Unlike older separators that relied on a manual drain, this new, more efficient water separator traps water directly within the filter element itself. That means the water is captured and held inside the media, giving you a cleaner, simpler approach to changing the fuel filter without a drain valve to service. When the media has done its job, you simply perform a fresh fuel filter change and install a new element.
Key Benefits
- 2 microns absolute filtration for aggressive protection of diesel fuel systems
- Drain-free element that traps water inside the media for cleaner service
- Extended length design for increased media surface and capacity
- Engineered specifically as the FASS system’s diesel fuel filter for water separation
- Sold as Each, so you can order exactly the quantity you need
Important Fitment & Pairing Information
The XWS3002XL must be used in conjunction with the PF3001XL. These new filters cannot be used in combination with the older FF-3003/FF-3010 or FS-1001/FS-1020 elements. When you are replacing those discontinued filters with the new XWS3002XL and PF3001XL, note the updated positioning: the XWS3002XL is now placed on the pressure side of the system, while the PF3001XL is placed on the suction side. Getting this orientation correct is essential for the system to filter and separate water as designed.
Whether you’re due for routine maintenance or upgrading from discontinued elements, this Extreme Water Separator makes a diesel fuel filter change straightforward and predictable. Because it’s sold individually, you can pair it with the required PF3001XL to complete the set. Part No. XWS3002XL, AAIA ID FKRH.
