2 Molded Standpipe/Centertube
helps to protect high horsepower engines 2
from hard start problems and to prevent
collapse caused by a sudden difference
between internal and external pressure.

3 Easy-Opening Valve

has one seal instead of three and requires
88 percent less torque to open and close.

4 Heavy-Duty Baseplate
is joined to the can with a double-rolled,
tuck lock seam to resist leakage due to
high pressure and vibration. 6

5 High-Efficiency InterBlend™ Media 3

combines layers of polyester and cellulose
to increase contaminant removal efficiency
and contaminant holding capacity.

6 All-Metal, Self-Venting Drain

eliminates the need to separately vent the fuel
system prior to draining, while adding superior
structural strength and ease of service.

Test results using SAE J1985, SAE J1488 and SAE J905 procedures demonstrate that Baldwin Filters’
BF1259 exceeds the OE specifications in efficiency and contaminant holding capacity. The enhanced
performance of our InterBlend media combined with heavy-duty construction make the BF1259 the best
choice as the aftermarket replacement for protecting fuel systems in new generation Cummins engines.

InterBlend™ Exceeds OEM Specs

Baldwin’s BF1259, with InterBlendTM media, continues to exceed the aftermarket replacement for fuel/water separators on
Cummins CELECT TM electronic engines. In laboratory tests (see charts below), the BF1259 exceeds OE specifications when
testing contaminant removal efficiency, emulsified water removal capability and contaminant holding capacity.

Higher efficiency means less damage-causing contaminants pass through the filter to sensitive fuel injection components,
leading to longer and more efficient fuel system life.

The BF1259 with InterBlend media was designed to increase contaminant trapping efficiency, dirt-holding capacity and water-
removal efficiency. The final result is a fuel/water separator that meets or exceeds the OEM’s filter specifications.
