Metalon Products Megasel Diesel Fuel System Treatment

Metalon Products Megasel Diesel Fuel System Treatment is a new and improved hydrocarbon complex that is used to maintain distillate fuel in a sludge-free stabilized condition. MEGASEL arrests many of the problems related to storage, transportation and combustion of fuels used in diesel turbines, fuel-oil burning boilers, steam generators and internal combustion engines. Diesel fuel stability is adversely affected by the widespread practice of blending fuels from different sources. Fuel degradation is accelerated causing sludge and bacteria formation and reduced combustibility. Sticking fuel injectors, contaminated fuel lines, filters and pumps waste costly fuel, reduce operating efficiency and increase maintenance costs. The problems of corrosion, rust, acid formation and water damage are also prevalent in diesel fuel systems.

Product Highlights

MEGASEL DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM TREATMENT incorporates the quality multi-functional components required to efficiently arrest the inherent problems noted. In addition, METALON bonds chemically with the metal component molecules, forming a microscopic, monomolecular friction-reducing, wear resistant shield that will not drain off. The burnishing action of METALON produces a more precise metal-to-metal fit that increases component life. The efficiency of the critical fuel injectors is substantially enhanced, maintaining consistent spray patterns and accurate fuel metering. Upper cylinders are lubricated. Cold weather 'gelling' is also retarded. Water droplets a great potential hazard when locked in suspension are emulsified (broken up) and allowed to pass through the system efficiently. MEGASEL is virtually ashless (contains no in-organics or metallics), is compatible with most hydrocarbon fuel stocks and is nonextractable. MEGASEL dissolves carbon deposits, reduces black smoke and other emissions considered harmful to the environment.

MEGASEL DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM TREATMENT, when used continuously as directed, helps to:

  • Clean and protect injectors.
  • Prevent fuel system icing.
  • Eliminate carbon deposits.
  • Reduce blow-by dilution.
  • Reduce exhaust emissions.
  • Lubricate upper cylinders.
  • Keep fuel system clean.
  • Improve fuel combustion.
  • Speed sub-zero starts.
  • Control condensation.
  • Free sticky valves.
  • Arrest system rust / corrosion.
  • Neutralize acids.
  • Prevent sludge formation.
  • Retard bacterial growth.
  • Improve power and economy.

Applications & Uses

Application Area
Directions

MEGASEL should be added before filling the tank to aid blending, especially if there is no agitation.

Initial Treatment: Add 20 mL of MEGASEL to every 40 liters of No. l and No. 2 diesel fuel to clean and prime the system.

Regular Treatment: Add 10 mL to every 40 liters. For No. 3 to No. 6 fuels, double or triple treatment, respectively.
