ADERCO L 1050 GASOIL LUBRICITY IMPROVERADERCO EUROPE S.A. CHAUSEE DE LOUVAIN 275 - BTE 2 • B-1410 WATERLOO • BELGIUM TEL: 32 2 354 46 72 • FAX: 32 2 354 54 10 • Email: [email protected] July 2010 ADERCO L 1050 has been specifically developed to address the unique technical requirements of the marine industry. stability and incompatibility. Taking all this into consideration during the development stage this has resulted in the following product features and benefits: • • • • • • • • Highly concentrated product Helps to protect wear on fuel pumps and injectors High Flash point . Furthermore the ignition delay in the boiler can increase the risk of a boiler explosion on board of the vessels. so that critical components such as fuel pumps are likely to experience serious wear and premature failure. Unlike earlier-generation products that are available on the market.no extra storage required Easy to transport – no airfreight restrictions Considered a non-dangerous. non-hazardous product Excellent mixing and compatibility with gas oil No tendency to form troublesome gum deposits No interaction with other fuel additives July 2010 .ADERCO L 1050 – LUBRICITY IMPROVEMENT ADDITIVE Poor lubricity is an inherent property associated with certain light density and low viscosity fuels – for example naphtha. kerosene and gas condensates. This additive also overcomes certain undesirable properties associated with earlier products. ADERCO L 1050 to control corrosion in gas condensates is a lubricity improvement additive that has been specially developed to address wear problems in fuel pumps and to alleviate excessive operational and maintenance issues when burning low lubricity fuels. such as solubility. These type fuels provide little or no lubrication to metal surfaces and as a result. being further reduced to 0. the scartest and the dosage has to be calculated accordingly after each bunkering! A new product assisting to deal with the official Emission Requirements The limits applicable in Sulphur Emission Control Areas (SECAs) will be reduced to 1.10 % effective from 1st January 2015. the dosage of the lubricity improver can be calculated. In practical terms.0 % effective from 1st July 2010 (from the current 1. DOSAGE: Aderco L 1050 ranges from 1 litre per 10 tonnes up to 40 tonnes Why is the dosage rate not fixed? ISO has created a specification for the fuel. therefore. The difference between DMX – DMA and DMZ is the minimum viscosity of 3. Do not confound viscosity and lubricity which are total different items without any link between the one and the other. The last change which will have immediate effects from 1st January 2010. For exemple: You can have a high viscosity with a low grade of lubricity and the inverse is possible too: a low viscosity and a high grade of lubricity The use of ADERCO L 1050 will help you highering the level of lubricity The both following diagrams are showing the results July 2010 .).10 % of sulphur for those vessels operating in ports of the SECAs area. The DMZ is a new grade of distillate fuel. A new grade of distillate fuel is born.000 mm²/S @40°C This DMZ is made to respect the minimum requirements of engine builders at the level of viscosity in Gas Oil.AVERAGE DOSAGE: 1 litre per 30 tonnes of fuel.5 %. is the reduction to 0. According to the results on measurement from HFFR. DISTILLATE FUEL STANDARD ISO 8217-2010 July 2010 . The independent lab runs every sample twice and averages the size of the wear scar. standardized method ISO 12156-1 to evaluate fluids for lubricating ability. treated diesel fuel). The larger the wear scar. HFFR TEST ISO 12156-1 @ 60°C during 90’ Max standard following ISO 8217-2010 Worst sample found and tested Treated result from the worsted sample July 2010 . The HFRR is currently the internationally accepted. the poorer the lubricating ability of the fluid. It uses a ball bearing that reciprocates or moves back and forth on a metal surface at a very high frequency during 90 minutes. The machine does this while the ball bearing and metal surface are immersed in the test fluid (in this case.How Diesel Fuel Is Evaluated For Lubricating Ability: Diesel fuel and other fluids are tested for lubricating ability using a device called a “High Frequency Reciprocating Rig” or HFRR. At the end of the test the ball bearing is examined under a microscope and the “wear scar” on the ball bearing is measured in microns. COMPRESSED AIR CAN BE USED TO BLOW IT INSIDE. ADERCO L 1050 CAN HELP YOU IMPROVE THE LUBRICATING ABILITY OF ULTRA LOW SULPHUR MGO. IT PREVENTS EXCESSIVE WEAR ON FUEL PUMPS AND INJECTION SYSTEM. LUBRICITY WILL IMPROVE. IF THE TANK IS ALREADY FILLED. TO BE POURED IN THE STORAGE TANKS THROUGH THE FEEDLINE. AS SOON THE ADERCO L 1050 IS INTRODUCED INTO THE FUEL. POUR INTO THE TANK AND CIRCULATE 5 TIMES THE QUANTITY BY USING A CIRCULATION PUMP.INSTRUCTION SHEET ADERCO L 1050 LUBRICITY IMPROVER 1. 2. July 2010 . DOSAGE INSTRUCTIONS 1 LITER ADERCO L 1050 PER 30 TONS OF MGO. IF USING A SOUNDING PIPE. VENT-PIPES OR THE SOUNDING-PIPE BEFORE BUNKERING. BE SURE THAT THE ADERCO L 1050 HAS BEEN POURED INTO THE TANK. Some diesel fuel can demand higher dosage of additive. STORAGE ADERCO Fuel Oil Treatments are chemically very stable and will remain in storage for prolonged periods. ADERCO L 1050 is an additive specially formulated to improve lubricity in ultra low sulfur diesel fuels. DOSAGE The normal dosage for 1 liter of ADERCO L 1050 varies between 10.

If eye contact does occur: Immediately wash with copious amounts of clean water or an eyewash solution for at least 10 minutes. typically shelf life will be 24 months. Recommended Storage and Handling Temperature : 15-35 oC For specific safety.91 g/ml 16 MISCIBLE INSOLUBLE DESCRIPTION Government regulations concerning emissions have forced refineries to modify certain properties of diesel fuel. Please contact your ADERCO representative for specific recommendations. Average dosage: 1 litre per 30 tonnes of fuel. The movements of the vessel will be sufficient to adequately mix the additive.90 HANDLING Normal precautions for handling petroleum products should be observed : If skin contact does occur: Wash affected areas with soap and water. handling and toxicity information please refer to the current Material Safety Data Sheet.
