FUEL TEST
If there are problems with filters, injectors, pumps or diesel quality in general, it is advisable to take a bottom sample from the tank(s) and have it analysed. Sometime the diesel is so filthy that the conclusion is obvious: the diesel must be cleaned.
We offer a sampling and analysis service as well as sampling sets to take your own samples. These can also be sent to us for analysis, or can be tested for microorganisms with Liqui-Cult.
REMOVING CONTAMINATION
If contamination of the diesel with water, sediment and/or microorganisms is discovered, it is important to remove the contamination from the tank(s) and to bring the fuel back into optimal condition.
To this end we offer a tank and fuel cleaning service as well as the equipment to recondition the fuel yourself. If we clean the tank and fuel, before and after samples are taken to demonstrate the effect of service provided.
PREVENTIVE MEASURES
After the contamination has been removed, it is usually best to ensure that it cannot reoccur. With modern diesel, however, the chance of this is relatively high. There are a number of preventative measures, products and systems available for this. The choice for one of these is different for each situation, client and available budget.
We offer sampling services, complete fuel maintenance contracts and installation of preventative products and systems according to the KIWA BRL-K903-08 norm.
There are a number of options for the tanks as well as the engines/burners:
IN-LINE QUALITY MEASUREMENT
If so desired, the quality of the fuel with regard to water and sediment levels can be measured in-line in order to control the quality or to adjust the filtration system.
Njord provides:
Njord automatic Fuel Filtration Systems are recommended for use on board yachts that have 12 or 24 Volt DC or 110, 230, 400 Volt AC available. They can also be used for industrial Fuel Polishing applications inside a building
Key Features:
- Automated filtration controller with week clock
- Plug & Play system
- 110 VAC at 60 Hz or 230 VAC at 50 Hz OR 12 or 24 VDC power requirement
- Water, filter, flow and leak alarms
- Absolute filtration in second filter
- Two step water separation
- Fuel Conditioner to stop micro-organism growth and stabilize fuel
- Fuel Quality required for Common Rail engines
- Stainless steel plumbing
- Remote monitoring ready
The system can then also be used to transfer clean fuel from one tank to another.
Njord mobile Tank Cleaning Systems are recommended for cleaning (bio)diesel fuel tanks as well as the fuel in various applications WITHOUT tank entry. Both above ground and underground tanks can be cleaned using our systems. Depending on the tank size a different flow rate is recommended. When cleaning the tank and fuel we recommend to use our Fuel Additive Diesel UltraClean to clean the tank walls, dissolve tank sludge and stabilize the fuel.
Key Features:
- Very compact design and low weight
- Bypass around spinon filter to evacuate water and heavy debris
- Absolute filtration with water-block
- Fuel quality required for Common Rail engines
- Including suction and return hoses
- Optional Fuel Conditioner to stop microorganism growth and stabilize fuel
- Optional prefilter for heavy sedimentation and sludge
- Optional Filtration Controller
- Optional flow meter to know how many liters you have pumped and cleaned
The drastic reduction of sulfur and addition of bio-components to diesel fuel in recent years have further reduced shelf life and increased fuel related headaches. To make sure your engines or burners run reliably and efficiently on (bio)diesel, it is strongly recommended to recirculate each fuel tank a few times per year.
To bring and keep the fuel in spec and meet the engine manufacturers’ fuel cleanliness requirements, it is essential to keep water below 70 ppm and reach at least an 18-16-13 ISO 4406:1999 particle size distribution. Multi-pass filtration with a water absorber and absolute filter elements with a high Beta ratio for filtration below 5 micron are required. This is realized using the Njord Mobile Tank Cleaning Systems running in a parallel recirculation loop to the fuel tank.
