SILKOLENE VISCOR CALIBRATION FLUIDS

Calibration fluids for diesel fuel pumps & injectors

Description
Accurate and precise setting of pumps and injectors is essential in ensuring that a diesel engine delivers its designed power output and is also necessary to meet current and future emission regulations.

Advantages/Benefits
Purpose formulated for the calibration of diesel injectors and fuel pumps Very close manufacturing tolerances Low odour Full range of products to suit all applications Oxidation inhibitors prevent lacquer and deposit formation

Application
SILKOLENE VISCOR CALIBRATION FLUIDS are controlled within the very tight viscosity and specific gravity limits necessary to ensure the accurate setting of diesel engine fuel pumps and injectors. Inhibitors are incorporated to protect all materials normally found in a fuel system against corrosion, to minimise foaming and to guard against deposit formation. Service life is enhanced by regular monitoring since it is essential that the fluid is maintained within its design tolerances with respect to viscosity and specific gravity. All SILKOLENE Calibration Fluids may be used in certain hydraulic applications and for the lubrication of close tolerance spindle bearings where the viscosity is appropriate.

Specifications
VISCOR 1487 - a low viscosity product intended for use in the most modern equipment and is approved by Lucas-CAV, Cummins, Stanadyne, etc. VISCOR 1487 AW-2 has similar characteristics to VISCOR 1487, but incorporates additional antiwear protection and is approved for use in equipment manufactured by Robert Bosch.
