Alternative Diesel Fuel Types According to EN15940 for Use in Fischer Panda Generators

Paraffin-based alternative diesel fuels produced under the Fischer-Tropsch procedure and complying with the European standard EN15940, can be used for the complete diesel generator portfolio currently supplied by Fischer Panda.

This has been confirmed by the Paderborn/Germany-based manufacturer and is valid for Kubota, Mitsubishi, HATZ and Fischer Panda engines. *

The following fuel types are approved:

- HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oils)

- XTL (X-To-liquid)

- BTL (Biomass-to-liquid)

- GTL (Gas-to-liquid)

- CTL (coal-to-liquid)

The use of these fuels complying with EN15940 will not require any additional maintenance or modification.

“We are experiencing a growing demand to run our generators on synthetic diesel fuel. These fuels are especially interesting, not only for their positive environmental impact but also because they reach performance levels comparable to diesel fuels and can be distributed by the existing fuel network”, says Stephan Backes, Managing Director at Fischer Panda, ”Most of our customers are unable to convert their power demand to a full-electric solution. The use of synthetic diesel fuel offers a perfect solution for CO2 reduction and power security in the near and further future.“
