Help prevent diesel fuel gelling in cold weather

Cold temperatures often slow or stop diesel fuel flow during start-up and in daily operations. When it is cold enough to cause gelling in the fuel, equipment and vehicles can become disabled. This includes over-the-road trucks, heavy machinery, automobiles, generators and other equipment that must operate in low temperatures.

prevent diesel fuel gelling in cold weather

The diesel fuel gelling plugs the diesel fuel filter preventing passage of the fuel. The only solution to this problem is to raise the temperature of the fuel until the fuel can flow again. This may sometimes requires towing the equipment to an indoor location or bringing a heater to the equipment site. The costs related to diesel fuel gelling can become expensive when you add up downtime and related repairs.

Fuel Filter Heater

The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater offers a simple solution. The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater is a thin, flexible, silicone/fiberglass heating pad, that easily wraps around the filter housing to maintain full contact and to evenly transmit heat to the filter housing helping to avoid the risk of diesel fuel gelling. The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater is an electric blanket for the fuel filter housing that helps to keep the fuel flowing and to reduce unnecessary downtime.

When it is time to change the filter element, the Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater is easily released for transfer to the new filter housing. Diesel fuel gelling and related problems are avoided.

The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater is available in 12vdc, 24vdc, 120vac, 240vac and a dual grid model combining the option of powering with direct current or alternating current in the same Preheater.

The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater can also be used to preheat the lubricating oil filter housing and the hydraulic oil filter housing. The added heat to the filter housing helps avoid filter bypass in the warm up stage and contributes to a faster equipment warm up and quicker full flow filtering. The Universal Diesel Fuel Filter Preheater carries a three year materials and workmanship warranty.

What is a Universal Preheater™?

The Universal Preheater™ is a new kind of pre heater.  It is a thin, flexible heating pad that provides even, gentle heating to engine oil, hydraulic fluid, transmission oil, water, etc.

  • Heat from preheater conducts quickly through the metal body of a fluid vessel to provide a wide heating area and rapidly heat the fluid supply without burning it.
  • The preheater mounts to the outside of an oil pan (or storage tank, or reservoir, etc) and it has no coils to clog or fail.
  • The preheater warms and holds engine oil at summer-like (LWD) or near engine operating temperatures (HWD) for easier starting and instant oil pressure even in sub-zero weather.
  • The preheater uses less power when compared to conventional block heaters.  Often, from one to two-thirds less!
  • Simple installation - does not invade any systems, nor does it require cutting any holes, welding, etc. Most installations are completed in less than an hour. Permanently mounts to the outside of a engine oil pan (or storage tank, hydraulic reservoir, transmission housing, gearbox, water tank, etc). Ideally, the preheater is installed at the bottom of the fluid vessel to be heated because heat rises, however, the preheater can also be installed on the side of the fluid vessel (below the level of the fluid).
  • Every LWD Universal Preheater™ carries a three year warranty. Every HWD Universal preheater™ carries a six month warranty.
