3.6 Fuel System
3.6.1 Fuel Specifications
Use a clean, good quality diesel fuel oil according to the specification listed below. Clean fuel prevents the diesel fuel injectors
and pumps from clogging.
21/24EKOZD 60 Hz Models Only: Use fuel with a sulfur content less than 400 ppm.
32/40EKOZD 60 Hz Models and 28/35EFKOZD 50 Hz Models Only: Use ultra low sulfur diesel fuel with a sulfur content less
than 15 ppm.
Diesel Fuel Specification
EN 590 for EU - ASTM D975-09
Note:
Never store diesel fuel in galvanized containers; diesel fuel and the galvanized coating react chemically to produce flaking that
quickly clogs filters or causes fuel pump or injector failure.
Note:
Avoid storing fuel for more than one month. Take special precautions to keep all dirt, water, and other contaminants out of fuel
to prevent the growth of microbes. Microbes form slime that clogs the fuel filter and lines.
Note:
Do not run the generator set out of fuel because the fuel lines will draw in air and necessitate bleeding the fuel system before
restarting the unit.
