Of all of the issues that have confronted those using fuel tanks and pumps in recent years, Fuel Hygiene is surely one of the biggest of all. Biodiesel being introduced within standard diesel fuel has only increased the need for clients of companies like Forecourt Installation Services to take every measure possible to avoid fuel contamination. If this does happen within storage tanks, filter blockages and pump failures are among the potential consequences that can leave the user with a hefty repair bill. If you use your storage tank on a merely occasional basis, there is a particular risk of microbes and bugs occurring within it. This leads many users of such tanks to contemplate investment in a fixed fuel conditioning system. We are leading providers of such systems here at Fuel System Installation. Although mobile fuel polishing is one option, we would normally recommend instead that you have a fixed fuel conditioning unit installed. You can purchase one of our conditioning kits for a tank with a capacity of as much as 65,000 litres, and they work by moving the fuel content around one and a half times in a 28 day period, in accordance with an automatically pre-set timer. In the event of the flow pressure declining below a set limit, the flow switch will automatically close and an alarm will sound to draw attention to the need for a filter to be changed. By having this feature linked to a remote warning device, you can be informed of the requirement to take action, wherever you happen to be at the time. A key feature of our fixed fuel conditioning units is a Pure fuel pre-filter that, by breaking down the CFUs, enables them to pass through the filter, followed by the engine consuming them in combustion. Our range of filter options is another good reason to purchase your next fuel hygiene solution from Forecourt Installation Services. Such options range from 10 micron to 30 micron, and include options for gravity feed as well as for ultra high speed applications. You can even talk to Forecourt Installation Services about a Fuel Hygiene testing service that entails samples being sent off for analysis and the completion of a report, usually within 48 hours. Or why not ask us to provide onsite test kits? You have many options when you need to ensure the highest standards of fuel hygiene with Forecourt Installation Services' help.
