BSVI HSD Fuel Oil serves as a primary fuel source across various industrial and chemical applications, where it can be utilized independently or mixed for specific requirements. It is commonly applied in steady engines and for furnace combustion.
HSD is a 100% distillate fuel. HSD is a fuel for high-speed diesel engines operating above 750 rpm. Buses, lorries, generating sets, locomotives, pumping sets etc are the examples. Gas turbine requiring distillate fuels normally make use of HSD as fuel.
BS VI High Speed Diesel Industrial Fuel offers several benefits, primarily due to its significantly lower sulphur content (maximum 10 ppm) compared to earlier standards like BS IV. These benefits include:
BS VI fuel dramatically reduces harmful emissions, particularly:
These contribute to smog and acid rain. BS VI diesel leads to a significant reduction in NOx emissions.
These fine particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and cause respiratory and cardiovascular problems. BS VI diesel substantially decreases PM emissions.
Cleaner combustion can lead to a slight improvement in fuel efficiency, contributing to lower greenhouse gas emissions.
BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel has a higher energy density compared to other fuels like gasoline. This means you get more power per unit of fuel, leading to better fuel economy and lower operating costs.
Diesel engines are known for their robust construction and longevity. BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel contributes to this by providing excellent lubrication properties, reducing wear and tear on engine components.
BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel powers a wide range of vehicles and equipment, from cars and trucks to generators and industrial machinery. Its versatility makes it essential across various sectors.
BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel has a higher flash point than gasoline, making it less volatile and safer to store and handle.
Due to its efficient combustion properties, BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel can lead to lower fuel consumption compared to other diesel fuels, saving you money in the long run.
BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel has good flow characteristics, making it easier to handle and store. It also has a longer shelf life compared to other fuels.
The cleaner burning nature of BS VI (HSD) industrial fuel can also lead to lower maintenance costs due to less frequent filter replacements and engine cleaning.
