Product Description
Light Diesel Oils (LDO) are middle-distillate petroleum products used primarily as industrial and domestic fuels. They provide efficient combustion and are often used in engines and boilers where medium-grade fuel is suitable.
Applications/End-use Industries:
- Industrial boilers and furnaces
- Diesel engines in generators and vehicles
- Agricultural machinery fuel
- Power generation plants
- Heating applications in industries
Efficient Fuel for Industrial ApplicationsLDO serves as a dependable energy source for industrial furnaces, boilers, kilns, and slow-speed engines. Its high calorific value and optimized viscosity facilitate smooth combustion and efficient energy distribution in demanding settings, making it an industry favorite for a wide range of thermal applications.
Quality Specifications and Storage GuidelinesManufactured to strict quality parameters-including flash point, pour point, and low ash and sulphur content-LDO ensures consistent performance. For best results, store LDO in cool, well-ventilated tanks made of mild steel, keeping it away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain quality for up to 12 months.
FAQ's of LDO (Light Diesel Oils):
Q: How should Light Diesel Oil (LDO) be stored for maximum shelf life?
A: LDO should be stored in cool, well-ventilated tanks made of mild steel, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage will maintain its quality and effectiveness for up to 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Q: What are the primary industrial uses of LDO?
A: LDO is mainly used as a fuel in industrial furnaces, boilers, kilns, and generators. Additionally, it is suitable for direct injection in burners and as a fuel for medium and slow-speed diesel engines.
Q: When is the ideal time to use LDO before it expires?
A: LDO should be used within 12 months from its manufacturing date to ensure optimal purity and performance.
Q: Where can LDO be applied for best results?
A: LDO demonstrates peak efficiency when used in industrial settings, particularly in equipment such as furnaces, boilers, kilns, and diesel generators that are compatible with its properties.
Q: What benefits does LDO offer compared to other fuels?
A: LDO offers a high calorific value, low sulphur content, and compatibility with standard fuel systems. Its controlled ash and water content lead to efficient combustion and reduced maintenance, resulting in cost and energy savings for industrial operations.
Q: How is LDO packaged and delivered to industrial customers?
A: LDO is transported in specialized tankers, drums, or barrels, ensuring safe handling and consistent quality on delivery to manufacturing facilities and industrial plants.
Q: What should be considered regarding the process of using LDO in engines or burners?
A: LDO should be directly injected into compatible fuel systems and burners. Regular maintenance and adherence to manufacturer guidelines are recommended to ensure efficient performance and safe operation.
