Installing a Keenan Filter system will give the operator advance warning that the online filter is starting to clog or water is detected before it can affect the engine operation.

Available in either a dual or single filter configuration, the premium MK60DP dual filter system offers the additional advantage of allowing the operator to switch the dirty filter offline and bring a clean filter online without shutting down the engine. The dirty filter can be changed, primed and ready to be put back online without bleeding the system. In either system, the integrated pump is used for priming and back up engine fuel pressure, but it can be also used for preventative fuel polishing ensuring clean fuel delivery and keeping the contaminants from building in the tank.

The typical yachts fuel system design has not changed since the use of diesel engines and still has the same fuel related issues that affect the engine operation. Installing a Keenan Filters Fuel Management System enables the operator to have the right equipment to deal with issues before they become problems.

A clogged primary filter is the most common problem a boat operator will experience when cruising, normally resulting with the engine shutting down without warning. This requires the operator to change out the dirty filter and then prime and bleed the air out of the system. This can be a difficult task for even the most experienced operator. Installing a Keenan Filter system will give the operator advance warning that the online filter is starting to clog or water is detected in the fuel before it affects engine operation.
