Shell Argina S3 40
Trunk Piston Diesel Engine Oil
Product Description
Shell Argina S3 40 is a multifunctional crankcase lubricant for highly rated medium-speed diesel engines operating on residual, blended or distillate fuels. Shell Argina S3 40 has a BN of 30 and is designed for conditions of moderate oil stress.
Benefits
- Extended oil life – Shell Argina S3 40 is a BN 30 oil which has been optimized to resist oxidation and maintain BN in order to reduce the amount of oil sweetening that is required. Please contact your Shell technical representative who will be able to offer additional support in product selection and guidance on extending oil life and minimizing sweetening.
- Engine protection – Shell Argina S3 40 has an optimized level of detergency leading to exceptionally clean crankcase, valve deck and pistons. The formulation has been further optimized to reduce deposits in critical areas, e.g., piston undercrown.
- System efficiency – Shell Argina S3 40 has a high detergency/low dispersancy formulation in order to effectively release contaminants and water in centrifugal separators. Shell Argina S3 40 can be used to top up engines already running on any other member of the Argina family, giving immediate control of BN without the need for an oil change.
