Environmental Fleet Services Deploys SMARTmaintenance System for Heavy Duty Diesel Engines in Ecuador
Environmental Fleet Services and its Ecuadorian distributor, Cepi, S.A., announced today that they had deployed the SMARTmaintenance system for heavy duty diesel engines in Ecuador. SMARTmaintenance is an integrated approach to improving engine efficiency and performance, reducing costs and eliminating waste products.
(PRWEB) February 18, 2005 -- Environmental Fleet Services (EFS), of Los Angeles, California, and Cepi S.A., of Quito Ecuador, today announced the availability of its SMARTmaintenance system for heavy-duty diesel engines in Ecuador. This is a first time in South America that a high-efficiency and low-cost maintenance system is available that will provide proven reductions in both operating costs, fuel consumption and harmful pollutants.
The SMARTmaintenance system that was designed for the Ecuadorian market starts with the companys patented Universal Diesel Liquefier (UDL). The UDL using proven technology and without engine modification heats diesel fuel to the optimum atomizing temperature. This results in a fuel burn that is more efficient and produces significantly less pollutants. Equipment operators using the UDL can expect decreased fuel consumption of 8% to 12%.
The SMARTmaintenance program also includes an advanced air filtration system that uses a combination of air pre-cleaners and reusable air filters. The reusable air filters actually provide better air flow to engines and greater cleaning ability than conventional paper filters. When combined with a pre-cleaner up to 99% of harmful dirt and dust are filtered out of intake air. For fleet operators this means that air filters last longer between cleanings (up to 30,000 miles or a full year) and never have to be replaced. Thus, cutting down on waste and reducing operation costs.
Commenting on the deployment of the SMARTmaintenance system in Ecuador, COO Richard Oberreiter, noted that, Our company is very proud that we have been able to deliver a system to Ecuadors fleet operators that reduces pollution and increases engine operating efficiency. Reducing pollution in an economical manner is particularly challenging in a high-altitude environment such as in Quito and our systems have proven to be the best overall solution."
The mission of EFS is to develop and implement US and international regulatory compliant solutions for eliminating waste and pollution from combustions engines, while improving operating performance and efficiency. SMARTmaintenances products are made from 100% recyclable materials. These systems reduce operating costs and labor draining maintenance practices as much as 90%, while eliminating the need to stock large inventories of disposable products.
