of all sizes with the same care.
We work seamlessly with the boat owner's team, with one common goal:
"to ensure the boat owner's complete satisfaction"
Fuel and Tank Cleaning
In order to maintain the quality of fuel filled into boat tanks, regular filtration and cleaning of the tanks are required. Humidity in fuel tanks due to temperature produces water in the fuel over time and causes bacteria to form. Water and sediment formation begins at the bottom of the tank due to microorganisms and particles, and suspended water droplets form in the fuel. Over time, both the fuel quality decreases and its color deteriorates, and it clogs the injectors in the system where it is used, causing malfunctions. In order to prevent this, maintenance of fuel tanks is required. As Protam Yacht, while providing continuous maintenance with the Diesel Filtration system, we enable you to remove the sediment and water at the bottom of the tank and get rid of the water in the fuel with our own production Tank Cleaning System.
Contamination in the tank and fuel can cause the following problems:
- Reduces the quality of the fuel
- Reduces the performance of the machine
- Pumps and injectors are damaged
- Produces corrosive acids and damages the fuel tank
- Produces toxic gas
- Fuel consumption increases
- The capacity of the fuel tank decreases
- The fuel loses its properties
- Tank parts and equipment connected to the tank frequently fail
- Filters become clogged very quickly
Fuel Filtration
Fuel filtration is a technological cleaning process that removes water and particles from stored diesel fuel. This process keeps the fuel in top condition and helps prevent fuel-related engine and generator failures. There are many different stages in the fuel filtration process that follow each other in a specific order. The system ensures that the fuel is free of water, sludge, sediment, bacteria and other contaminants. Our diesel filtration systems not only improve fuel quality by eliminating bacterial content and separating particles, but are also environmentally friendly as no chemicals or biocides are used in this process.

“For a large-scale repair, a 'passionate' approach is crucial to pre-plan and execute every move.”
Tank Cleaning System
All fuel tanks accumulate sediment and water at the bottom! We have devices designed for the bottom cleaning of diesel fuel tanks without human entry into the tank. All fuels start to form sediment at the bottom of the tank after a certain period of time. In addition, the water that settles due to density is also found in this area. Dust, rust, bacteria, solid particles turn into mud after a while. The safest and most effective way to get rid of these contaminants and water is to clean the tank bottom.
Fuel cleaning without emptying the tank and entering the tank!
- It is the ideal solution to clean diesel and gasoline fuel tanks together with the fuel.
- No human entry into the tank is required.
- Removes water, bacteria, rust and solid particles.
- Ex-proof pneumatic or electric pump options.
- Removal of settled or suspended water from the fuel.
- Special filters designed for fuel.
- Stainless steel filter container.
With the tank cleaning system
- You get rid of water and mud at the bottom of the tank.
- You prevent microbiological growth.
- You protect your tank from corrosion.
- You do not need to drain the fuel in the tank.
- You are protected from clogged filters and injector failures.
- You maintain the efficiency of the fuel.
