(1) Regional regulations, national regulations, or international regulations can require a fuel with a specific sulfur limit. Consult all applicable regu-
lations before selecting a fuel for a given engine application. Perkins fuel systems and engine components can operate on high sulphur fuels.
Fuel sulfur levels affect exhaust emissions. High sulfur fuels also increase the potential for corrosion of internal components. Fuel sulfur levels
above 0.05% may significantly shorten the oil change interval. For additional information, refer to this manual, Sulfur section, and service inter-
val with high sulphur fuel.
(2) A minimum 45 cetane number is recommended for operations in cold weather below 0° C (32° F)ambient and high altitude.
(3) "Via standards tables, the equivalent API gravity for the minimum density of 801 kg / m
3
density of 876 kg / m is 30".
(4) The values of the fuel viscosity are the values as the fuel is delivered to the fuel injection pumps. Fuel should also meet the minimum viscosity
requirement and the fuel should meet the maximum viscosity requirements at 40°C (104°F) of either the "ASTM D445" test method or the
"ISO 3104" test method. If a fuel with a low viscosity is used, cooling of the fuel may be required to maintain "1.4 cSt"or greater viscosity at the
fuel injection pump. Fuels with a high viscosity might require fuel heaters in order to lower the viscosity to "1.4 cSt" at the fuel injection pump.
(5) Follow the test conditions and procedures for gasoline (motor).
(6) Refer to the lubricity section within this Fuel Recommendation Section.
