Changes To Heavy Fuel Flow Rate Requirements{1250}
Usage:
3606 (8RB),
3608 (6MC),
3612 (9RC),
3616 (1PD) Engines In Heavy Fuel Applications
In heavy fuel applications, Caterpillar recommends the fuel circulating pumps, for fuel delivery and return, be sized to deliver a MINIMUM of four times the Burn Rate (fuel in minus fuel out) of the engine. The "four times the Burn Rate" flow should be used for sizing all components (off engine fuel filters, fuel heater, fuel pumps, etc.). The increase in fuel flow from three times the Burn Rate to four time the Burn Rate will NOT require a change in the 4P-0448, 7E-4479, or 119-8900 Fuel Filter Groups (Vokes Residual Fuel).
