Generator Owners
and Service/Dealers

Overcoming this fuels challenge is a must for everyone in the generator business

Whether it's the generator (or system) owner or the service partner working with a customer base, Bell Fuel & Tank Services (Bell FTS) supports them with the right tools and the right approach for successful generator operation.

Because the fuels have changed so much, meaning generator care has changed so much, the Bell FTS program uses an industry-leading hybrid approach to generator fuel and storage tank issues. This means Bell FTS customers and partners have access to the most complete and effective solution available.

The Hybrid Approach To Combating Generator Problems

What's the hybrid approach to combat generator problems? It's recognizing that the best way to take care of generators and the fuel from which its problems arise is through the three-pronged approach of chemicals, mechanical fuel care, and testing.  One of these alone isn't enough. You need all three of these elements.

Talk to a fuel additive company and they might say that fuel additives can do anything you need. Chemical fuel treatment do offer important benefits that proper generator (and fuel) care shouldn't ignore. They can help generators stay problem-free and ready for critical action.  The best fuel treatment chemistries can prevent serious problems with microbes and MIC tank corrosion as well as keeping the fuel in optimal condition and, in addition, playing an important role in helping the generator run at its best. Biocides and dispersant treatments are important chemical treatments to eliminate destructive microbe problems that may otherwise compromise emergency generator operation. Cetane improvers give better diesel generator performance. Water eliminators to help combat water problems in generator fuel storage tanks. Sludge dispersants and anti-corrosion protectants round out the best practice chemical options for better storage tank health for generators.  

Chemical treatments are one of the three important pillars necessary for generator owners and servicers. Yet, chemicals don't solve every problems. The Hybrid Approach from Bell FTS keeps you from falling into that trap. 

Bell Fuel & Tank Services also provides the best mechanical tank services and fuel problem mediation, covering the essential elements of generator fuel health that fuel treatment chemicals can help with but can’t achieve alone.

That’s part of the Bell FTS difference. Generator owners and service providers get what they need without wasting time and critical budget resources on things they don’t.

But we haven't mentioned the third prong of the Hybrid Aproach - testing.  In this approach, the essential chemical and mechanical elements are supported by state-of-the-art fuel and tank testing, as well as next-generation microbial detection and monitoring - all done to create a clearer picture both of whether the generator’s fuel is currently healthy AND what direction it’s heading toward.

Bell Fuel & Tank Services works to ensure that everyone involved knows what’s going on with the condition of their tanks and the fuel that their generators rely on. This fuel PM approach from Bell Fuel & Tank Services gives generator owners and service providers the best practice tools and resource they need to get the most from their backup generators.
