A fuel filter is a component designed primarily to remove impurities and moisture from fuel, especially in a car's fuel system.
To filter out impurities, screen-type filters with fine mesh screens are often used, while sediment-type filters employ a mechanism to settle heavier particles, such as water, in the fuel. In cars, these filters are commonly found near the fuel injection system's injection ports, with screen-type filters being widely used. Regular replacement is necessary, as a clogged filter can lead to engine issues.
Additionally, small fuel filters are incorporated into the fuel systems of heating devices and motorcycles. In motorcycle applications, inline paper filters, placed inside a resin case, are commonly used to trap impurities.
