Diesel Fuel Analysis Program

Did you know that fuel affects performance and longevity?

The life of your engine could be cut in half due to contaminated or poor quality fuel. Specific analyses are used to assess the condition of the fuel and determine its impact on the engine and its performance. Our diesel fuel program includes metal analysis, which measures sulfur, the rate of which is regulated by the government.

Diesel Fuel Testing

Diesel fuel analysis is an assessment of the general condition of the fuel. Poor fuel can cause poor combustion, premature fouling, corrosion, and problems with injectors. Our Fluid Lab has the ability to check for fungus and bacteria that can cause fuel filter plugging. If you think oil or coolant are entering your fuel, our investment in the proper equipment can detect these contaminants.

DIESEL FUEL ANALYSIS

SPECTROSCOPY

Analyze the contaminants, metals and sulphur content (ppm) present in the fuel. Sulphur has a direct effect on SOX and NOX emissions

PARTICLES COUNT

Determines the cleanliness level of the diesel fuel with the ISO Code 4406

WATER BY KARL FISHER

Water by Karl Fisher measures the amount of entrained water (in ppm) in the fuel. In the industry, standards are set to a max of 500ppm

BACTERIA

Bacteria, Fungi and Mold are indications that fuel storage tanks have not been properly maintained. Water can build up at the bottom of storage tanks and create an excellent breeding ground for biological growth.

API GRAVITY

API Gravity is the measure of a diesel fuel’s density, or weight per volume. The higher the API Gravity, the less dense the fuel. API Gravity can provide valuable information about a fuel’s composition and performance characteristics power economy, low temperature properties and smoking tendencies.
