Benefits
Economical: Technol 403 is economical to use...costing as little as 3 cents
per gallon, it turns low grade diesel into a premium grade. |
-
Cetane Improver: Can improve cetane by up to 6 numbers. This is
particularly important if the fuel being treated meets only the minimum standards
for diesel fuel. Fuels with higher cetane ignite sooner and produce a low
rate of pressure rise and low peak cylinder pressures resulting in smoother
performance, reduced engine wear, reduced engine knock and reduced exhaust
emissions, especially smoke and carbon emissions. At slow engine speeds,
engine misfire is reduced or eliminated. Increasing cetane also results in
overall improvement in engine performance and increased fuel efficiency and
will reduce or eliminate carbon build up on injector nozzles and prevent
further carbon formation.
-
Increased Fuel Lubricity: With the introduction of lower sulphur fuel,
engine manufacturers have reported accelerated damage to and leakage in fuel
injection pumps and other components of the fuel system due to reduced fuel
lubricity. Technol 403 increases fuel lubricity by up to 12 1/2% (BOCLE Test)
protecting these expensive components from the effects of the low sulphur
fuels.
-
Controls Water: Algae requires water in its environment in order to
flourish. Technol 403 controls waters' harmful effects in two ways: 1. Provides
solvents that dissolve water up to 200 ppm (parts per million) 2. For water
over 200 ppm, provides powerful demulsifies that reject any excess water
to the tank bottom for removal.
-
Disperses Sludge: Technol 403 has the ability to disperse and eliminate
dirt and sludge, a byproduct of algae growth--a biocide cannot do this, and
Technol 403 is not a hazardous material.
-
Decreases Exhaust Smoke: The ingredients in Technol 403 reduce exhaust
smoke in two ways. The cetane improver results in cleaner injectors, pumps
& fuel lines which improves burning and contributes to reduced smoke.
The ingredients that disperse water and sludge also help to reduce the amount
of exhaust smoke, The result is a noticeable reduction or elimination of
grimy deposits on transoms and unpleasant orders while underway.

| Application
For best results, the fuel tank should be relatively clean. If you suspect
a dirty tank, have your tank professionally cleaned prior to using Technol
403. For best mixing with fuel, add Technol 403 before tank fill-up. Acceptable
treatment ratio range from 1:500 to 1:4000. The recommended treatment ratio
is:
Initial Treatment: 1:1000 | Subsequent Treatments: 1:2000 |
