Generator fuel polishing

Why Fuel Polishing Is Important?

A facility has a generator for a single purpose; to operate when it is called upon. Fuel in a standby generator can sit in the tank for months or even years before it is used. Over that length of time, the fuel is no longer the quality it was at purchase. Without fuel, a generator will not run. Without quality fuel a generator will eventually experience unexpected and costly breakdowns. It’s a fact that over 90% of all engine failures are due to poor fuel quality. Fuel polishing is essential for ensuring a reliable fuel supply and that a generator will start and run when called upon.

Removing those contaminants and bringing the fuel back to a condition it was originally intended proves to be a critical component of any maintenance program aimed at ensuring the stability of your fuel supply and safeguarding the optimal functioning of your equipment during crucial operational periods.

How Often Should I Polish My Fuel?

Fuel polishing cycles vary based on volume and conditions. However, annual ASTM-approved fuel tests are recommended by both the NFPA and JACHO to be performed annually. Some facilities may want to opt for more frequent testing, such as every six months depending on their risk tolerance. Regular fuel testing ensures that fuel quality remains within the desired range and allows for timely intervention if contamination is detected.

Fuel Replacement vs. Fuel Polishing

Fuel polishing emerges as a cost-effective alternative to the expensive option of fuel replacement, especially for facilities with bulk fuel storage. Some tanks hold over $100,000 worth of fuel, making it impractical to replace such large quantities. Instead, specialized equipment can revitalize stored fuel at a much lower cost, making it a fiscally responsible choice.

Facility managers view fuel as a critical asset that must be protected and maintained. Therefore, serious fuel maintenance procedures, including regular fuel polishing, are implemented to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of stored fuel.
