 REG. No. CK92/26942/23            ADVANCED ADDITIVE TECHNOLOGY

WHAT XPC 750 DOES

XPC 750 is multifunctional, and is the only additive package which incorporates cetane improving technology to reduce ignition delay to ensure absolute reliability and maximum performance. XPC 750:

• Boosts lubricity
• Boosts cetane number
• Prevents corrosion
• Cleans fuel systems

This XPC 750 treated fuel will still have the same physical properties (eg; density and viscosity) as paraffin / kerosene fuel, BUT will have the performance characteristics (eg; wear protection and cetane number) of diesel.

TIPS ON USAGE

In several ways this fuel is actually better than normal diesel, but there are some facts which an end user needs to be aware of, in order to reap the maximum benefit. These are:

1-   Kerosene is thinner than diesel and has poorer sealing properties. Injector pumps therefore need

       to be maintained in good condition to ensure good performance.

2-   Only fuel which meets Jet A1 specifications, or lluminating paraffin which is manufactured from

       crude oil must be used. Paraffin manufactured from coal or gas (eg; Secunda or Mossgas

       refineries) is not suitable.

3-   While most machines can run on standard settings, some may benefit from slight recalibration of the

      injector pumps to maximise power output.

4-   When operating under very hot conditions with poor airflow through the radiators (eg; heavy

      earthmoving equipment), certain machines may lose some power and may also have a tendency to

      overheat more easily than with normal diesel. If this happens it is recommended that the kerosene

      fuel is blended with a percentage (20% to 30%) of normal diesel.

SPECIFICATIONS and TEST PROCEDURES

As “City Diesel” (low emission diesel fuel) is not sold by any oil companies in Africa, most fuel specifications (eg: SABS 342) used are still the “old” type. These were developed to evaluate normal diesel, and only contain tests which measure the physical properties of the fuel. They do not include any performance tests that are able to measure the effect of additive treatment, and are therefore not suitable for evaluating low viscosity, additive treated fuels.

For this reason new fuel specifications (eg: EN590:1993 and the ACEA Diesel Fuel Charter) which contain performance tests such as the CEC-5-06-A-96 and SBOCLE test procedures had to be developed in Europe, and by NATO, to evaluate kerosene/additive fuels
