Engineered for Demanding Fracking Operations

🚨 The Problem: Premature Injector Failure on MTU Fracking Engines

Fracking rigs running MTU engines were experiencing accelerated injector wear and failure, even with multiple stages of primary filtration.

The root cause: micro‑contaminants below the capture range of traditional filters were still circulating through the fuel system, damaging precision injectors and driving up maintenance costs and downtime.

⚙️ The Solution: DFP Super‑Filtration System Using Dieselcraft Centrifuges

DFP engineered a high‑efficiency, filter‑less fuel cleaning system built around a pair of Dieselcraft low‑viscosity centrifuges.

These centrifuges generate extreme G‑forces to remove sub‑micron particles, including:

•             Wear metals

•             Fine sand and silica

•             Carbon fines

•             Micro‑sludge

•             Water‑borne solids

Unlike filters, the centrifuge does not clog, restrict flow, or require constant replacement.

Performance: Removes contaminants below 1 micron, far beyond the capability of standard primary and secondary filters.

The Result: Verified Contaminant Removal Beyond Expectations

The customer confirmed that the Dieselcraft‑based system delivered cleanliness levels far exceeding their expectations, eliminating the micro‑particulates responsible for injector failure.

With the success of the system, the operator now plans to install Mini‑FCC (Fuel Cleaning Centrifuge) units directly on rig fuel tanks to maintain ultra‑clean fuel at the source.

💡 Why Dieselcraft Centrifugal Fuel Cleaning Works

•             Filter‑less design — no cartridges, no clogging, no bypass

•             High‑G separation — captures particles traditional filters miss

•             Continuous cleaning — maintains consistent fuel quality

•             Ideal for high‑duty MTU engines where injector precision is critical

•             Low maintenance — simple bowl cleaning instead of filter changes

📈 Protect Your Injectors. Protect Your Engine. Protect Your Bottom Line.

Dieselcraft centrifuges deliver super‑clean fuel, extending injector life, reducing downtime, and improving reliability in the harshest fracking environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What problem does the Fuel Cleaning Centrifuge solve?

MTU engines on fracking rigs were experiencing premature injector failure caused by micro‑contaminants that traditional filters cannot capture. Even with multiple primary filters, particles below 1 micron were still circulating through the fuel system and damaging injectors.

How does the Dieselcraft centrifuge remove contaminants that filters miss?

The centrifuge spins fuel at extremely high G‑forces, separating solids by density rather than pore size. This allows it to remove sub‑micron particles, including silica, carbon fines, wear metals, and sludge—contaminants far too small for standard filters to catch

What size particles can the centrifuge remove?

The Dieselcraft low‑viscosity centrifuge removes particles below 1 micron, delivering fuel cleanliness levels beyond the capability of any traditional filter system.

Does the centrifuge use disposable filter elements?

No. The system is 100% filter‑less. There are no cartridges to replace, no media to clog, and no bypass risk. Maintenance consists of periodically cleaning the centrifuge rotor.

Can this system be installed directly on rig fuel tanks?

Yes. Based on field results, operators plan to install Mini‑FCC systems directly on rig fuel tanks to maintain ultra‑clean fuel at the source and prevent injector damage before it starts.

Is the system compatible with high‑flow fracking operations?

Yes. The Dieselcraft centrifuge is designed for continuous, high‑duty operation and performs reliably in harsh environments where fuel quality is critical.
