- Integrated fuel pump for bleeding/priming and as a backup to the main pump.
- Remote warning panel and optional GSM interface for alerts/monitoring.

Why Proper Fuel Filtration Matters for Cummins Marine Engines
Electronic‑control QSB6.7/QSB7 platforms demand clean, dry fuel. Even minor contamination—water, algae, particulate—can clog injectors, reduce efficiency, and trigger costly downtime. Installing Keenan dual filters and polishing systems like the MK60DP EFS extends service intervals, protects components, and lowers total cost of ownership.
Operating from Oxnard to Ventura Harbor, Channel Islands Harbor, and Santa Barbara Harbor, clean fuel means smoother acceleration, stable idle, and reliable starts, season after season.
