SPC MERLION 7000 is a high alkaline cylinder oil for marine diesel engine cylinder lubrication. It is formulated from high quality base stock and additives to provide the necessary performance characteristics for cylinder lubrication of two-stroke marine diesel engines operating on high sulphur residual fuel.
PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
SPC MERLION 7000 the following performance requirements:
• MAN B&W Diesel
• M.A.N.
• Sulzer
BENEFITS
SPC MERLION 7000 provides the following benefits:
• Reduces piston ring and liner wear.
• Prevents deposit formation on pistons and exhaust systems.
• Exhibits high thermal stability.
• Provides high alkaline reserve to neutralise acid formed by combustion to prevent acidic corrosion on cylinders liners.
APPLICATIONS
SPC MERLION 7000 is recommended for cylinder lubrication of large marine two-stroke diesel engine burning very high sulphur residual fuel containing sulphur content of 3.5% mass or more.
