Elite Max 10W30 CK4
Balmerol Elite Max 10W-30, API CK 4 is a premium quality, high performance diesel engine oil recommended for heavy duty on and off-highway vehicles operating under severe conditions. It is especially formulated with new generation additive technology to meet the needs of ultramodern high output low emission diesel engines designed as per the Euro VI & BS VI emission requirements for vehicles fitted with exhaust after treatment devices like SCR, DPF. It exhibits improved oxidation and shear stability and better aeration control. soot handling properties. It provides enhanced protection against engine wear, piston deposits, low and high temperature degradation. Especially suitable for engines running on Ultra Low Sulphur fuels.
Available Size:
500ml 1L 0.35l
Features & Benefits:
- Oxidation Protection: Improved oxidation performance compared to CJ4 technology.
- Wear Protection: Outstanding cylinder, bearing and ring wear. Minimized cross head, injector screw weight loss.
- Oil consumption control: Demonstrated excellent oil consumption control in engine tests. Longer Oil Drain interval (ODI).
- Deposit Protection: Excellent piston cleanliness and engine deposit reduction.
- Better TBN retention: Demonstrates over 80% increase in TBN / TAN crossover time in Volvo T 13 engine test compared to CJ4 technology.
Applications / Recommendations:
- Balmerol Elite Max 10W-30, API CK4 is recommended for use in high speed four stroke modern high output, low emission engines including those with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and engine after treatment devices like SCR & DPF. Recommended for use in all modern diesel engines which are fitted with latest generation after treatment devices to meet Euro VI and BS VI emission norms. Also recommended for off- highway equipment, tractors and other farm equipment engines requiring to meet Euro IV and BS IV emission norms.
