Fuel and Lubricant Solutions
Big tasks require maximum power to be available on demand. With poor quality fuel, deposits can slowly build up inside your engine. Accumulating over time, these deposits ultimately prevent the motor system from exploiting its full potential and delivering its optimal performance. The cure? KEROPUR®!
BASF’s high performance diesel fuel additive KEROPUR® D provides an impressive “cleaning effect” to help remove and prevent performance-limiting deposits at the heart of your vehicle. Beyond that, KEROPUR® D boosts the cetane number of your diesel fuel.
So ensure you’ve got the power when you need it!
KEROPUR® D multifunctional diesel fuel additives ensure your diesel engine is clean and protect the entire fuel system. The additives remove already existing deposits (clean-up effect) and prevent the formation of new deposits (keep-clean effect). KEROPUR® D also improves the diesel’s cetane number which leads to an improved ignition and smoother combustion process.
Performance benefits, enabled by KEROPUR® D, have been proven in a wide range of engine and on-road tests – conducted, amongst others, by BASF’s Competence Center Fuels & Lubes in Ludwigshafen, Germany. Your clean engine will not only result in a longer engine life – you will also benefit from the better start-up and driving behavior, having restored the full potential of your engine. The boosted cetane number enables a better and quieter start-up even at low temperatures.
Reliable Efficiency
KEROPUR® D supports the use of all common diesel fuels and significantly improves stability of fuels with various biodiesel content. By boosting your fuel’s performance, you will also be able to reduce your engine’s fuel consumption which in consequence also means less emissions.
BASF RECOMMENDS KEROPUR® D FOR USE IN AUDI, BMW, DAIMLER, PORSCHE, VOLVO CARS, VW AND OTHERS.
KEROPUR® D CAN BE EASILY APPLIED DURING YOUR REGULAR STOP AT THE GAS STATION!
Deposit formation on valve, piston and needle resulting in:
External spray hole deposits
Nozzles of modern diesel engines have a very small sprayhole diameter: Hundreds of micrometers or even smaller. Inside the spray holes, deposits may form and reduce the amount of injected fuel. The reduction of injected fuel causes powerloss of the engine.
