tugs – engine diesel

Clean diesel is essential for tug operation, especially for common rail designs where much finer tolerances in injectors and feed pumps are being applied. Keeping diesel clean and free from water in the settling tank and the day tank is key to achieving a good performance of the engine. 

Challenge
Diesel bugs in the tank can be a major problem if diesel is not kept dry. Lifetime of injectors and fuel pumps especially with common rail tier 3 engines can be drastically reduced. At the end of the day, if you do not keep the diesel dry, you risk dead ship due to blocked filters and damaged injectors, because of diesel bugs multiplying.

Benefits, installing CJC® Oil Filters

• Keep your tugs running and avoid dead ship
• Optimise availability of the tugs
• Reduce risk of diesel bugs
• Increase lifetime of injectors and fuel pumps.
• Reduced maintenance costs

When you install a CJC® Oil Filter solution on your engine diesel system, you get an oil filter with excellent water and particle removal and the highest dirt holding capacity. This gives you cost savings and better reliability of the engine, and a high efficiency of your vessel. 

Technically, CJC® Oil Filters are known for keeping oil clean and dry with a minimum of maintenance, which is documented over many years and in several tug diesel engine installations. CJC® Oil Filter solutions are installed with many shipowners worldwide. 

When you choose CJC® Oil Filters, you ensure a long lifetime of the engine, reduce maintenance and you avoid dead ship due to blocked filters.
