Synthetic-blend, high performance diesel engine oil designed to meet current ACEA reguirements and more challenging OEM specifications for Euro IV and V compliant diesel vehicles not fitted with diesel particulate filters.
Formulated with ISOSYN Technology, an optimized synthetic and mineral base oil blend plus specialized additives to provide reliable long oil drain performance and protection.
  • Reduced maintenance costs Highly effective detergent additive system minimizes piston crown land deposits which can lead to damaging bore polishing. High base number minimizes corrosive wear in those areas where medium to high sulphur fuel is still encountered
  • Maximizes engine life Proven metallo-organic anti-wear additive system reduces wear in severe service by forming a protective layer on all metal contact surfaces. Wide-range SAE 10W-40 multigrade viscosity ensures reduced friction at start-up and maximum lubricity at high operating temperatures.
  • Long oil drain intervals Exceptional high temperature stability minimizes degradation that leads to sludge formation and oil thickening, and provides oil service intervals up to the maximum levels recommended for Euro II and Euro III type engines.
  • Low oil consumption Highly shear-stable viscosity index improvers prevent oil flow through the piston rings by maintaining oil viscosity in the high temperature ring belt area, while special low volatility base fluids minimize evaporative oil loss.
  • Naturally aspirated and turbocharged high speed, four-stroke diesel engines
  • Diesel engines meeting Euro V or earlier emission requirements not fitted with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF)
  • Commercial road transport in light, medium and heavy-duty service
  • Off-highway vehicles
  • Many European diesel engine manufacturers recommend oil drain intervals of up to 100,000 - 150,000km where oils meeting ACEA E4 or appropriate OEM specifications are used. However, such extended oil drain intervals should only be applied where service conditions match ideal European duty cycles and fuel sulfur levels. In most areas in which Caltex brand products are sold this is unlikely.
  • The higher fuel consumption, higher fuel sulfur levels and more severe operating conditions (such as dustiness, higher loads, and rougher surfaces) generally encountered in these areas mandate, for all diesel engine oils, reduced service intervals versus those used in more ideal environments. If operators adjust drain intervals to compensate for these service factors, Delo XLD Multigrade can deliver proportionate benefits in terms of lower maintenance and lower engine life cycle costs.
  • For vehicles fitted with exhaust clean up devices of the diesel particulate trap type, lubricants conforming to low-SAPS (sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur) requirements should be employed.
