SAE 5W-30 DPF PLUS C3 (THETIS series)

Synthetic Engine Oil for Cars with and without Exhaust After-Treatment System

High-performance engine oil that with "low SAPS" technology, characterised by his absolute shear stability. This oil belongs to the ACEA C3 category, which ensures even better TDI-piston cleanliness.

The introduction of the EURO 4 and subsequent editions of exhaust gas standards for passenger car engines, has led to the development of new engines and emission control systems, which also necessitated a new generation of engine oils. In order to fulfil these exhaust gas standards, the engines are equipped with diesel particulate filters (DPF).

These emission control systems have to reliably fulfil their function over a very long period of use and must not be negatively affected or rendered ineffective by components of the engine oil.

In order to fulfil these requirements, new engine oils have been developed which have a lower Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus and Sulphur content (low SAPS).

The low-ash technology keeps the engine and the DPF clean and ensures a significant reduction of particulate emissions.

Properties and features

• Modern formulation of the latest ACEA C3 category, specially developed for exhaust after-treatment systems (DPF, Diesel Particulate Filter or NOx storage catalytic converter).

• Improved TDI piston cleanliness.

• Special viscosity index improvers provide this engine oil with a total shear stability.

• The low-ash technology keeps the engine and the DPF clean and ensures a significant reduction of particulate emissions.

• Significant reduction of particulate emissions thanks to the lower content of Sulphated Ash, Phosphorus and Sulphur (low SAPS).

• This oil keeps the engine and emission control system clean and enables a significantly longer use of the DPF.

• Best possible wear protection.

• Further improved cold start performance and fuel saving potential.

Use

This synthetic engine oil with the latest "low SAPS" technology, exceeds the requirements of the ACEA C3 and the newest engines of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles.

This oil is suited for gasoline engines, with multi-valve technology and turbo, as well as for diesel engines with or without particulate filters (DPF), including those with direct injection, common rail, turbochargers.

This oil is specified by some of the most important car manufacturers, in accordance with the below listed specifications.

According to ACEA C3 and ACEA A3/B4-07, this product can also be used in gasoline and diesel engines of other than the below listed manufacturers as well as in engines of previous generations.

It enables also extended oil drain intervals (according to the singular manufacturer's instructions).
