European Norm EN 590 / ULSD 10ppm specifies the limits for various properties of diesel fuel with a maximum sulfur content of 10 parts per million (ppm). The standard limits the cetane number to a minimum of 51, density to between 0.82-0.845 kg/L, sulfur content to a maximum of 10 mg/kg, and recovered distillation to below 65% at 250C and a 95% point of below 360C. The fuel must also meet limits for viscosity, oxidation stability, lubricity, and contaminants like particulate matter and water.
