Original fuel sedimenter (water separator) 32/919700, also known as a "glass bowl". This is a key element of the fuel system, designed for JCB backhoe loaders (2CX, 3CX, 4CX), telehandlers, and Fastrac tractors equipped with Perkins AK, AR, or AB series engines. Its job is to pre-filter the fuel by separating heavier fractions, mainly water and solid contaminants, thus protecting the injection pump and injectors from damage.
Original JCB product – a guarantee of the highest quality, perfect fit, and 100% compatibility with your machine.
| Brand | Type / Series / Model |
|---|---|
| JCB | Backhoe Loaders: 2CX, 3CX, 4CX |
| JCB | FASTRAC |
| JCB | Telehandlers |
The list above is for reference. The key compatibility criterion is that the machine must have a Perkins AK, AR, or AB series engine that uses this type of separator.
When replacing the sedimenter bowl, we recommend checking the condition of the main fuel filter and the O-ring seal between the bowl and the filter head to ensure a perfect seal.
A cracked or leaking sedimenter bowl will lead to the fuel system drawing in air and causing the engine to stall suddenly, which can be dangerous during operation. Failure to drain accumulated water is a direct cause of corrosion and destruction of the injection pump and injectors – one of the most expensive engine repairs.
The 32/919700 fuel sedimenter (bowl) is a key part of the pre-filtration stage, mounted below the main fuel filter. Fuel entering the head is swirled, and gravity causes heavier-than-fuel water and solid contaminants (rust, sand) to fall to the bottom of the transparent bowl. Clean fuel is then drawn from the top into the main filter.

The bowl itself is not a service item; it is only replaced if mechanically damaged (cracked) or if it becomes opaque, preventing inspection. However, it must be drained of water regularly.
No. This model is historically associated with JCB machines powered by Perkins engines (AK, AR, AB series). Newer machines with JCB Dieselmax engines use a completely different fuel filtration system.
The sedimenter bowl (glass) usually does not include the O-ring seal, which is sold separately or included with a new, complete fuel filter assembly.
