Diesel Protection from HYDAC: Safeguarding Your Fuel from Refinery t

Fuel Contamination: A Common Challenge

Diesel fuel contamination is a widespread and persistent issue that can occur at various stages of the supply chain. From the refinery to the engine, diesel is exposed to multiple risks that can compromise its quality. Water ingress during storage, microbial growth in tanks, and solid particles are among the most common contaminants. If not addressed, these impurities can lead to fuel degradation, clogged filters, and even catastrophic engine failure. Contaminated diesel not only reduces engine efficiency but also accelerates wear and tear on critical components. This leads to more frequent maintenance, higher repair costs, and extended downtime, which can be particularly costly for businesses that rely on continuous operations.

Where Does Fuel Get Contaminated?

**Solid Contamination** Solid particles in diesel fuel can cause serious damage by clogging injection nozzles, disrupting combustion, and increasing wear on engine parts. Regular filtration is essential to remove these particles and maintain optimal engine performance. **Water Contamination** Water buildup in diesel fuel can significantly impact engine performance, leading to power loss, increased wear, and corrosion. It also promotes microbial growth, which can further degrade fuel quality. Effective water separation systems are crucial to maintaining fuel integrity. **Diesel Bug (Microbial Contamination)** Microbial growth, often referred to as "diesel bug," can lead to frequent filter replacements and unnecessary maintenance. It typically develops due to water ingress, forming a biofilm that compromises fuel quality. HYDAC offers advanced solutions to prevent this issue and avoid costly downtime.

Why Choose HYDAC?

Fuel contamination is a major concern for diesel engines, and without proper protection, it can lead to increased downtime, higher maintenance costs, and premature engine failure. HYDAC’s comprehensive diesel protection solutions are designed to keep your fuel clean from the refinery to the engine, ensuring smooth and efficient operations. Whether you're in construction, agriculture, or industrial sectors, HYDAC provides tailored solutions that offer proven reliability and long-term protection for your equipment. By integrating HYDAC's advanced filtration and water separation technologies, businesses can extend the life of their equipment, reduce operational costs, and optimize engine performance.

1 - Prevent Microbiological Growth

HYDAC Dieselmicron: Two-Stage Filtration for Clean Diesel

The Dieselmicron® filter element is a standard solution that ensures consistent water separation and exceptional particle filtration through its two-stage design. The use of synthetic filter media guarantees high contamination retention and effective coalescence. In the second stage, the hydrophobic barrier separates larger water droplets efficiently.

HYDAC Biomicron: Antimicrobial Solution Against Diesel Bug

Free water in tanks promotes microbial growth, which can severely affect fuel quality. The Biomicron® filter integrates three key benefits: particle filtration, water separation, and antimicrobial protection. Its two-stage structure prevents microbial development and ensures clean fuel throughout the system.

2 - Pre-filters and Water Separators with Biomicron and Dieselmicron Element Technology

HYDAC HDP High Tech

The HDP diesel filter ensures reliable pre-filtration, protecting against malfunctions and breakdowns. With a plug-and-play drain solution, it automatically removes water without operator intervention, making it ideal for suction-side operation.

HYDAC HDP Best Cost with Manual Dewatering

This cost-effective version includes a manual water drain and a hand pump, placed directly on the pre-filter. It avoids pressure loss and eliminates the need for extra fittings, making it easy to install.

HYDAC HDP Best Cost with an Electric Pump

The electric pump integrated into the filter improves start-up performance by eliminating the need for manual pumping, reducing labor and improving efficiency.

HYDAC HDM Diesel Maincare

The HDM cup filter system offers high contamination retention, compact design, and eco-friendly disposal. It effectively filters diesel and biofuel in the main flow, achieving ISO 4406 cleanliness standards.
