The Wacker Neuson Racor Heater is a genuine OEM component designed for the G100, G120, G150, G180, and G240 series portable generators. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications required for cold-weather fuel system operation across the full G-series generator lineup. Fitment spans standard skid-mounted configurations, mobile generator packages, and custom cold-weather builds within the G100 through G240 family.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel System Component — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact specifications, ensuring correct heat output for the Racor fuel filter housing and consistent cold-weather fuel conditioning.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to install directly onto the existing Racor filter assembly on G-series generators with no alterations to the fuel system plumbing or mounting.
- Broad G-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across G100, G120, G150, G180, and G240 generator models, including standard skid, mobile, cold-weather, and custom configurations.
- Cold-Weather Fuel Flow Protection — Prevents fuel gelling and wax formation in diesel at low ambient temperatures, keeping generator output stable when site conditions demand it most.
- Fuel System Safety — A correctly functioning Racor heater maintains proper fuel viscosity and filter performance, reducing the risk of fuel starvation, hard starts, or unplanned shutdowns in freezing conditions.
The Racor heater is a fuel conditioning component mounted to the Racor fuel filter assembly on diesel-powered generators. Its role is to warm incoming diesel fuel before it passes through the filter element, preventing wax crystals and gelling that form in cold temperatures from clogging the filter and starving the engine of fuel. When this heater fails or loses effectiveness, the generator may experience hard starting, rough running, or a complete loss of power in cold-weather conditions — making prompt replacement critical for sites operating through winter or in cold climates.
