Diesel Filtration Systems

Modern diesel fuel exhibits high hygroscopic properties, and extended storage in tanks can result in the accumulation of both particulate matter and water contamination. This can render the fuel unsuitable for use and contribute to issues like the growth of bacterial organisms, commonly known as 'diesel bug infestations.' To safeguard the quality of stored diesel across various sites and fuel tanks, FA-ST offers a comprehensive range of filtration solutions designed to eliminate the buildup of particulate matter and ferrous impurities from systems.


Our diesel filtration systems are equipped with either progressive cavity pumps or gear pumps. These units can be employed as a light oil filtration system, providing filtration services for oils with viscosities up to 46 grade.

Our single-unit diesel filtration systems stand out as the most compact option in our product lineup. Ideally designed for modest-scale applications, these systems are perfect for filtering fuel in small tanks found on plant machinery, agricultural equipment, canal boats, or any location where diminutive diesel tanks, typically up to 1000 liters in capacity, are applicable.

Main Sources of Diesel Contamination

Below we have highlighted just a few of the many sources of Diesel Contamination. These are the most common sources as well as being areas that are checked in our Diesel Analysis.

Water

Tanks produce condensation with the constant change of temperature on the outside and inside of the tank which results in water building up within the tank. Tank breathers that are open to the atmosphere allow moisture to be drawn in during the tanks dispensing operations, Water affects the lubrication properties of diesel fuel and causes damage to pumps and injectors and provides the ideal conditions for bacteria, mould and fungus to grow.

Rust/Ferrous Contamination

Over time storage tanks and components rust, these particles will build up over time and become a cause of pumps and injector failure if not removed from the system.

Particulate Contamination

The World Wide Fuel Charter cleanliness standard for diesel fuel delivered from the filling station nozzle should be to the ISO 4406 cleanliness standard of 18/16/13. During the transportation of diesel and storage of diesel that arrives on your site, the diesel has been transferred between various tanks, vehicle and IBC's and so on particulate contamination can quickly build. Particulate contamination in diesel creates wear particles which can cause damage to injectors and poor vehicle running.
