Description:

Veritas 800 Marine is a premium crankcase lubricant for slow-speed crosshead diesel engines. Veritas 800 Marine is manufactured from highly refi ned lubricating oil stocks and has very good anticorrosion and antifoam properties. The oil has a moderate level of alkalinity to neutralize acidic combustion products that can enter the crankcase. Special additives give the oil detergent properties which ensure clean crankcases. The combination of detergency and the excellent oxidation stability provides clean piston interiors where oil is used for cooling.

Recommended Uses:

Veritas 800 Marine is recommended for the crankcase lubrication of large, slow-speed marine diesel engines. Due to ingress of higher viscosity cylinder drip oil into the SAE 30 system oil, the viscosity often shows an increase. Using the SAE 20 grade will help to correct such an increase. Veritas 800 Marine meets the Wärtsilä, MAN B&W and Mitsubishi crosshead engine system oil requirements.

Performance Benefits:

1. Wear Protection

Protects bearings and bright metals in the engine lubrication systems against corrosive wear from acids formed by combustion.

2. Detergency

Ensures clean crankcases, piston interiors and lubricating oil lines.

3. Corrosion Protection

Prevents corrosion of engine parts when the engine is not in operation.

4. Rust Protection

Protects all engine parts against rusting.

5. Resistance to Foaming

Prevents the formation of foam and ensures smooth operation of pumps with a continuous feed of oil to all parts that need lubricating.

6. Easy Purification

Can be cleaned with normal shipboard purifi ers. Water washing of Veritas 800 Marine is neither necessary nor recommended.
