Fuel saver for Maritime transport
ECOLOW has developed a fuel saving device for maritime transport, which allows maritime companies to actively act on their budget and their environmental impact by reducing fuel consumption.
Whether it is for merchant marine, fishing boats or pleasure craft, but also for your harbour handling equipment, the system is adaptable and interchangeable. Our unique technology acts directly on the fuel (NRD*) to optimise its calorific value and its combustion when mixed with air.
The ECOLOW device is 100% patented and approved in Europe, it is a non-invasive technology: no intervention on the engine components, you keep the integrity of your machines and their supplier guarantees. Certified CE, SEEE, CEM, we are the only ones to offer this specificity on the aftermarket of “fuel economy” accessories.
As a sustainable development player in various sectors, we are actively involved in reducing pollution from maritime transport and respect our commitments right down to the design of the enclosure in compliance with RoHS standards.
*It should be noted that on certain cold weather fuels (NRD) the result is reduced or even cancelled out.
Our ECOLOW device – Technical characteristics
Our technology has taken years of research and testing to provide you with a practical system that offers real energy savings. The installation is simple and the module is interchangeable from one machine to another.
Guaranteed for 2 years, with no maintenance required, the module has proven itself on all types of fuel (NRD, diesel, petrol), excluding anti-freeze additives, even in other sectors. The requirements? A constant engine speed, running for more than an hour to exploit the module’s capabilities. You optimise the performance of your engines and reduce your CO2, NOx and HC emissions.
Average savings of up to 15% on non-road diesel have been reported and benefits such as this satisfied customer, after installing the module on a Kalmar port handling machine.
Installation in Cayenne harbor facilities
APM TERMINALS
These type of gear are used in harbor around the world to unload containers, operating from 11 to 15 hours per day, or approximately 1700 hours per year. The use of the ECOLOW fuel saver has reduced fuel consumption by 34% on the KALMARs at the port of Cayenne in French Guiana, from 17.5 litres per hour to 11.5 litres. This, represents an annual saving of 10,200 litres of fuel. An exceptional result given the current rise in diesel prices.
Other examples of installations on port equipment
After several trials and installations of the Ecolow module on the equipment of the ship-owner CMA-CGM in the port of Cayenne in Guadeloupe, significant savings and performance gains have been observed.
