Product Description

Mobilgard™ ADL Series oils have been designed for high Brake Mean Effective Pressure (BMEP) medium- and high-speed diesel engines operating on distillate fuels.

 

Mobilgard™ ADL 30 and Mobilgard™ ADL 40 oils each have a balanced formulation which combats lacquer formation and deposits in severe service applications. Superior load carrying properties help to minimise piston ring and liner wear, and also make the lubricants suitable for marine gearing applications.

 

Potential benefits of using Mobilgard ADL Series lubricants include helping:

 

• Extend component and critical wear surface life

• Improve overall engine cleanliness

• Reduce oil consumption

• Increase time between engine overhauls

 

Features and Benefits

Mobilgard ADL Series oils have demonstrated superior performance in the latest model diesel engines, including engines of MAN Energy Solutions Augsburg, Caterpillar (3600 and C280 Series), Deutz, and Wärtsilä. In extensive field testing on these engines, Mobilgard ADL Series oils corrected many problems normally associated with severe service engines operating on lower quality fuels. Results included dramatically reduced oil consumption, significantly reduced liner lacquering and extended periods between overhauls. These advanced diesel lubricants possess excellent water separation, rust and corrosion resistance properties.

 

Key features and potential benefits include:

 

Features

Advantages and Potential Benefits

Increased thermal and oxidation stability

Improved engine cleanliness, reduced liner lacquering, reduced top deck sludge, reduced piston ring groove deposits and bore polishing

Superior wear protection

Extends the life of critical wear surfaces

Enhanced detergency/dispersancy capability

Reduced deposits especially in the ring belt area which leads to extended cylinder overhauls and reduced oil consumption

Stay-in-grade shear stability

Reduced oil consumption and improved bearing protection

High TBN levels

Prevents corrosive wear due to higher sulphur fuels

Broad range of engine applications

One severe service engine lubricant for all shipboard applications

 

Applications

Mobilgard ADL Series lubricants are intended for use in high BMEP engines and in severe duty engine applications where the nature of the fuel and service requires a greater level of detergency/dispersancy and liner lacquer control than is offered by most diesel engine lubricants.
