The global economy relies on competitive transport and logistics solutions, which includes freight transport, trucking, shipping, pipelines and many other forms of transfer. Most of these large applications run on diesel fuel, and there is a risk that fuel problems will occur, which can lead to increased system maintenance requirements and even failure. For industries that rely on the functioning of these systems, it quickly becomes clear that the risks of unexpected downtime must be mitigated as much as possible.

Contaminants Compromises Integrity of Critical Systems

Contamination of engine systems and components by contaminated diesel fuel poses a significant threat to operational capability. It compromises the integrity of critical systems, which can lead to immediate and prolonged system failure or component damage. The challenges created by contamination can affect operations and lead to costly maintenance. Solids that are not captured by the fuel filter can pose serious risks to system operations. If these microscopic metal fragments enter the engine's fuel injection system, complete injector failure can occur, resulting in costly repairs. This fuel contamination not only damages the fuel tank itself through rust and corrosion, but also cause damage to other equipment that requires the contaminated fuel.
