Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

PETRONAS Arbor Alfaprime 15W-40 is a premium engine oil dedicated to agricultural and construction machinery, protecting against oxidation, decomposition and wear while keeping optimal piston cleanliness and viscosity stability for a longer service life. It is a low SAPS oil suitable for Tier 4 heavy-duty diesel applications, including modern low-emission engines fitted with DPF, SCR, DOC and EGR after-treatment systems, and it also suits older turbocharged and naturally aspirated diesel engines running on high or ultra-low sulphur diesel and biodiesel. It maintains optimal viscosity for reliable lubrication, resists high mechanical stress, and combats soot build-up while giving good low-temperature viscosity for start-up. It meets API CJ-4 and ACEA E7/E9 specifications and CAT ECF-3/ECF-2/ECF-1a, with Cummins CES 20081, Deutz DQC III-10 LA and Renault RLD-3 approvals, plus Detroit Diesel DFS93K218, MAN M3575, MACK EO-O Premium Plus, MB 228.31 and Volvo VDS-4 performance levels.

Applications

• PETRONAS Arbor Alfaprime 15W-40 is a low-SAPS oil suitable for Tier 4 heavy-duty diesel applications, including modern, high-output, low-emission engines fitted with emission control systems using DPF, SCR, DOC and EGR technologies.
• It is also suitable for older turbocharged and naturally aspirated diesel engine generations running on high- or ultra-low-sulphur diesel and biodiesel.

Performance & benefits

• Maintains oil at optimal viscosity levels, delivering optimal lubrication to prevent unplanned breakdowns.
• Better fluid-film resistance under severe mechanical stress, delivering enhanced engine durability.
• Optimal protection for emission after-treatment systems such as DPF and DOC, thanks to a low-ash additive system.
• Reduces the acidic levels that lead to corrosion, making engines more durable and longer-lived.
• Enhanced thermal and oxidation stability at high temperature, providing viscosity stability and preventing the formation of deposits and sludge, to prolong oil life even under severe conditions.
• Effectively combats high concentrations of soot build-up, critical to prevent loss of vehicle horsepower.
• Good low-temperature viscosity for improved lubrication during start-up.
