Purflux Fuel Filter
Purflux Fuel Filters: OE Engineering in Every Cartridge
When it comes to protecting a modern fuel injection system, the filter standing between the pump and the injectors matters enormously. Purflux has been engineering filtration solutions since 1956, and its fuel filters represent the clearest expression of what happens when an original-equipment supplier turns its full R&D weight toward the independent aftermarket.
Why Purflux Stands Apart in Fuel Filtration
On a diesel vehicle, the injection pump and injectors are extremely sensitive to the presence of water and dust, especially on modern very high-pressure Common Rail systems — and the primary job of the fuel filter is to remove those impurities and traces of water from the diesel fuel. Purflux addresses this challenge with its proprietary Diesel3Tech™ technology. Purflux Group's advanced three-layered Diesel3Tech™ replacement fuel filters deliver best-in-market filtration performance to meet the challenge of freezing temperatures. Diesel3Tech™ meets the challenges posed by new diesel fuels based on ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) and first-generation biodiesel fuels — fuels that contain increased amounts of emulsified water whose smaller droplet sizes defeat conventional fuel/water separators and increase the risk of damage to modern high-pressure injection systems.
The technology has since evolved into an even more advanced form. The Ford Transit 2.0L diesel fuel filter (Purflux CS862) gathers core Purflux know-how including module conception, Chevron pleating, and Diesel3Tech+™ technology — with filter media designed to offer very high efficiency for particles down to 4 microns, ensuring a very long life of the high-pressure pump and injectors.
Chevron Pleating: More Surface Area, Smaller Package
Purflux provides high-quality filtration media and drives innovation, including Chevron pleating and compact, lightweight filters using fewer metallic parts. This proprietary pleating geometry maximizes the usable filter surface area within a tighter physical envelope — a critical advantage as engine bays grow more compact. Employing Purflux Group's latest generation of proprietary space-saving Chevron-pleated filtration media, modules are so efficient that they remove virtually all particles larger than 4µm.
OE Supplier Credentials Translate Directly to Aftermarket Quality
Purflux Group is the OE supplier of the new diesel fuel filter for the Ford Transit 2.0L engine range, and has introduced the aftermarket version so technicians can maintain those vehicles to factory standards. Seven of the top ten best-selling light commercial vehicles in 2019 are equipped with Purflux Group diesel modules, confirming Purflux Group as one of the leading OE suppliers. That OE heritage matters: all Purflux Group products for OEM spare parts and the Independent Aftermarket are manufactured to OE standards.
All Purflux Group production sites are IATF 16949 and ISO 14001 certified, providing a rigorous quality and environmental management framework that backs every filter leaving the factory. Purflux Group has received several industry awards, including "Supplier of the Year" and "Preferred Supplier" from leading car manufacturers, in recognition of the superior quality of its products.
For drivers who want the confidence of factory-level fuel system protection without paying OE prices, Purflux fuel filters offer a compelling answer. Browse the full Purflux brand catalog to explore their complete filtration lineup.
