Foreword This Malaysian Standard was developed by the Technical Committee on Petroleum Fuels under the authority of the Industry Standards Committee on Petroleum and Gas. MS 123 consists of the following parts, under the general title Diesel fuel - Specification: Part 1: EURO 2M Part 2: EURO 4M Major modifications in this revision are as follow: a) Provision is made for a maximum of 7 % (v/v) of palm methyl ester (PME) to be included

in diesel fuel. During the development of this standard, it is noted that specifications as recommended by ASEAN Automotive Federation cannot be fully adopted at this point of time. This Malaysian Standard cancels and replaces MS 123-2:2011 Diesel fuel - Specification - Part 1: EURO 4M. Compliance with a Malaysian Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

Diesel fuel - Specification - Part 2: Euro 4M (First revision)

1 Scope This Malaysian Standard specifies the requirements for diesel suitable for use in automotive, industrial and other diesel applications. 2 Normative references The documents and publications referred to in this standard are listed in Annex A. 3 Composition and properties 3.1 The diesel fuel shall consist of liquid hydrocarbons free from inorganic acid, grit, fibrous material and other foreign matters and shall meet the requirements in 3.2. It may contain small amounts of additives intended to improve some aspects of performance. 3.2 The diesel fuel shall comply with the requirements set out in Table 1 when tested by the methods indicated therein. 3.3 Palm Methyl Ester (PME) Diesel fuel may contain up to 7 % (V/V) of PME complying with MS 2008. Refer to NOTE 2 of Table 1. 4 Sampling 4.1 Sampling from storage tanks Sampling of the material shall be carried out in accordance with the procedure described in ASTM D 4057. 4.2 Sampling from fuel lines 4.2.1 Sampling cans Sampling cans (tin-plated) shall be of 5 L and 1 L capacity. Their construction shall comply with the appropriate safety requirements for cans that are to hold highly flammable material. 4.2.2 Preparation of cans A stock of cans shall be kept solely for the purpose of taking fuel samples. Before use, all cans shall be checked to ensure that they are sound and free from leaks. A fuel-resistant sealing washer in good condition shall be positioned in the cap.

4.2.3 Procedure Sampling can shall be rinsed with fuel from an offtake point. From the same offtake point, the fuel to be tested shall be carefully drawn into the sampling can using a clean dry funnel. The screw cap shall be fully tightened and the can is checked to ensure that there are no leaks. If more samples are needed, the operation shall be repeated immediately. 4.2.4 Labelling Full and legible information relating to the source of the sample shall be attached to the can in such a manner that it will not easily become detached subsequently. 5 Packing and marking 5.1 Packing 5.1.1 Containers The product shall be packed in suitable containers as agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier. 5.1.2 Bulk The product shall be delivered in road tankers, rail wagons, barges, ocean tankers, pipelines or other means as agreed upon between the purchaser and the vendor, in accordance with the appropriate legal requirements. 5.2 Marking and labelling 5.2.1 Marking of pumps and containers The following information shall be clearly and indelibly marked on each dispensing pump or container used for delivering the diesel fuel in sales transaction: a) the name, brand, or trademark if any, of the producer, supplier or marketer; b) the name of the diesel fuel; and c) any other information as required by government regulations. 5.3 Certification mark Each product, may by arrangement with a recognised certification body, be marked with the certification mark of that body, provided the product conforms to the requirements of this standard.
