Description
Designed for high-performance, heavy-duty diesel engines, Castrol Vecton 15W-40 CK-4/E9 with System Pro Technology is an advanced mineral oil that ensures extended oil life. It is suitable for use in high-speed 4-stroke diesel engines operating with diverse fuel qualities and is compatible with engines equipped with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems.
Advantages:
- Enhanced Engine Protection: The Castrol Vecton 15w/40 20 LTR offers advanced engine protection by reducing wear, friction, and deposit formation. It forms a strong lubricating film on engine surfaces, minimizing metal-to-metal contact and extending the life of critical components.
- Excellent Oxidation Stability: This engine oil exhibits exceptional oxidation stability, which allows it to resist oil breakdown and maintain its performance over extended periods. It effectively prevents the formation of sludge and varnish, keeping the engine clean and reducing the risk of engine damage.
- Extended Drain Intervals: The advanced formulation of Castrol Vecton 15w/40 20 LTR enables extended drain intervals, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Its robust additive package ensures long-lasting performance and protection, even under severe operating conditions.
- Fuel Efficiency: The oil’s friction-modifying additives contribute to enhanced fuel efficiency by reducing internal engine friction. This results in improved engine responsiveness and potentially lower fuel consumption, providing cost savings over the long term.
- Compatibility with Aftertreatment Systems: Castrol Vecton 15w/40 20 LTR is compatible with modern after-treatment systems, such as diesel particulate filters (DPFs) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. It helps maintain the performance and longevity of these systems by minimizing ash accumulation and ensuring efficient emission control.
Functionalities:
- Lubrication: The primary function of Castrol Vecton 15w/40 20 LTR is to lubricate the engine components, reducing friction and wear. It provides a protective layer between moving parts, ensuring smooth operation and minimizing metal-to-metal contact.
- Wear Protection: The oil’s advanced additive technology forms a durable protective film on engine surfaces, reducing wear and extending the life of critical engine components, such as pistons, rings, and bearings.
- Deposit Control: Castrol Vecton 15w/40 20 LTR effectively controls the formation of deposits, including sludge, varnish, and carbon. It keeps the engine clean and ensures optimal performance by preventing the build-up of harmful contaminants.
- Thermal Stability: The engine oil maintains its viscosity and lubricating properties even under high-temperature operating conditions. It effectively dissipates heat generated by the engine, preventing overheating and maintaining consistent performance.
- Corrosion and Rust Prevention: The oil includes corrosion inhibitors that protect the engine components from rust and corrosion. This helps prolong the life of the engine and ensures reliable operation, particularly in harsh environments.
Cold-Start Performance: The 15w/40 viscosity rating of the oil allows for smooth flow and quick circulation during cold starts. It provides immediate protection to critical engine parts, reducing wear and minimizing engine wear during start-up.
