    Based on the ES9-98 Liquid Fuel Specification document provided, here is a specification

    sheet that can be used to verify if the diesel you intend to use for the Solar T130 turbine
    meets the recommended quality and contaminant limits.

    Diesel Fuel Quality Requirements for Solar T130 Operation

    Viscosity (Kinematic) 1 - 12 cSt at 100°F ASTM D445


    Contaminant Limits

    Contaminant Maximum Limit Test Method

    Water ≤ 0.25 cc per liter ASTM D6304

    Sodium & Potassium ≤ 0.5 ppm ASTM D3605, D7111

    Solids < 2.6 mg/L, max particle < 10µm ASTM D6217

    Calcium & Magnesium See Table 1 limits ASTM D3605, D511, D7111
