ERADICATE fuel biocide
ERADICATE fuel biocide
destroys diesel bug microbiological contamination
use
where fuel is contaminated with diesel bug
in fuel oil
in fuel storage tanks
in bilges
in fuel
distribution systems
Unless adequately
protected in storage, fuel is prone to deterioration which
can lead to surface growth and sludge deposits
this
is what's commonly known as 'diesel
bug'![]()
THE SYMPTOMS
- blockages of filters, clogged pump lines and carburettors
- caused by brown or brown/black slime wrapped around the fuel filters
- increased regularity of fuel filter change
- odour from fuel
- poor engine performance
THE SOLUTION
- Cyrus ERADICATE Biocide rapidly destroys microbial growth in fuel and storage tanks within 48 hours
- I part Eradicate to 2000 parts fuel is sufficient to remove
contamination
Severe cases of contamination may require further treatment. - Regular follow-up doses of Cyrus Marine Fuel Treatment is recommended to disperse water and inhibit fuel from further recurrences of "bug".
NB ERADICATE does not remove dead material; regular clearing
and changing of fuel filters
is required until the fuel is clear of all contamination![]()
Available in I litre, 5 litres, 25 litres and 205 litres.
MSDS available upon request.
how to use ERADICATE fuel biocide
for
contaminated fuel in storage
if possible - drain fuel, clear and discard all sludge-like contaminated material,
and thoroughly clean entire fuel system - tanks and all fittings,
filters, fillers, caps, cocks, pipes etc as best possible, and
re-assemble.
Add ERADICATE directly to fuel and re-fill containers as full as
possible. Any residual contamination will be destroyed by Eradicate,
so check and clear filters etc regularly until the fuel is clear of
all contamination.
where
contaminated fuel cannot be drained from its storage tank
or is in use
Drain filters, discard contaminated element and contents, clean and replace. Add
ERADICATE directly to fuel and re-fill tanks. Addition of ERADICATE will destroy
the contamination; but check, drain and change filters often and
repeatedly until the fuel is clear of all contamination - which may
take time some depending on the severity of the problem.
To pre-empt any potential problems, and to guard against repeat
contamination, ERADICATE can be added to fuel
on a preventive basis - each time new fuel is put into your
tank, add ERADICATE for prolonged protection.
It's not uncommon for re-contamination to occur during refilling of
fuel and storage tanks - check and test your fuel supply regularly!
APPLICATION RATES
vary according to the severity of contamination, but as a guide
for treatment of diesel bug contamination
add
1ml to 2 litres of fuel 1:2000 - 1000ml to treat
2000 litres of fuel
for very heavy diesel bug contamination
add
1ml to 1 litre of fuel - 1:1000 - 1000ml to treat 1000 litres
of fuel
for optimum results add ERADICATE to a small amount of diesel in your fuel tank and
then top up the tank fully with diesel fuel
