Our Tank Check unit will help you take samples from the bottom of your tank, either on the tank floor, or in small distances from the bottom. This will help you identify how much water has accumulated in the tank, and the extent of any diesel bug contamination. Results of these tests can help you decide if the diesel would be fit for use after Fuel Set application, or whether the contamination needs to be reduced before attempting to treat the fuel. 

The product is a must for any company or organisation that keeps diesel for long periods, or is at all concerned about the potential damage to engines caused by badly contaminated diesel. We recommend that tests should be carried out every 4 – 6 weeks, depending on throughput of fuel and whether there are any critical safety issues.

N.B. Tank Check can be used to sample any liquid EXCEPT petrol. which can affect the plastic part of the item. It IS suitable for use with diesel, wine, beer, pond water, domestic heating oil, etc.

In addition our Water Detection Paste, available separately, also identifies the extent of water contamination in the fuel. It is a simple colour change indicator, and very easy to use in both petrol and diesel.
