Taro Ultra 140A

Engine Protection

• Effective acid neutralization ensures protection against excessive cylinder liner and piston ring wear resulting from the use of high sulphur heavy fuel oils, thus extending cylinder liner and piston ring life.

Engine Cleanliness

• Prevents ring sticking and minimizes deposit formation on the pistons and throughout the combustion chamber exhaust areas.

Storage Stability

• Stable at ambient temperature and during long-term storage

Compatibility

• Compatible with diesel cylinder lubricants generally known to the international marine trade

Operating cost

• If oil feedrate is above minimum recommended by OEM, there is potential to move to a higher base number formulation to provide the same level of alkalinity and corrosion protection but at lower feedrates, therefore reducing operating cost.
  

Taro Ultra 140A is recommended for lubricating the cylinders of the latest generation large two-stroke / slow-speed crosshead diesel engines equipped with exhaust abatement technologies operating with heavy fuel oil, under all loads and very corrosive operating conditions. The base number of Taro Ultra 140A makes this product ideal for use in engine types and under operating conditions which are sensitive to cold corrosion in the cylinder.

Taro Ultra 140A should be used in accordance with OEM guidelines and recommendations. Taro Ultra 140A can also be used in combination with Taro Ultra 20 in MAN Energy Solutions diesel engines equipped with Automated Cylinder Oil Mixing (ACOM).
