EN590 10 PPM is an ultra-low sulfur automotive diesel fuel designed for use in modern compression-ignition diesel engines. The product is supplied in accordance with applicable EN 590 specifications, subject to the refinery's Certificate of Quality and independent inspection at the agreed loading point.
The 10 mg/kg sulfur ceiling makes it compatible with the exhaust after-treatment systems fitted to Euro V and Euro VI engines (diesel particulate filters, SCR catalysts, and EGR circuits) while the controlled lubricity limit protects high-pressure pumps and common-rail injectors.
