Coast Guard gate — this assembly has a clear plastic bowl. Coast Guard inspected vessels must use the Racor MAM series with a solid metal bowl. If your vessel is inspected, or carries passengers for hire, confirm your requirements before ordering.

Fuel type gate — this filter is for diesel and biodiesel only. Do not use it in gasoline applications.

Micron selection — the 500MA assembly is offered in 2, 10 and 30 micron versions using the same housing: 500MA2, 500MA10 and 500MA30. 10 micron suits primary or secondary filtration. Choose the rating your engine manufacturer specifies.

Service note — the replacement element is the 2010 series in the matching micron rating. Keep a spare aboard, since a plugged element is the most common cause of a fuel-starvation shutdown.

Conclusion

This is the Racor 500MA Turbine Series marine fuel filter and water separator with a 10 micron element installed, rated 60 GPH for diesel and biodiesel. Confirm your vessel does not require a metal bowl before ordering, and keep a spare 2010 series element aboard.
