Manufacturer's description

Mobilgard M330 is the SAE 30 grade of the Mobilgard M30 Series, premium, extra high performance 30 TBN engine oils designed for the most severe residual-fuelled medium-speed diesel applications in marine and stationary power industries. Formulated with high performance additive detergent technology, these trunk piston engine oils provide outstanding residual fuel compatibility for excellent engine cleanliness, especially in the crankcase, camshaft areas, ring belt and piston undercrowns, along with excellent high-temperature oxidation and thermal stability, low volatility, high load-carrying properties and corrosion protection. The series suits most medium-speed trunk piston engine applications, including main propulsion and auxiliary engines on deep-sea vessels, main propulsion engines on coastal and river ships, and stationary power plants, developed through ExxonMobil's patented DAC (Detecting Asphaltene Contamination) Test. Its relatively high alkalinity reserves provide excellent neutralisation of the strong acids resulting from high sulphur fuels that reach the crankcase, protecting against oil degradation and ring, cylinder and bearing corrosion, particularly benefiting engines with low crankcase oil consumption or low cylinder liner temperatures. Mobilgard M330 offers high performance thermal and oxidation stability, excellent TBN retention and resistance to viscosity increase over long operating periods, a high level of engine cleanliness and wear protection, and excellent lube/fuel compatibility with easy separation from water. Typical properties: kinematic viscosity 12 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 107, TBN 30 mgKOH/g, sulfated ash 3.8%, flash point 244 °C, pour point -6 °C. The other grade in the series is Mobilgard M430 (SAE 40).

Applications

• Mobilgard M30 Series oils can be used in most medium-speed trunk-piston engine applications.
• They are recommended for main-propulsion and auxiliary engines on deep-sea vessels, main-propulsion engines on coastal and river ships, and stationary power plants.
• This Series is the result of an extensive research and development programme, incorporating ExxonMobil's patented DAC (Detecting Asphaltene Contamination) test.
• Mobilgard M30 Series oils are designed to meet the needs of engines operating on heavy fuel.
• They are recommended for the latest model medium-speed diesel engines and are especially beneficial in engines with low crankcase oil consumption or operating at low cylinder-liner temperatures.
• Relatively high alkalinity reserves in these oils provide excellent protection in neutralising the strong acids resulting from the use of high-sulphur fuels that reach the crankcase and promote oil degradation and ring, cylinder and bearing corrosion.

Performance & benefits

• Mobilgard M30 Series oils have high-performance thermal and oxidation stability.
• They have excellent TBN retention and resistance to viscosity increases over long operating periods.
• They also promote a high level of engine cleanliness with protection against wear.
• Compared to other medium-speed engine oils, they have excellent lube/fuel compatibility and separate easily from water.
• Excellent thermal and oxidation stability: reduced deposits in the piston undercrown and ring-belt areas.
• Improved anti-wear properties: extends the life of critical wear surfaces.
• Advanced detergency/dispersancy: clean camshaft and crankcase spaces.
• Outstanding rust and corrosion properties: protects wear surfaces from water and acidic corrosion.
• High residual-fuel compatibility: reduced sludge formation, longer oil life, cleaner engines.
• Low-volatility base stocks: reduced lubricant consumption.
• Excellent TBN reserve and retention: combats fuel/combustion-related corrosion and deposits.
