CASTROL CYLTECH 40SX
Description:
Cyltech 40SX is a highly detergent, premium marine diesel engine cylinder lubricant for two-stroke crosshead engines running on low-sulphur fuels.
The increasing use of low sulphur fuels, especially for the ‘Emission Control Areas’ designated by IMO, dictates an increasing demand for a truly high performance low BN (Base Number) cylinder lubricant.
Applications:
Cyltech 40SX is a 40 BN cylinder lubricant for the following applications:
• Prolonged operation on low-sulphur fuel (distillate or heavy fuel < 1.5% S).
• In-service running-in (distillate or heavy fuel).
• Sea trials and Test bed breaking-in.
In many cases it is suitable for fuels of up to 2-2.5% sulphur; however corrosion sensitive engines should select higher BN oils, especially for prolong operation at sulphur levels of above 2.7%.
Features & Benefits:
Cyltech 40SX also has the following benefits:
• Excellent control of piston ring and cylinder liner wear. Superior detergency performance for engine cleanliness.
• Ensures reduced deposits, especially calcium carbonate.
• Higher safety margin against scuffing under prolonged operation on low-sulphur fuel.
In additional to its well proven Cyltech technology, Cyltech 40SX is significantly boosted with Castrol’s unique detergent chemistry. It also has a lower ash content than a nominal 70BN oil.
