Akros Turbo 15W-40 is an engine oil for high performance tractors and agricultural machinery with turbocharged or naturally aspirated engines of all types and power ratings. Its formulation is intended to support demanding, high-output diesel engines commonly found in modern tractors and agricultural machinery. It is an SAE 15W-40 oil meeting ACEA E7/E5/E3 and API CI-4/CH-4/CG-4/CF-4/CF specifications, with Global DHD-1, CAT ECF-1, Cummins CES 20078/20077/20076/20072/20071, MACK EO-M Plus, MAN M3275, MB 228.3, Renault RLD-2 and Volvo VDS-3 performance levels.
ACEA E7 oil sequence
ACEA's sequence for heavy-duty diesel engines.Source
ACEA E5 oil sequence
ACEA's sequence for heavy-duty diesel engines at extended drain intervals. An earlier sequence, no longer on ACEA's current list; it remains the level specified for the engines of its era.Source
ACEA E3 oil sequence
ACEA's sequence for heavy-duty diesel engines of the Euro I–III era. An earlier sequence, no longer on ACEA's current list; it remains the level specified for the engines of its era.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CI-4 performance level
API's service category for compression-ignition engines. Current category.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CH-4 performance level
API's service category for compression-ignition engines. Current category.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CG-4 performance level
API's service category for heavy-duty diesel engines, written for fuel below 0.5 % sulphur. An earlier category in the API service classification, written for the engines of its era; it still appears on datasheets alongside the current categories.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CF-4 performance level
API's service category for high-speed four-stroke diesel engines, of the generation preceding the emissions standards. An earlier category in the API service classification, written for the engines of its era; it still appears on datasheets alongside the current categories.Source
Diesel engine oil, API CF performance level
API's service category for indirect-injection diesel engines, tolerant of higher-sulphur fuel. An earlier category in the API service classification, written for the engines of its era; it still appears on datasheets alongside the current categories.Source
Global DHD-1 — heavy-duty diesel engine oil
The joint specification drafted by the American, European and Japanese heavy-duty engine makers, so that one level would hold good across all three markets.
Caterpillar ECF-1a
Caterpillar's first Engine Crankcase Fluid category, for CAT diesel engines without advanced aftertreatment. Superseded by ECF-2 and ECF-3.
Cummins' low-SAPS specification for diesel engines with full exhaust aftertreatment, with strict oxidation and aeration requirements.
Cummins' oil specification for EGR diesel engines with a particulate filter, with capped ash to protect the DPF.
Cummins' oil specification for engines with cooled exhaust gas recirculation, with increased soot control requirements.
Cummins' engine oil specification for the diesel engine generation preceding cooled EGR. Superseded by CES 20076 and later.
Cummins' engine oil specification for older diesel engines without exhaust aftertreatment. Superseded by later CES specifications.
Mack EO-M Plus — truck engine oil (superseded)
An improved version of Mack EO-M for EGR-equipped diesel engines, superseded by EO-N and later Mack EO specifications.
MAN M 3275-1 — truck engine oil
MAN's specification for medium-drain truck engine oils at the ACEA E7 level, without a low-ash requirement.
Mercedes-Benz multigrade truck diesel engine oil
Mercedes-Benz's approval for multigrade engine oils in medium- and high-duty diesel engines without exhaust aftertreatment, up to roughly Euro IV. Daimler Truck now issues the same requirement as DTFR 15B110; the two designations cover the same oil.
Renault Trucks RLD-2 — heavy-duty diesel engine oil
Renault Trucks' specification for extended-drain truck engine oils at the ACEA E7 level, without a low-ash requirement.
Volvo's engine oil specification for Euro III–V trucks without a particulate filter, with severe soot control requirements for EGR engines.
