How to use Aquafighter Snake
- Check tank capacity, opening size and suitability against the manufacturer’s fitting guide.
- Drain or vacuum significant free water from the tank before fitting the filter. Clean tanks affected by heavy sludge or microbial contamination first.
- Install using Conidia’s official instructions and position so it does not obstruct fuel pickups or equipment.
- Inspect frequently when first installed, then at least monthly as appropriate. Replace when the absorbent chamber is approximately half full of swollen red material, or at the manufacturer’s recommended maximum interval.
- Do not leave Aquafighter inside a tank while the tank is in motion, including during operation of vehicles or boats, unless expressly permitted by the manufacturer’s instructions.
Frequently asked questions
Will Aquafighter Snake remove water from diesel?
It is designed to demulsify and absorb water in stored diesel and biodiesel blends. It is not intended as the primary method for removing large volumes of free water; drain that water first.
What size tank is the Snake suitable for?
Conidia recommends the standard Snake for tanks up to 500 litres. Larger tanks may require a larger model or shorter replacement intervals.
How much water can it absorb?
Up to 500 mL under the manufacturer’s stated specification. The filter should be replaced before complete saturation, following the manufacturer’s inspection guidance.
Does Aquafighter treat an existing diesel bug infestation?
Reducing water helps reduce conditions that support microbial contamination, but Aquafighter is not a substitute for testing, tank cleaning or appropriate remediation where microbial contamination already exists.
