About Patriot Clean Fuel
Stored
diesel fuel tends to be the most overlooked and poorly maintained
component of any critical system. Our own experiences with clogged
filters and a generator that would not run, prompted us to realize that
stored diesel fuel maintenance is a critical component of any emergency
back up system just like a generator, UPS or the batteries.
Patriot Clean Fuel was started by critical facilities professionals with years of experience in back up power systems. We understand the impact of equipment that will not run and realize that fuel management is the key to preventing problems. Facilities believe that the responsibility for fuel quality is in the hands of the fuel supplier, but studies have concluded that stored diesel fuel starts to break down 30 days after delivery.
Diesel fuel Management is not only for emergency equipment, but any fuel tank that holds stored diesel fuel. Busses and truck engines are exposed to similar problems. Even if the fuel is run through the vehicles regularly, the stored fuel in the fuel tank is stilling sitting and degrading. Any tank that holds diesel fuel should be tested and put on a regular maintenance program.
Patriot Clean Fuel’s fuel management programs focus on extending the life of diesel fuel during storage and increasing reliability of equipment. As part of a good maintenance program, owners and facility operators are encouraged to adopt a regular schedule of fuel testing and reconditioning to proactively detect problems and correct them before there is impact. Since there is no way to predict an outage, the only safe method is prevention. We focus on maximizing your fuel’s quality so you can focus on your business profitability.
There is no good time to find out your generator won’t start due to contaminated fuel!
