About the product
The Aquafighter Dipstick Indicator provides a reliable indication as to whether a diesel fuel tank contains excessively high levels of both free and bound water in fuel tanks with a dipstick pipe, to provide a complete solution for water contamination. If the tank is found to contain water, the Dipstick Indicator insert will turn red, which means you need a full sized Aquafighter to remove the water. Model required depends on the tank size and opening, which you can see in the product size guide here.
Water content and the microbial growth that results from it is a serious issue for stored fuel quality. Water can create a nasty sludge that blocks filters, damages equipment, causes engine system corrosion and poor fuel efficiency. The Aquafighter Dipstick Indicator eliminates these problems by indicating if there is water in the fuel and if action needs to be taken. The diesel tank water indicator not only removes some of the free water like other solutions on the market but also separates and captures some of the suspended and emulsified/bound water, which often gets left to cause serious damage to your vehicles and equipment.
The Aquafighter Dipstick Indicator Refills pack of 5 has replacement filters for the Dipstick Indicator and can also be used individually as a much more effective replacement for tank paste. The Aquafighter Dipstick Indicator requires a dipstick pipe opening of at least 3.8cm.
Features of the Aquafighter Refillable Dipstick Indicator:
- Detects free and emulsified water inside the tank through a dipstick
- Prevents diesel bug from forming
- Eliminates the need for most additives and tank paste
- Reduces water to 75ppm to meet EN590 diesel fuel standards
- Suitable for diesel, kerosene, biofuel and heating oil
- Refill packs of 5 available

How do I use the Aquafighter?
The Aquafighter Finger is small enough to be added directly into the fill point of a piece of agricultural or plant machinery. You can leave it to absorb the water content in the fuel whilst the engine is not running, and remove it when it is. This makes it ideal for ensuring fuel is kept water-free when equipment is not in use.
What is the difference between Aquafighter and other fuel tank water absorbers?
Aquafighter is fuel tank water absorber that removes both free, suspended and emulsified water in the fuel providing a complete solution to water contamination. Aquafighter ensures that your fuel tank is water-free all the time by absorbing the free water and separating and capturing suspended water that makes the fuel looks cloudy. On the other hand, other diesel and oil tank water absorbers on the market can remove only free water, solving half of the problem.
What makes Aquafighter water absorber better than any additives on the market?
Aquafighter fuel tank water absorber is designed to keep your fuel water-free, preventing water contamination and diesel bug growth. Additives usually only treat the symptoms caused by water present in the fuel without solving the actual problem. Also, the diesel tank water absorber does not simply “absorb” water, but separates and captures it, which can save you money and time in repairing damaged equipment.
Should I worry about the Aquafighter expanding too much?
No. The Aquafighter fabric membrane is designed to resist expansion even when full. This is designed so that there is zero risk of removing it from the tank when it is full.
How long does an Aquafighter tank water absorber last?
Unfortunately, there is no straight answer to this question as Aquafighter water absorber can be influenced by factors such as how bad the fuel is contaminated, high humidity, leaks that require you to replace the tank water absorber more often. You can, however, retrieve Aquafighter at any time to check whether it appears full.
Is there a proof the Aquafighter diesel tank water absorber works?
The efficiency of the fuel tank water absorber has been tested over 7000 times by two of the largest fuel producers in the world and at the renown Saybolt Laboratories in Sweden. In every test sample, the results show that Aquafighter water absorber removes bound water to less than 70ppm. This and many more satisfied customers prove the Aquafighter is a perfect solution for water contamination in fuel.

Can Aquafighter clean a dirty fuel tank?
Aquafighter fuel tank water absorbers can remove free and bound water level down to 70ppm (exceeding refinery spec). However, if you have a problem with seriously contaminated fuel with a large quantity of particles, dirt and bacteria, then Aquafighter fuel tank water absorber cannot improve the quality of considerably spoilt diesel fuel. In the event of considerably dirty fuel, we recommend considering professionally cleaning your fuel and tank and then start using Aquafighter to prevent problems with water contamination in the future.
Which Aquafighter model do I need?
The model of Aquafighter water absorber best suited to your requirements depends on two things; the size of your tank opening that the Aquafighter will be lowered into, and the capacity of the tank. Once you have this information, view our product selection table.
How do I install the Aquafighter?
The Aquafighter fuel tank water absorber is designed to be lowered directly to the bottom of the fuel tank, and that the cord is secured outside of the tank for easy retrieval for inspection and replacement. For full instructions click here.
