Official OEM Thermo King parts catalog entry for the Filter, Fuel Primary (Trailer), verified by PEAK Thermo King and West Texas Thermo King Texas, Utah, Wyoming, Washington, Oregon, serving all of the USA.
Built for Performance: The Thermo King Primary Fuel Filter 119097 safeguards Thermo King refrigeration systems by removing water and contaminants from diesel fuel before they reach injectors and pumps. This OEM filter supports reliable temperature control and continuous operation for reefer trailer fleets in demanding transport refrigeration applications.
Thermo King refrigeration system compatibility and OEM construction ensure precise fuel conditioning for long-haul and regional fleets that prioritize uptime, fuel-efficient cooling, and reduced repair costs across Amarillo, Lubbock, Odessa, West Texas, and the Permian Basin.
- High-strength filter media – Cellulose/glass media with water-stripping capability prevents fuel contamination and protects injectors and pumps.
- Durable canister construction – Corrosion-resistant, epoxy-coated housing resists cracking and extends service life in severe-duty trailer environments.
- Secure sealing – Robust gasket design resists heat distortion for long-lasting leak protection and consistent fuel flow.
- OEM fit – Threaded base and form factor match Thermo King service specifications for fast, reliable replacement on trailer refrigeration units.
- Fleet uptime focus – Reduces unscheduled downtime and maintenance labor, delivering measurable ROI for transport refrigeration operators.
- Certified component – Engineered to Thermo King standards and supported by West Texas Thermo King certified technicians.
