TotalEnergies RUBIA OPTIMA 3100 10W-40
The drastic tightening of API and ACEA standards due in part to environmental restrictions, as well as significant (also environmental) technical innovations in heavy-duty vehicles, have significantly raised the bar of requirements for truck oils. TotalEnergies has therefore decided to replace its entire range of products in this sector. The use of innovative technologies makes it possible not only to meet the new requirements, but also to better protect modern engines. It also has the effect of reducing combustion and emissions of harmful substances in exhaust gases.The main challenge for engineers was the new API specifications: CK-4 and ACEA: E8 and E11, which significantly tighten the quality requirements for engine oils. Without radical technological changes at the production stage, they simply cannot be met.API: CK-4 is the latest standard that significantly tightens the quality requirements, compared to the previous CJ-4. The requirement for improved oxidation resistance (by 100% !) and viscosity loss due to oil shear and aeration is a real revolution. API CK-4 also increases the requirements for protection against catalytic converter “poisoning”, DPF blockage, engine wear, piston deposits and an increase in oil viscosity associated with increased soot (requirement for better dispersion). The new specifications significantly increase the oil oxidation requirements in line with API CK-4, but also raise the requirements for anti-wear properties of bushings and rings (new engine test - Mack T12). In addition, the requirements for piston cleanliness, ring baking and sludge in engines when using fuel with increased amounts of bio-components, which are required in Europe, have been tightened (new engine test - Mercedes-Benz). A complete novelty is the mandatory test for oil resistance to aeration (new engine test - Caterpillar).
