The D2500 Cloud Point method determines the temperature at which fuel particles begin to visibly form a cloud of crystalline fuel molecules, but fuel flow is not yet completely restricted. For diesel and diesel blends, the Cloud Point gives an indication of where the Cold Filter Plug Point (D6371) may be, which is typically only a few degrees lower than the Cloud Point. At the Plug Point temperature, fuel flow is restricted. This test is suitable for biodiesel, diesel, and diesel blends.
