A fuel filtration system and methods controlling, and operating a fuel filtration system. A first fuel filter head is fluidly coupled to one or more first fuel filters, a second fuel filter head is fluidly coupled to one or more second fuel filters and a selector valve is coupled to the first fuel filter head and the second fuel filter head. The selector valve includes a primary valve inlet port, a primary valve outlet port, and a movable valve body movable from a first position to a second position. The first position fluidly couples the first fuel filter head to the primary valve outlet port and fluidly decouples the second fuel filter head from the primary valve outlet port. The second position fluidly couples the second fuel filter head to the primary valve outlet port and fluidly decouples the first fuel filter head from the primary valve outlet port.

Fuel filtration system

The present disclosure provides a fuel injector seal assembly comprising a seal member comprising a first section, a second section and an annular recess disposed in the first section, the first section having a first diameter and the second section having a second diameter wherein the first diameter is greater than the second diameter; and a sleeve member comprising a first end received by the first section of the seal member, the sleeve member further including a lengthwise portion configured to press fit around a nozzle housing of a fuel injector to cause heat transfer from the nozzle housing toward a body portion of the fuel injector.

Heat transferring fuel injector combustion seal with load bearing capability

This disclosure provides a fuel injector seal assembly comprising a seal component fabricated or formed of a first material and a thermally conductive or heat transfer component fabricated or formed of a second material that is different from the first material. The first material has a greater strength than the second material, and the second material has a greater thermal conductivity than the first material. Thus, the injector seal assembly is able to provide a primary benefit of a combustion seal while also providing an enhanced benefit of transferring heat from one portion of the fuel injector to another portion of the fuel injector.
