Overview
HiTEC® 4569 is a diesel performance additive designed to significantly enhance cold-weather operability for middle distillate fuels. This innovative additive contains specialized cold flow improvers that prevent the formation of wax crystals that can lead to blockages. Doing so considerably boosts the overall low-temperature operability of fuel systems. HiTEC® 4569 also lowers the cold filter plugging point (CFPP), ensuring that engines and equipment remain functional, even under harsh winter conditions, and lowers the pour point to reduce or eliminate the requirement for kerosene for improved flow. Industries reliant on consistent fuel performance during colder months have a reliable solution at hand. HiTEC® 4569 is diluted for easier blending into fuel.

Effectively depresses pour point, reducing the need to use kerosene dilutions for pour or flow control
Problems Solved
Wax formation and crystal growth in diesel fuels pose significant challenges, particularly during the colder months. When wax crystals form in fuel at lower temperatures, they can clog filters and fuel lines, leading to poor engine performance and potential vehicle malfunctions. Consequently, operators often face increased maintenance requirements and the risk of equipment downtime. Poor low-temperature fuel performance can further exacerbate these issues by reducing the efficiency and reliability of fuel systems, which are critical in maintaining operational integrity in cold conditions. Excessive kerosene consumption is another concern, as it is commonly used to manage these issues, which can result in increased costs and environmental impact.
