PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALLING
• Do not smoke or allow open flames.
• Turn off engine.
• Turn off power and disconnect battery ground cable
connection.
• Before drilling holes or installing mounting hardware
make sure the back side is clear of obstructions such
as fuel lines, electrical harnesses, fuel and fluid
tanks, ships hull, etc.
• Use proper fuel lines, connections and mounting
hardware. Use proper wire, connectors and routing.
1. The MK60SP filter pump system can be installed in several configurations. Listed below are some basic fuel sys-
tem designs, but it is still the operator, designer and the installers responsibility to configure the system properly.
THE DIAGRAMS ARE FOR REFERENCE ONLY
SUGGESTED TOOLS AND SUPPLIES
• Shop towels and a clean bucket.
• Clean diesel to prime the filter.
• Clean engine oil to lubricate seals.
• Proper thread sealant (do not use thread tape).
• Use adequate light, ventilation and eye and skin
protection.
• Proper 16 AWG wire for harness or 10 conductor
16 AWG cable (KTI P/N KW1016 optional)

INSTALLATION TIPS
SINGLE ENGINE PRESSURE/BYPASS SYSTEM
• This configuration allows the pump to supply fuel pressure to the engine and also bypass fuel back to the return
port at the tank. The bypass requires a check valve and shut off valve to protect the engine from drawing air in
from the return line. The bypass shut off valve is normally in the off position. This configuration allows both a
pressure and return system.

MK60SP 12/10/20 KEENAN FILTERS® by KTI Systems, Inc. www.keenanfilters.com
MULTI TANK SINGLE ENGINE WITH DAY TANK
(Reference only)
• This configuration allows the fuel to be polished to a day tank. Day tank systems use a smaller tank
to provide the engine( s) with clean fuel. Fuel in the day tank is used and replenished at a higher
rate, reducing the chance of storage contamination. In this system design we added an emergency
fuel circuit so if the transfer pump fails or there is a loss of power, the engine lift pump can pull fuel
directly from the storage tanks. This system design also allows the operator to clean the fuel
storage tanks when it is not being used as a transfer system.

• This configuration allows the pump to supply fuel pressure to the engine and also polish back to the tank or
transfer from tank to tank. A check and shut off valve is required to protect the engine from drawing air in from
the return line. The bypass shut off valve is normally in the off position.

DUAL ENGINES AND DUAL TANKS
(CATAMARANS)
• This dual engine configuration is using two separate pressure bypass systems with a supply and return
cross feed fuel circuit. The design allows the operator to polish its own engine fuel tank and also polish and
return fuel from the opposite engines fuel tank. It can also allow both engines to operate from one tank.

MK60SP MOUNTING LOCATION
1. The filter assembly should be installed between the fuel tank (fuel source)
and the suction side of the engine lift or transfer pump. Pre-existing
filters should be removed. If the engine manufacturer has permanently
installed primary filters, service with new filter elements.
2. The filter assembly should be mounted between the horizontal plane of the engine
lift or transfer pump inlet and the bottom of the fuel tank. The filter must be
mounted in a vertical position on a structure that is also vertical (DO NOT MOUNT
ON ENGINE) with the Tee-handle on top. Enough space should be left above and
below the unit to service the filter. Allow about 5” above the filter to remove and
replace the filter element and at least 2” below to drain the filter.
USE APPROPRIATE MOUNTING HARDWARE
3. A shut off valve should be installed in the inlet side of the filter, which will allow for
system testing. If the fuel tank (fuel source) is located close to the filter, the fuel
tank supply shut off may be used.
4. If the fuel tank (fuel source) is mounted higher than the filter, a shut off valve
must be installed into the inlet of the filter assembly. This will stop the flow of
fuel when servicing the filter or fuel system.
5. Location of the filter should allow for easy access while servicing and away
from anything that can injure the operator, such as hot and/or moving
equipment.
6. Use appropriate fuel line with the least amount of restriction, such as 3/8” to
1/2” ID to supply the MK60SP/K60SP. Avoid sharp 90 degree bends. Route
fuel lines away from sharp objects and heat.
7. Consider the pump switch location, circuit protected (circuit breaker) 12 volt
power source and wire conduit locations.
MK60SP INSTALLATION
1. The MK60SP/K60SP pump assembly is factory mounted on the left side of the unit
and can be move to the right side by a qualified technician. This can be
accomplished by disconnecting the pump inlet and outlet fittings and removing the
pump and mounting bracket. Remove both the right and left side 3/4-16 orb (O-
ring boss) fittings and reinstall on the opposite side. Install the pump mounting
bracket on the right side, install the pump onto the mounting bracket. Loosen and
remove the 3/4” hex bolt and fuel filter bowl. Lubricate the bowl O-ring and re-
install bowl assembly, but do not tighten 3/4” bolt. (this will allow the installer to
rotate the pump bowl to align the inlet fitting). Reposition the fittings as needed to
make proper alignment connections and tighten connections, next tighten 3/4”
bowl hex bolt.
2. The MK60SP/K60SP filter pump system can be installed in several configurations,
(see previous basic fuel system designs) but it is still the operator, designer and
the installers responsibility to configure the system properly.

1. The filter port connections are 3/4-16 O-ring boss (ORB) or 1/2” NPT (using supplied ORB to NPT adapters),
and the pump outlet is 1/4” NPT. Use the supplied KA158 plug in the unused ports.
2. Use approved 3/8” or 1/2” fuel line and connectors. To reduce restrictions, limit the amount of 90 degree
connectors or sharp bends. Make sure fuel lines are supported and keep fuel lines away from sharp and hot
objects.
3. The KH1010 cable assembly is factory connected and is positioned on the left side of the filter. If needed it
can be disconnected from the cannon plugs and (rerouted) to the right side of the filter.
4. To mount the interface box remove the 4 cover screws and cover. Depending on the wire run, position the
interface box either horizontally or vertically against the vertical surface. Mark the 2 mounting holes, drill
holes for hardware and mount box.

KH1010 INTERFACE CABLE
1. The KP300 is the remote panel designed to give the operator
indication of both water and high vacuum (filter clogging), with
warning lights and an audible tone. The panel should not be
exposed to outside elements and must be mounted inside.
Make sure the surface is flat, easily accessible and not in an
area that will be bumped, kicked or objects placed on it.
Determine that when routing wire from the KP300 panel to the
interface box it can be done easily with minimal obstructions.
2. The cutout template is only a guide. When printing out the
KP300 template on page 9 make sure the printer settings are
set to 100% scale and use the document margins. After
printing, measure the template and confirm the template is to
scale. The final drill and cut dimensions are the installers
responsibility to check.
3. Temporarily install the KP300 panel and secure with #6 flat
screws. Make sure the panel is flat and the screws fit flush,
then remove panel for wiring.

WIRING INSTALLATION TIPS
1. The MK60SP system comes pre-wired and will only need the field connections
completed. Field connections are made between the KH1010 interface box terminals
and the KP300 remote control panel terminals. Both units have printed circuit boards
(PCB) with installed Euro type* terminal blocks. This makes the connections simple to
make. The system voltage is 12 VDC. If it is being installed into a 24 volt system use a
24 to 12 volt DC inverter with at least a 5 amp load capacity.
*SERVICE NOTE: Euro type blocks are very common and user friendly, but simple mistakes can
make you spend time trouble shooting. One of the most common mistakes is not stripping enough
insulation off of the termination end. When this happens, the insulation gets clamped not the
conductor. Another common mistake is loose strands shorting to the adjacent clamping yoke
(wire socket).
2. Use approved 16 AWG wire and strip 3/16” to 1/4” of insulation off on the termination
end. Make sure the yolk screw is backed out and the yolk cavity is clear. Push the
wire in until it bottoms and hold the wire in position when tightening the yolk screw.
After tightening, pull on the connection to test, then retighten if needed. Visually
inspect to make sure all the strands are clamped in the yolk clamp and the conductor
is barely visible.

FIELD WIRING
(Please read entirely before wiring)
The MK60SP field wiring can be broken down to 3 systems
1. INTERFACE WIRING - KH1010 interface to the KP300 control panel
2. PUMP CONTROL - simple switch, timer and /or GSM control
3. GSM INTERFACE (optional) - warning and pump control
KH1010 PCB
WIRING CONNECTIONS

CONNECTIONS
INTERFACE WIRING
1. Referencing the MK60SP wiring diagram, a small harness of 8 communication wires plus 2 circuit
protected 12 vdc power and ground wires need to be routed between the KP300 panel and the
KH1010 interface box. (Use an on/off switch to control system power or use the circuit breaker)
2. Fabricate a 10 wire harness using approved 16 awg wire or purchase our cable assembly P/N KW1016
by the foot.
3. After the harness is installed, start making the connections at the KH1010 interface. The interface box
is small in size, so start your connections closest to the cable gland and out –12,+12, 8 –1 etc.
Continue with wiring the KP300 panel.

GSM INTERFACE (optional)
1. The auxiliary connections provide a normally open “NO” or normally closed “NC” contact, with a
common connection “COM”. The connections are intended for the KTI GSM communicator. This
system will warn the operator if the filter is clogging or water is present via a message sent on either
a cell phone or by email. This system also allows the customer to turn on a device remotely from a
mobile device or computer. Please refer to the GSM installation guide for the interface wiring.
FIELD WIRING (continued)
PUMP WIRING
1. The fuel pump will require a circuit protected (circuit breaker) 12 vdc power source and a “pump on”
circuit to the “P” connection on the KH1010. An SPST switch with an amperage rating of at least 5
amps should be used to control the pump. For some installations the installer may use a timer to
control the pump. From the output side of SPST switch or timer, connect a wire to the “P” connection
on TB2 in the KH1010 interface. This will illuminate the pump on LED on the KP300 panel.

MK60SP FILTER INITIAL SERVICING
1. Make sure filter drain valve is closed.
2. Remove filter lid T-handle and lid assembly.
3. Slowly pour clean diesel fuel into filter until full.
Stop filling if leaks are noticed.
4. Clean T-Handle threads and lubricate T-handle
threads, T-handle O-rings (2ea) and lid square O-ring
with clean engine oil. Make sure lid O-ring is seated
in its groove and not twisted. Make sure lid O-ring
mating surface is clean on the element housing.
5. Care should be taken not to damage the return tube
inlet when installing the T-handle. Carefully insert
T-Handle and begin threading into the return tube.
Tighten until the lid bottoms and a resistance is felt.
Continue to tighten an additional 1/4 turn to seat O-ring.
NOTE: Before servicing the filter, re-check all connections for security. Check that fuel lines are
supported and will not interfere with other equipment or be near sharp objects, moving or hot equipment.
FUEL SYSTEM BLEEDING
1. Fuel system bleeding is removing the air out of the fuel system from the fuel tank pickup to the
engine secondary filter. Follow the engine manufacturers operators manual for bleeding
procedures.

OPERATIONAL TEST
1. Turn on power to the K60SP/MA60SP filter. There will be a momentary 1-2 second pulse tone and the
“CHECK WATER” LED will illuminate. Next perform a normal engine start and warm up for 5 minutes.
Check for leaks.
2. With the engine at idle speed, close the fuel inlet shut off valve and monitor the vacuum gauge for a
steady increase in vacuum. Normally around 6”in Hg or 8”+ 2” in Hg, the “CHECK FILTER” LED will
illuminate and the audible pulse tone will sound. Press the mute switch on the KP300 panel to mute the
tone.
3. Shut down the engine and monitor the vacuum gauge needle. It should remain at the setting it was
showing when the engine was shut down. If there is an air leak between the shut off valve and the
engine lift pump, the gauge needle will move toward zero. Recheck all connections if a leak is detected
and re-test. (A large leak could show up within 5 minutes, slower leaks will take more time)
4. If satisfied with the operational test, open the fuel inlet shut off valve and operate the engine at idle for
a few minutes. Next, check the system for leaks and operation under normal engine operation between
idle and full power. A normal vacuum reading should read below 3” in Hg at all power settings with a
clean filter and full tanks. When satisfied with the engine operation test, perform the normal engine
shutdown.
5. The OPERATIONAL TEST is a great way to check your system for integrity and warning. You can
perform the test after maintenance has been completed or during scheduled inspection checks.

FILTER ELEMENT REPLACEMENT
SUGGESTED TOOLS AND SUPPLIES
• Replacement element
• Clean diesel fuel
• Shop towels
• Suitable container for old filter element
and to drain filter
ELEMENT REMOVAL
1. Engine must be off to service filter.
2. Close inlet shut-off valve or tank supply.
3. Remove lid assembly by rotating the T-handle in a counter clockwise rotation.
4. By holding the bail handles on either side of the element, slowly pull upward with a twisting motion.
Place old element in bucket.
5. Inspect filter bowl for contaminants or water. If needed, position suitable container under bowl
drain valve, remove drain plug and open drain valve to drain out the contaminants. Close valve and
reinstall drain plug.
6. Remove new element from packaging. Bend bail handles upward (this will help when removing the
element), slide element on to return tube until it bottoms. Fill filter with clean fuel. (NOTE: If the fuel
tank is above the filter, the closed inlet shut-off valve can slowly be opened to allow fuel to fill the
filter. Close valve when done.)
7. Inspect the three filter lid O-rings for nicks, cuts or deformity. If needed, replace the O-rings.
(NOTE: the replacement element comes with the standard large square O-ring and a small red
O-ring. Use the red O-ring in the upper position on the T-handle shaft and a new KAOR2MM12
(2 x 12 mm Buna) in the lower position. If a new lower O-ring is not available, use the better of the
2 remaining O-rings in the bottom position. When replacing the large square O-ring make sure it is
not twisted in its groove.
8. Clean the T-handle threads and upper surface of the element housing where the square O-ring
seats. Lubricate the O-rings and T-handle threads with clean engine oil.
9. Take care when threading the T-handle into the return tube. Tighten the T-handle finger tight
until the lid bottoms and high resistance is felt. Continue to tighten an additional 1/4 turn to seat
O-rings. NO TOOLS
10. Open fuel inlet shut-off valve and leak check. Clean fuel from the spill pan (if present) and
surrounding area.
11. System bleeding will most likely not be needed since the only air to enter the system was in the
filter housing. When filling the filter the air is displaced by fuel.
12. Perform the OPERATIONAL TEST to check system and leak check the filter (See page 16).

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
• Routinely inspect the filter for leakage, damage and corrosion.
• Change the filter element minimally on an annual basis, or when vacuum starts to increase.
• Perform the OPERATIONAL TEST before operation or during routine inspections. The
OPERATIONAL TEST checks the warning system for operation and also the integrity of the fuel
system for air leaks.
KP300 CONTROL PANEL OPERATION
The control panel will give the operator indication and audible warning if the filter
is starting to clog (high vacuum) or more than 5.5 ounces of water is present in
the online fuel bowl. The operator can also MUTE the audible so it is not
distracting.
Normally a clogged filter or water warning will take many hours of operation to
trip the alarm, so an engine shut down will not happen immediately. This gives
the operator some time to prepare for shutting down the engine and servicing
the filter. You may need to reset the system after draining water, this can
be done from the panel using the power reset switch.
Note: If the water alarm sounds after fueling or switching tanks the operator may need to shut down the
engine quickly because of possible water contamination. Check the fuel bowl for a rising water level.
DRAINING WATER FROM BOWL
1. Engine must be off to service filter.
2. Close fuel inlet shut-off valve or tank supply.
3. Draining Procedure:
• GRAVITY METHOD
 Remove drain valve plug and remove lid assembly. Position
a container to catch the water and fuel.
 Slowly open the filter drain valve until water is drained.
Close drain valve and re-install drain valve plug.
 Fill filter with clean fuel. Reinstall lid assembly. Open fuel
inlet shut-off valve.
4. Perform OPERATIONAL TEST.
