WIF-Shield Diesel is an ABYC and USCG CFR compliant Fire protection device designed for Racor Marine Turbine Series fuel filters/water separators. In addition to Fire Testing Compliance, WIF-Shield also provides compatibility with the Racor clear bowl quick drain and the WIF-Pro Water- In-Fuel Monitoring system.
The WIF-Shield Diesel is a fire protection device designed specifically for the Parker RACOR VMA Turbine Series diesel filtration systems (500, 900, and 1000). While it is not the first fire bowl to deliver ABYC fire-test compliance for clear bowl diesel filters, WIF-Shield Diesel sets itself apart by providing four critical additional features that elevate safety, usability, and system compatibility.
With WIF-Shield and WIF-Pro, we make your RACOR better.
WIF-Shield Diesel seamlessly integrates with RACOR VMA Turbine Series filters, including the 500, 900, and 1000 models, while unlocking capabilities that standard fire bowls cannot match.
Vented Quick Drain Compatibility – Unlike standard fire bowls with a messy hex-nut drain, WIF-Shield allows continued use of RACOR’s Vented Quick Drain, enabling fast, safe, and clean removal of contaminants or fuel.
Tool-Free Maintenance – Designed with a tool-less removable bowl, filter service is quick and hassle-free.
WIF-Pro Drain Bottle Integration – When paired with RACOR’s Vented Quick Drain, the WIF-Pro drain bottle attaches easily for controlled draining, eliminating spills and improving safety.
500 Series Full Compatibility – On the RACOR 500 VMA Turbine, WIF-Shield uniquely enables simultaneous use of WIF-Pro water-in-fuel detection and fire protection—a first for this filter series.
On the RACOR 500 series, operators have long faced a trade-off:
Fire Protection (ABYC compliance) or
Water-in-Fuel Detection (WIF-Pro)
With WIF-Shield Diesel, you no longer have to choose. It is the only solution that enables both fire protection and WIF-Pro integration on the 500 series—a critical advancement for vessels where safety regulations, such as US Coast Guard requirements, mandate fire protection on clear bowl diesel filters.
✅ ABYC-Compliant Fire Protection for diesel clear bowl filters.
✅ Clean, Safe Draining with the RACOR Vented Quick Drain + WIF-Pro drain bottle.
✅ No Tools Required – maintenance simplified.

WIF-Shield Diesel and WIF-Pro Diesel ensure vessel operators never have to compromise.
