Your defence in the most extreme conditions
Product Description
Tru-Blu Artic Defence is an ashless cold flow improver additive which improves operability for a range of diesel and biodiesel fuels and blends, at low temperatures. Used throughout the cold regions of Australia by Oil Companies, Fuel Terminals and end users in stationary and mobile diesel engine equipment. Diesel fuels from many different origins contain varying amounts of wax which will crystallise and gel below certain temperatures.
Tru-Blu Artic Defence inhibits and modifies wax crystal growth, offering effective cold flow management for many of the currently available diesel fuels and blends.
Best results for reducing Cold Filter Plugging Point are achieved when diesel/heating oil blends/(winter/alpine/ highland diesel) & Tru-Blu Artic Defence at efficient treat rates are employed.
Applications

Additional Information
It is important to add the Tru-Blu Artic Defence to the fuel when the temperature of the fuel is above its cloud point. Dose the fuel at the fuel depot or directly into the diesel engine fuel tank.
Add the Tru-Blu Artic Defence to the fuel prior to topping up with the new fuel delivery. The turbulence will successfully mix the Tru-Blu Artic Defence through the fuel.
Alternatively the Tru-Blu Artic Defence can be added at any time to the fuel in storage and action of recirculating will ensure adequate dispersion.
