DieselCURE Inc. is proud to offer the best fuel quality monitoring services in the field that are offered in Canada.

We believe fuel quality directly impacts diesel generator performance – and so does Cummins, Caterpillar and the rest of the World Wide Fuel Charter signatories. In the most recent edition of the CSA 282-15, fuel quality requirements are simplified to state that the fuel shall meet the manufacturers specifications. Diesel generator manufacturers specify ISO Standard 18/16/13 quality fuel for diesel engines. Manufacturers of High Pressure Common Rail fuel injection systems specify ISO Standard 12/9/6. The use of fuel other than that specified by the manufacturer – as stated in the CSA 282-15, leads to the following:

  • Poor operation of the engine
  • Failure to start
  • Poor transient performance
  • Shorter engine life
  • Inability to carry load

Facilities Managers need to be seen limiting the probability of diesel generator systems failing to work as expected. How can Clear & Bright be good enough when better is specified?

We offer leading edge services in the field that help Owners and Operators with fuel quality monitoring and analysis so that early detection of fuel deterioration is achieved easily. We regularly measure particulate distribution and water content. Our differentiation? We then run fuel samples through special filters which allow us to isolate the particles and magnify them for visual analysis. Images are then included in your fuel report.

The combination of key information then allows us to target fuel contamination with specific filters or water removal strategies which ends up saving time and money. You are then able to measure fuel quality before and after any polishing services are performed so that you know the job is being done properly.

We recently saved one of our clients money by determining their fuel did not require polishing at that time – despite 2 other companies having quoted tens of thousands of dollars for their polishing services. We put our technology to work and let science determine the answers.
