This European Standard describes requirements and test methods for marketed and delivered paraffinic diesel fuel containing up to a level of 7 % (V/V) fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), for use in diesel engine vehicles. It defines two classes of paraffinic diesel fuel: high cetane and normal cetane.
Paraffinic diesel fuel originates from synthesis or hydrotreatment processes.
This European Standard describes the quality for use as automotive fuel for diesel engines for captive fleets or dedicated vehicle usage. Captive fleets are in general considered as a group of vehicles that possess specific supply logistics, their own dedicated facilities for storage and distribution and adequate maintenance of the vehicles.
NOTE 1For general diesel engine warranty, paraffinic automotive diesel fuel may need a validation step, which for some existing engines may still need to be done (see also the Introduction to this document).
NOTE 2For the purposes of this document, the terms % (m/m) and % (V/V) are used to represent respectively the mass fraction and the volume fraction.
