Parker Racor provides dependable operation at sea Visit Parker on stand 427, hall 5 to find out how! Mets 2012, RAI Amsterdam

Dewsbury, UK, September 27, 2012, Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, will be underlining why it’s the supplier of choice in marine filtration systems at METS 2012. Taking place between 13th and 15th November at the RAI in Amsterdam, Parker Racor will be on hand to demonstrate its range of solutions that are helping customers every day to avoid down time at sea and to ensure fresh water independence.

The quality of the fuel utilised within marine craft greatly affects engine performance. Whilst most marinas take sensible precautions to provide fuel that is fit for purpose, operators are finding that the quality can vary. The damage that this variation can cause can be minimised by fitting Racor fuel filters. With a focus on the minimisation of this risk, Parker will be showcasing its trusted Racor brand of filtration solutions at this year’s exhibition. The Racor Marine Turbine Series with aquabloc high performance media cleans the fuel and removes any water, as well as filtering out almost all sediment, algae, rust, dust, and other contaminants. The Racor solutions are already extensively utilised throughout the industry and are delivering peace of mind refilling to marine craft operators worldwide.

Visitors to this year’s Parker Racor stand will also be able to see solutions in action with working demonstrations taking centre stage. One such demo will focus on the STW600 Stowaway series watermaker. Offering fresh water independence for ocean crossings, extended fishing trips or cruising, the on board water maker enables vessel owners to benefit from all the comforts of home such as fresh drinking water, ice and showers. The watermaker negates the risk of unreliable dock supplies.

Parker Racor experts will be on hand in hall 5 stand 427 to answer any customer questions concerning its marine filtration solutions. All stand personnel are focused on giving expert advice and offering solutions that meet the challenges of the marine industry head on.
