Neches-Gulf Marine, Inc. installed an FS-3 Fuel Saver model on the company's 65-foot (20 meters) tugboats, and on generators (gensets) of an 185-foot (56 meters) offshore supply vessel.
During the 18 months following installation, diesel fuel consumption levels dropped from an average of 36 gph (136 lph) to 31.5 gph (119 lph), a 12.5 percent savings. The savings covered the cost of the FS-3 Fuel Saver unit in less than 30 days!
RKP Transport - Australian Road Train operates between Brisbane and Perth, Australia, a distance of 6 317 miles (10,166 km). The company had reduced the original 625hp truck engines to 565hp to conserve fuel.
After installing the Fuel Saver, the owners restored the original horsepower AND also achieved greater than 16 percent savings in fuel use.
Goya Foods, Puerto Rico achieved a two-week payback after adding Fuel Savers on eight 300hp boilers. The units treat number six (#6) diesel fuel at the rate of 6 gpm (22.7 lpm), serving 52,416 gallons annually!
