Diesel fuel begins to deteriorate as soon as it is produced. This problem poses no threat if the fuel is consumed quickly. Unfortunately, diesel fuel may be stored for years. This deterioration affects the fuels pumpability and combustibility. Aged fuel tends to repolymerize, forming submicron particles, causing excessive wear to injector pumps, clogged filters and sludge deposits.
By recirculating your fuel stores, you can fight the contamination battle by constantly recirculating the fuel and removing water, dirt, and algae before it builds up and poses a threat to your equipment. When your fuel is free from contaminants, your equipment will show increased reliability and performance, as clean fuel burns cleaner.
The FRS 660 Series of fuel recirculating systems are Green Clean Certified, pre-engineered, integrated systems consisting of a packaged pump, motor, programmable control and pre-plumbed and pre-wired accessories. The RCI Fuel Recirculating Systems provide the user with the reliability of a job-engineered system, matched components, and factory assembly. These systems are designed for use with fuel oil (class II or class III combustible liquids having a flash point of 100ºF or higher).
The RCI FRS 660 Systems are fully enclosed and suitable for wall or pad mounting. All devices, wiring, electrical, and plumbing are contained within a NEMA 4 UL listed weatherproof enclosure. Isolated NEMA 4Xinternal compartments are provided for mechanical and electrical components. External ports are provided for connection of field plumbing. The enclosure includes a drip catch basin with internal and external alarm and leak detection.
Routine circulation with the FRS 660 Systems will remove 99% of water and 95% to 98% of heavy particulates, down to approximately 10 microns. In addition to dramatically extending filter life and improving engine performance, it increases combustibility. Even today's “CLEAN” diesel fuel will easily become contaminated during transportation and storage. RCI Technologies Fuel Purifiers are Green Clean Certified, contain no filters and no moving parts, there are no elements or cartridges to clean, change or replace.
