Basic Generator Fuel Test

Fuel that is stored for long periods of time should be tested on a regular basis to make sure it will perform when needed.  This basic package includes the top 3 critical tests for contaminants and fuel degradation.

The following tests are included with this order:

D6304 Karl Fischer Water –  Measures entrained water.  The presence of water can prematurely create corrosion and wear, reduce lubrication, plug filters, and create an environment for microbial growth.

D7463 Microbial Contamination – Uses reflective light to quantify the presence of bacteria or other microorganisms in fuel.

D6468 Thermal Stability – Provides an indication of thermal-oxidative stability or level of degradation of fuel.

D7371 Biodiesel Content – Measures the biodiesel content in a diesel fuel blend.
