DESCRIPTION: ALKEN EVEN-FLO® 912 is a surfactant-catalyst
blend designed to improve fuel economy and reduce smoking in oil-fired engines
and turbines, and to control injector fouling and deposit build-up in the
combustion and exhaust areas of Diesel engines. Similar to Even-Flo 911,
except for its higher flashpoint and increased emulsification of water
into micro-droplets that do not interfere with fuel burning or cause
corrosion. ALKEN EVEN-FLO® 912 can also be used to treat fuel oil that
contains a higher level of water than can be micro-emulsified by ALKEN®
EVEN-FLO® 91OE. BENEFITS:
DOSAGES: ALKEN EVEN-FLO® 912 treatment should be applied at the rate of 1 gallon per 1000 gallons of fuel. After sufficient operating time for the combustion system to stabilize, dosage can be adjusted up or down as needed to arrive at the minimum dose needed to achieve the desired results. For onroad applications (outside the US), a higher dose can be safely used to rapidly clean out a dirty engine (see California case study), but does not offer the same economy for long term use. PLEASE NOTE: The only manganese that is authorized by the USEPA as a fuel treatment ingredient for onroad use is MMT. This product contains another, less expensive manganese, so this formulation is not EPA registered for on-road applications in the United States. ALKEN EVEN-FLO® 912 can be added directly
to the fuel storage tank before delivery, or it can be metered into the
fill line during delivery. Either procedure will insure thorough mixing
with the fuel oil being used to run boilers, when fuel oil contains higher
water contamination than can be micro-emulsified by ALKEN EVEN-FLO®
910E. Apply 1 gallon for each 4,500 to 7,000 gallons of water-contaminated
fuel oil, which translates to a dosage range of 140 to 220 ppm. PACKAGING AND HANDLING: ALKEN EVEN-FLO® 912 is shipped in containers conforming to Performance Oriented Packaging specifications. Contains aromatic hydrocarbons. Safety goggles and neoprene gloves are recommended when removing from drums. Handle in a well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to vapors. Non-Combustible. Store and use away from heat, flame, or other ignition sources. Update 08/22/2006 |
