Fuel Viscosity Control
VAF Instruments ViscoSense 3 and ViscoSense 3D systems for measuring and controlling marine fuel viscosity, especially on HFO.
Description
Mackay provides marine fuel viscosity control systems from VAF Instruments. They help hold the viscosity needed for good atomisation and complete combustion.
Key features
- ViscoSense 3: measures and controls fuel viscosity
- ViscoSense 3D: adds density measurement
- Benefits cited: better combustion efficiency, protection against engine damage, lower maintenance costs and lower fuel-related emissions
Applications
Marine diesel engines and burners, particularly on vessels running heavy fuel oil (HFO), where fuel quality and composition vary.
