Diesel engines from older designs to modern ones with any exhaust after-treatment, on the road, in heavy off-highway work and in refrigeration units, plus high-performance petrol engines in mixed fleets.

Worth knowing

The renaming table on mobil.eu gives this oil a new name: Mobil Delvac Ultra 5W-40 Ultimate Protection V1. The V1 data sheet matches the ESP data sheet in all typical figures, from viscosity at 40 and 100 °C to HTHS, ash and base number, and in the Cummins, DDC and DTFR approvals. It adds Isuzu DEO for vehicles with a particulate filter, API SL and a recommendation for ACEA E9.

Cummins itself attaches a caveat to its CES 20081 and 20086 specifications: it advises against using such oils in engines without exhaust after-treatment if the fuel contains more than 15 ppm of sulphur, and for such engines it recommends CES 20078 (more in the article on Cummins, CAT, Deutz and JASO DH codes for diesel machinery). The ExxonMobil data sheet also gives cold-temperature figures for this oil that are not among the figures on this page: 6,510 mPa·s on the cold-cranking simulator at -30 °C and 16,800 mPa·s on the mini-rotary viscometer at -35 °C.
