Ensuring Reliable Backup Generators

Data Centres are imperative in today’s digital age and need to be always on and guarantee 24/7 operational status – even in case of power outage. Backup generators are the lifeline that keeps critical systems running, but their reliability depends heavily on the quality of the fuel they use. The reliability of diesel generators can be compromised by water, microbial growth, and particle contamination in the fuel. Some types of fuel are more prone to contamination than others, but fortunately, there are ways to clean the different fuel types for optimal performance and reliability.

 

Your Guide to Fuel Maintenance in Data Centres

In our new guide, we deep dive into the topic of fuel maintenance specifically in data centres. The topics covered include:

  • Fuel contamination. Why does fuel get contaminated, what contaminants do we see most often, and how does this happen?
  • How does contaminated fuel affect your system?
  • Biofuels in diesel maintenance – HVO and FAME.
  • How to clean contaminated diesel
