Diesel fuel (EN590)

EN 590 is the current standard for all automotive diesel fuel sold in the European Union member states and other European countries. That is suitable for use in all road vehicles powered by a diesel engine

BEDIA intelligent tank sensor ITS 65 is used to monitor the filling levels of oils of any kind. The sensor is able to automatically recognize and what kind of oil (hydaulic oil, engine oil etc.) is present and calibrates itself to it. The capacitative measurement principle permits measurement of levels without mechanically moving parts. This considerably increases stability and operating safety. Mechanics The new tank sensor ITS 65 is characterized by a particularly stable, but light mechanical system specially designed for “Heavy Duty Applications”. The mounting flange and measurement tube are constructed from die cast aluminium. This construction permits the insertion of tank sensors up to 1200 mm in length, without additional support on the tank floor. Analogue Output The analogue output is available as an voltage output with a range from 0 V to 10 V or as an PWM output.

EN 590 was introduced at the same time as European emission standards. EN 590 was adapted to reduce the sulfur content of diesel fuel - since 2007, this has been referred to as low-sulfur diesel. Sulfur's former function as a lubricant is no longer present, and must be replaced by additives.

The damping fluid used by LEBENDämpfungstechnik GmbH is used with different consistency under the name COMPENSOL®. Each damping medium can be chosen to meet the requirements. We provide the ideal hydraulic oil (socalled medium) for use in temperaturecontrolled indoor areas up to extreme high temperatures or low temperatures. For special applications, e.g. at temperatures above +80° C or below 40° C, we use a pastelike dispersion as damping medium. This medium solidifies at rest to an apparently solid mass and only becomes flowable under the action of force. When the load ends, it returns to its apparently solid original state. This dispersion has the following properties chemically a colloidal solid dispersion physically a nonNewtonian pseudo plastic Bingham fluid with viscous properties It is a paste or better a coagulation structure and deforms plastically under mechanical stress.
