GP MARGEN MDO TPEO SERIES

GP MARGEN MDO Trunk piston engine oil for medium speed diesel engines operating on distillate fuel,
Very Low Sulphur Fuel (VLSFO)
Product Description:
GP MARGEN MDO series are trunk piston engine oil designed for use in medium speed diesel engines
operating on distillate fuels and Very Low Sulphur Fuels (VLSFO) having sulphur contents <0.5 %. The
modern additive technology used in this oil provides superior engine cleanliness & protection. This oil is
available in SAE 30 & SAE 40 viscosity grades with a BN (Base Number) of 12 to 20. These oils exhibit a
high degree of water tolerance and meet the performance requirements of API CF.

 Features & Benefits:
• Superior detergency ensures piston and crankcase cleanliness.
• Improved anti-wear property minimises engine wear and reduces maintenance costs.
• Excellent thermo-oxidative stability retards oil degradation and controls its viscosity.
• Reserve BN ensures protection of engine parts against corrosive combustion products.
• Better demulsibility characteristics ensure water separation leading to trouble free operation.
• Special rust & corrosion inhibitors prevent corrosion of engine parts in severe salt water environment.
Applications:
• Recommended for medium speed engines used in marine, power generation and industrial applications
operating on distillate fuel, Very Low Sulphur Fuel (VLSFO) having sulphur contents <0.5% and Ultra
Low Sulphur Fuel (ULSFO) having Sulphur content less than 0.1%. This product is also suitable for older
engines where liner-lacquer is not a potential problem.
• Oils of appropriate BN to be chosen based on the sulphur content of fuel used. Follow manufacturers’
recommendation for selection of suitable BN level/ viscosity grade.
• Also recommended for general lubrication of shipboard equipment where specialised lubricants are not
required or use of API CF quality oils are adequate.
