Floating Suction
Reliable Fuel Solutions:
What's in Your Tank?™
Ensure clean, reliable fuel delivery with TopFLO ® FSL innovative floating suction line products.
Provide Clean, Reliable Fuel
Reduce Maintenance Costs
Improve Emissions Standards
Why Clean Fuel Matters
Fuel stored in tanks is highly susceptible to contamination over time. Water, microbial growth, and sludge settle at the bottom of tanks, directly impacting the performance of fuel supply lines.
Standard bottom-plumbed lines often draw contaminated fuel, leading to:
Increased maintenance costs.
Warranty voids due to engine failures caused by contaminants.
Operational downtime from clogged systems.
TopFLO® Floating Suction Lines: A Smarter Solution
Our groundbreaking floating suction lines draw fuel from the TOP of the tank—the cleanest layer—using physics to stay above contaminants as fuel levels change. This approach ensures clean, reliable fuel delivery, minimizes the risk of downtime or failure, and prolongs the life and efficiency of systems.
Benefits of Floating Suction:
