PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL SAE 30 Synthetic Diesel Oil is a super heavy-duty diesel lubricant
chemically designed for use in commercial and industrial applications
where requirements call for a CF, CF-2 or SH lubricant. AMSOIL Diesel Oil
is recommended for virtually every diesel application, including truck
fleets, mining, earth moving, farming and stationary engines. In every
engine tested (including Detroit Diesel, Caterpillar, Cummins and Mack),
the advanced 12 TBN additive system of AMSOIL Diesel Oil significantly
reduced ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, cylinder liner wear, oil
consumption, piston deposits and ring breakage. The extended drain
intervals allowable with AMSOIL Diesel Oil reduce vehicle downtime and
waste oil disposal costs.
Reduces Oil
Consumption
AMSOIL Diesel Oil loses only 6.3 percent of its mass to high temperature
volatility. Conventional oils often lose over 15 percent. Due to its low
volatility, AMSOIL Diesel Oil maintains a low rate of oil consumption and
hydrocarbon emissions and retains its original viscosity after high
temperature service for continued dependable protection and excellent fuel
economy.
Resists
Oxidation and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL Diesel Oil resists oil breakdown from heat, blowby chemicals and
oxygen up to ten times longer than do conventional oils. AMSOIL Diesel Oil
resists forming sludge and varnish deposits, which contribute to
corrosion, decreased fuel efficiency and increased engine wear. AMSOIL
Diesel Oil doesn't thicken like conventional oils, but maintains its
viscosity, providing peak engine performance and extended drain intervals.
Also, the advanced heat transfer capabilities and high lubricity of AMSOIL
Diesel Oil reduces the operating temperatures of engines and
transmissions.
Extended Drain
Intervals
AMSOIL Diesel Oil is formulated for extended drain intervals. Its unique
synthetic formulation, improved detergent/dispersant capabilities and long
drain additive package ensures maximum engine protection, cleanliness and
performance over extended drain periods. In addition, the advanced 12 TBN
additive package of AMSOIL Diesel Oil neutralizes acids and keeps the
engine clean and in top-running condition.
Provides Low
Temperature Protection
AMSOIL Diesel Oil remains fluid at temperatures as low as -39°C (-38°F).
AMSOIL Diesel Oil circulates rapidly to all engine parts to provide
immediate cold start protection. The ability of AMSOIL Diesel Oil to
lubricate at low temperatures greatly reduces wear and increases engine
life.
Improves Fuel
Economy and Reduces Emissions
The premium quality synthetic base stocks in AMSOIL Diesel Oil provide a
tough lubricating film on all engine parts, reducing friction and fuel
consumption. Reduced fuel consumption also means less exhaust emissions.
Prevents Rust
and Corrosion
AMSOIL Diesel Oil contains special rust-inhibiting additives to reduce
rust, which makes it ideal for equipment stored long term.
APPLICATION
AMSOIL SAE 30 Synthetic Diesel Oil exceeds the following engine tests.
- API Service CF, CF-2, SH
- ACEA/CCMC D4, PD2
- MIL-L-2104F
- Caterpillar Powershift Trans. TO-2 and
TO-3
- Allison C-3 and C-4
- Mack EO-L
- M.A.N. 270
- Mercedes-Benz AG 227.0, 228.0
- Scania Long Drain
- Volvo VDS
- VW 505.00
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Diesel Oil is compatible with petroleum lubricants; however, mixing
AMSOIL Diesel Oil with a conventional oil will shorten the drain period of
the AMSOIL Diesel Oil. Diesel oil additives or after-market products are
not recommended for use with AMSOIL Diesel Oil.
SERVICE LIFE
In diesel engines, fleet vehicle engines and industrial engines, such as
stationary gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals up to three times as
long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer as long as extended
drains are supported by the findings of a used oil analysis program.
In personal cars and light trucks with
non-turbocharged gasoline engines and marine craft: drain oil at intervals
up to three times as long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer
or at one-year intervals, whichever comes first.
In turbocharged gasoline engines: drain
oil at intervals up to twice as long as engine manufacturers' recommended
drain intervals or at one-year intervals, whichever comes first.
In high performance and racing engines:
change oil based on the findings of oil analysis.
In motorcycles, ATVs and related gasoline
engines: drain oil at engine manufacturer's recommended drain interval.
If the vehicle is equipped with an AMSOIL
Oil Filter, the filter should be changed at 12,500-mile or six-month
intervals (whichever comes first) in gasoline engines and 7000-mile or
six-month intervals (whichever comes first) in diesel engines. Non-AMSOIL
oil filters should be changed at the engine manufacturer's recommended
filter change intervals.
