- API CF
Shell Sirius X is approved by:
- MTU (Type II high performance category)
- CWEC (Cummins Wärtsilä Engine Company)
- MWM Deutz (high output, high speed, e.g. TBD 620)
and meets the requirements of:
- Caterpillar 3600 Series
Applications
- High-speed diesel engines operating on distillate fuels
- N.B. Not suitable for N. American automotive type engines, for which API CF-4 type oils are required.
Shell Sirius X is a top quality lubricant, of the Super High
Performance Diesel Engine Oil (SHPDO) class. It is designed for the highest output, high-speed diesel engines, burning distillate fuel and is formulated to give better engine protection and longer drain intervals than normal diesel engine oils.
Shell Sirius X is especially suitable for the high power/weight units used in fast vessels and compact generator sets.
