Description

DELO 6170 CFO SAE 40 –MEDIUM SPEED, 4-STROKE TRUNK PISTON ENGINE OIL

DELO 6170 CFO SAE 40 -MEDIUM SPEED Premium performance, 17 Base Number, “zinc-free”, LMOA Generation 5 diesel engine oil, utilizing chlorine-free additive technology, for use in railroad-type diesel engines, particularly modern higher output, lower oil consumption designs. Compared with Generation 4 oils, it has significantly enhanced alkaline reserve and oxidation resistance.

  • Medium speed, two and four-cycle railroad-type diesel engines.
  • Including the most recent high-output, low oil consumption designs, whether in railroad, stationary or marine service
  • Certain medium speed marine-type engines without active purification systems
  • Electro-Motive Diesel (EMD) 567, 645 and 710 (two-cycle) and 265H (four-cycle) railroad diesel engines in railroad, marine, and stationary powerplant  service
  • Fairbanks Morse (FM)/Alco 251 railroad diesel engines in railroad, marine, and stationary powerplant  service
  • General Electric (GE) 7FDL, 7HDL, and GEVO railroad diesel engines in railroad, marine, and stationary powerplant service
  • Chevron Diesel Engine Oils Delo 6170 CFO is recommended:
    • for use in all railroad-type diesel engines for locomotive, marine equipment, stationary electric generating plants, offshore drilling equipment, and many other applications.
    • where large medium-speed EMD or GE diesel engines are used for primary power.
  • Chevron Diesel Engine Oils Delo 6170 CFO are:
    • completely compatible with earlier Delo railroad oils.
    • miscible with competitive railroad type oils and additive systems consistent with engine manufacturers’ recommended practices.
  • Chevron Diesel Engine Oils Delo 6170 CFO provides excellent performance in older locomotive types such as Sulzer, Baldwin, and ALCO. Chevron Diesel Engine Oil Delo 6170 CFO SAE 40 is recommended
    • for use in Caterpillar and other diesel engines operating where sulfated ash levels above 1% are acceptable.
    • where DDC engines are used for auxiliary power.

Detroit Diesel Corporation approves the use of Generation 4 and 5 zinc-free railroad engine oils in these applications.

  • Reduces maintenance costs

High alkaline reserve ensures that corrosive acids formed by the combustion of fuel sulfur are effectively neutralized, thereby minimizing corrosive wear without causing valve distress due to “guttering”.  The special “zinc-free”, ashless anti-wear additive system protects components from abrasive and adhesive wear, and guards against attack of silver-plated bearings.

  • Maintains high power output

Superior thermal and oxidation stability assist the detergent/dispersant additive system in providing excellent control of high-temperature deposits in areas such as the undercrown of the piston and piston ring belt area, enabling piston rings to function efficiently.

  • Prolongs oil change-out periods

Base Number (BN) level and superior alkalinity retention characteristics maintain sufficiently high BN under all service conditions to ensure corrosive acids formed by the combustion of fuel sulfur are effectively neutralized.

  • Prolongs service intervals

Improved oxidation stability and increased alkalinity reserve when compared with LMOA Generation 4 oils, allows the retention of standard service intervals with today’s high specific output and lower specific oil consumption engines.

  • LMOA Generation 5

Not suitable for use in marine-type engines equipped with active purification systems.

Service Considerations :

Owing to the higher level of dispersancy of Delo 6170 CFO, it is not suitable for use in engines that are equipped with active purification systems. In these, marine trunk piston engine oils (TPEOs) such as Taro 20 DP should be used. Such systems continuously remove combustion contaminants from the oil, by use of centrifugal type separators and automatic backflushing type filtration systems. As a consequence, TPEOs are formulated to hold contaminants in suspension while in the engine and reserve tank but release them in the purification system. At the
same time, they must resist the loss of detergent/dispersant additives with the contaminants whilst undergoing purification. Because of this, they are formulated differently from automotive and railroad diesel engine oils which are designed for systems without active purification. Consequently, one type should never be substituted for the other.

The chlorine-free formulation of Delo 6170 CFO offers easier logistics for the collection and disposal of used oil where the inclusion of chlorine-containing products is limited by regulation.
