Light Diesel Oil
Light diesel oil, or LDO, is a blend of components from the distillation process of crude oil, mainly used as a combustion agent in asphalt plants, primarily utilised in construction and other medium speed engine machines. It is used in engines with a rpm less than 750, such as boilers and furnaces. It is also referred to as marked oil or distillate fuel. The Light Diesel Oil (LDO) is provided in multiple packaging and at fair prices.
Applications of Light Diesel Oil
Light Diesel Oil is used as fuel for varied applications including furnaces, boilers, pump sets used for irrigation and fertilizer plants. It is popular for being cost-effective in nature and assuring safe use. It is recommended for stationary or slow speed diesel engines and also as Industrial Fuel. It is used in medium and slow speed diesel engines with less than 750 rpm, typically.This oil offered by us is said to have uniform consistency with long shelf life. It ensures excellent performance due to its excellent lubricating properties.
