How to Select Diesel Fuel
Quality -DD Ops (EuroV)
Quality
Note: To ensure maximum engine performance for EuroV
applications, Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel (ULSD) (15 PPM sulfur content
maximum), based on ASTM Standard D 2622 test procedure is recommended.
However, due to varying fuel quality in these markets, up to 50 ppm
sulfur diesel fuel is acceptable for this application.
Note: Fuel quality is an important
factor in obtaining satisfactory engine performance, long engine life,
and acceptable exhaust emission levels. For fuel quality specifications
and limits refer to DDC-SVC-BRO-0001.
The fuels used must be clean, completely distilled, stable, and non-corrosive. For more information regarding the significance of these properties and selection of the proper fuel.
