| El Mar Low Ash is a premium quality, low-ash, dispersant-detergent gas engine oil designed for use in high-output, 4-stroke cycle natural gas engines operating under heavy loads and extreme temperatures. Engines operating in this type of service typically are found on crude oil and gas transmission pipelines, electrical power generators, gas compressors, irrigation water pumps and well drilling rigs. El Mar Low Ash is formulated with field-proven performance additives to meet the rigorous lubrication demands of modern, fuel-efficient, low-emission gas engines. It provides excellent resistance to oil oxidation and nitration, protects against ring and liner wear, helps minimize engine sludge and piston deposits for outstanding engine cleanliness, and protects against corrosion. It also protects against valve stem deposits and valve recession, resulting in reduced maintenance and extended engine life. The additive package has low phosphorus content to meet the requirements of gas engines equipped with catalysts for exhaust after-treatment. Applications: - Turbocharged, lean-burn and naturally aspirated 4-stroke cycle natural gas engines where the manufacturer specifies a low-ash gas engine oil meeting API CD performance requirements
