Sulphated ash 0.9 %, base number 9.8 mg KOH/g, 14.1 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 130, pour point -33 °C.
Application
Euro V/VI and older diesel engines, with particulate filters, SCR, CRT, oxidation catalysts, EGR or naturally aspirated, in trucks and construction, mining, quarrying and agricultural machinery; also petrol engines in mixed fleets.
Worth knowing
The two 15W-40 oils in the Mobil Delvac Modern line barely differ in viscosity (14.1 mm²/s at 100 °C here, 14.6 mm²/s in Mobil Delvac Modern 15W-40 Super Defense V4), but they belong to different branches. This one has 0.9 % sulphated ash and, among its approvals, DTFR 15C100, Volvo VDS-4.5 and Mack EOS-4.5; V4 has 1.1 % ash and is approved to DTFR 15B110 and Mack EO-N. Volvo VDS-3 is approved in both, while of the pair only V4 has Cummins CES 20076 and 20077. According to Mobil’s renaming table this oil was formerly called Mobil Delvac MX ESP 15W-40, and the typical figures of the two are the same.
The data sheet limits the Isuzu DEO line to vehicles with a DPD system. Among the fields of use it also names older naturally aspirated diesels, and here the fuel matters: for an engine without exhaust after-treatment on fuel with more than 15 ppm sulphur, Cummins does not recommend CES 20081 and 20086 oils. The article on oil for tractors and construction machinery explains this caution, as well as the Deutz DQC II-18 LA and JASO DH-2 codes.
