SOLAR Optima Series Diesel Engine Oils 15W40 API CH-4
Description
A high grade lubricant developed for high speed, four-stroke engines to meet 1998 exhaust emission standards. Formulated with advanced additive technology, it provides excellent all weather protection and controls the emissions in high speed engines.
Available API
CH-4
CH-4/SL
Applications
API CH-4 was developed for diesel engines without after-treatment emission systems. They can be used
with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur content up to 0.5% weight. API CH-4 approved oils are backward
compatible and are superior in performance to API CF-4, CF, CE, CD oils. Can be used in all land based
diesel engines including:
- Diesel powered large trucks, buses and construction machinery.
- Light duty diesel cars, vans and buses.
- Naturally aspirated and turbocharged diesel engines.
Features & Benefits
- High thermal and oxidation stability.
- Proven metallo-organic anti-wear additive system protects engines under all operating conditions.
- Excellent soot handling capability allowing for extended drain interval.
- Optimum performance over a wide range of operating conditions.
- Very good detergency and dispersancy ability to keep the engine clean and efficient control of sludge and soot deposits
