ERC ADDITIV GMBH - We are Additive.

THE EFFECT Fluctuating quality of fuel can impair performance and consumption. Coking on injection nozzles raises fuel consumption. The high pressures of modern injection pumps require outstanding fuel lubricating properties. ERC Diesel Power Additive improves ignition behavior (rise in cetane count), cleans and keeps injection nozzles clean, and the lubricity improver improves the lubricating properties of diesel, thus providing optimal protection from wear. ERC Diesel Power Additive contains a Performance Packet for stabilizing ageing or oxidation and cold-protection (in winter operation). THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE: - eases cold start, boosts engine output - improves lubricating properties of diesel fuel and works against wear - cleans and keeps the fuel system and injection nozzles clean - protects against corrosion in fuel tanks, fuel supply lines and engine interior - results in lowers fuel consumption clean burning and reduction in emissions such as rust, CO etc.

ERC Dynamic with BL-U 100 improves the performance of standard diesel to make it premium diesel and is especially well-suited for independent petrol stations or fleets. The Effect With its active performance ingredients, ERC Dynamic with BL-U 100 adapts normal diesel to the requirements of the latest engines and is especially interesting for petrol stations. The combination of active ingredients in ERC Dynamic with BL-U 100 increases the efficiency of diesel engines in a variety of ways. Thanks to ERC Dynamic with BL-U 100, there is also premium quality diesel at the petrol station. The Result Deposit Control Additivs (DCA) in ERC Dynamic with BL-U 100 clean and protect injection nozzles, the fuel system, and the engine interior. The increase of the cetane number assures improved cold start behaviour and smooth engine running. Corrosion is prevented and the service life of the engine is extended. The foam reducing agent enables quicker and more complete refuelling.

THE EFFECT The following factors accelerate the formation of sludge deposits (black sludge) in car engines: - Fuel-efficient, „lean-burn“ engine concepts - Inferior-quality petrol and engine oil - Extended driving at excessively low engine speeds THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE: - Removes sludge deposits (black sludge) within the engine - Ensures optimum lubrication - Prevents engine damage caused by blocked oil ducts

ERC Flow Guard is a flow improver that burns ash-free for heating oil during winter use, and is also effective in heating oil with a bio share of up to 20 %. The Effect Heating oil is already relatively winter-proof, but when it is very cold, the contained paraffins can separate and agglomerate. Consequently, they clog fuel lines and filters, in which case the heating system no longer runs properly or can even shut down. Flow Guard, flow enhancer which burns ash-free, counteracts this. The additive keeps paraffin crystals small and the heating oil retains is filtration and flow capacity.

ERC Flow Guard Premium is a flow enhancer with very good mixing behaviour for the use of diesel fuel and heating oil in the winter. THE EFFECT Heating oil and diesel fuel are already relatively winter-proof, but when it is very cold, the contained paraffins can separate and agglomerate. Consequently, they clog lines and filters, in which case the heating system or the engine no longer runs properly or can even shut down. THE RESULT ERC Flow Guard Premium contains so-called nucleating agents which are available in surplus in the cooling paraffin condensation cores. As a result, smaller growth crystals form instead of larger. The minuscule growth crystals can easily pass through lines and filters without causing clogging. In addition, a surface limiter envelops the paraffin crystals and keeps them in suspension. As a result, larger clumps cannot form at a later time, either.

grotamar ® 82 kills micro-organisms in diesel and heating oil quickly and reliably and thereby protects against malfunctions and damage in engines and heaters. THE EFFECT Water in the diesel, condensate water, and heat in the tank system provide conditions for the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeast. They form bio-sludge and organic acids which lead to filter clogging and corrosion. A failure of the engine or heating system is the result. By adding grotamar ® 82, the growth of micro-organisms can be prevented. THE RESULT grotamar ® 82 quickly kills microbial pests and effectively protects against corrosion. Expensive repairs are avoided. grotamar ® 82 was also successfully tested as an initial biocide by Öl-Wärme-Institut in an oil burner pump endurance test and fulfils the criteria catalogue for heating oil (extra light) additives.

ERC Guard Bio Thermic is the first TÜV tested high-performance additive for heating oils with up to 20% bio-components. With organic combustion enhancers, can be used in all DIN heating oils. The Effect ERC Guard Bio Thermic is the first high-performance additive certified by TÜV NORD for low-sulphur heating oil with a bio share of up to 20%, combination with high sulphur heating oil (1.000 ppm sulphur) is also problem-free. The comparative endurance test of TÜV NORD demonstrated the spectacular effect of ERC Guard Bio Thermic on the low-sulphur heating oil used in the test. There were no ageing products on the tank bottom and no corrosion. The Result ERC Guard Bio Thermic assures stable heating oil flow through the nozzle. Even after a burner operating time of 1,510 hours, there was no increase of exhaust gas losses. The heating system with heating oil without additives operating in parallel was then measured as an emissions 'polluter'.

ERC hydraulic tappet additive attenuates disturbing noises which can arise from dirty and gummed-up hydraulic tappets. The Effect Disturbing engine noises can arise from dirty and gummed-up hydraulic tappets. ERC hydraulic tappet additive attenuates the noise, cleans valve bores and improves the lubricating properties of the motor oil. ERC hydraulic tappet additive can be used with all motor oils for petrol and diesel engines. It is also suitable for catalytic converters and turbochargers. After adding it to the motor oil, the engine only has to be warmed up. Re-fill after each oil change. The benefits at a glance ERC hydraulic tappet additive: Attenuates noise created by dirty and gummed-up hydraulic tappets Cleans valve bores Improves the lubricating properties of the oil ERC hydraulic tappet additive can be added to the motor oil at any time. One bottle is sufficient for 4 litres of motor oil.

THE EFFECT: Lead compounds are added to the fuel in order to prevent engine pinking and valve damage. Older cars therefore have to run on leaded fuel some or all the time. THE ADVANTAGES AT A GLANCE: - Forms a protective layer on the valve heads and valve seats - Protects outlet valves against wear - Works against deposits on valves and sparking plugs - Protects the environment by lead-free operation ERC Lead Substitute is designed for regular application and for all grades of unleaded petrol. Dosing 1:1000/concentrate (e.g. content of 250ml-dosing bottle is sufficient for 250 liters petrol fuel).

ERC Guard Kinetic supplements light heating oil with additional characteristics which optimise it for stationary engines and enables the operation of diesel CHPs with more affordable heating oil. THE EFFECT ERC Guard Kinetic was specially developed for combined heat and power plants and other stationary engines which can be operated with any type of less expensive heating oil instead of diesel. The exclusively formulated combination of active ingredients lends the heating oil the characteristics which it lacks for effective and gentle operation in diesel engines. ERC Guard Kinetic is suitable for all heating oil types with a bio share of up to 20% and improves the characteristics of standard diesel. The heating oil with additive is primarily used for combined heat and power plants, from the macro to the mini, to the future micro CHPs designed for individual homes.
