Manufacturer's description

Shell Rimula R3 adapts to drivers' needs to provide additional protection. It features an active detergent system designed to keep pistons and other engine parts clean, provides protection against wear and thereby extends engine life, and also protects against deposits to maintain engine efficiency.

Applications

  • Proven diesel engine performanceShell Rimula R3 monograde oils have been designed to maximise engine performance across a wide range of applications, in stationary vehicles or in older on-highway diesel engines.
  • Construction industry applicationsEngine oil technology is sometimes recommended for hydraulic and transmission applications. Shell Rimula R3 monograde oils deliver superior performance and ensure the reliability of these applications.
  • Stationary equipmentThe use of Shell Rimula R3 monograde oils is appropriate for stationary equipment, such as pumps in continuous operation in a stable environment.

Performance & benefits

  • Equipment manufacturer approvalsShell Rimula R3 monograde oils are suitable for use in a wide range of engine applications from the major OEMs.
  • The oils' superior thermal stability and oxidation resistance ensure a high standard of piston cleanliness. Reduced wear and extended component life
  • Overall engine cleanliness helps reduce wear, extends component life, maintains power output, improves operational stability and reduces maintenance costs.
  • High standards of piston cleanliness: The oils' superior thermal stability and oxidation resistance ensure a high standard of piston cleanliness
  • Reduced wear and extended component life: Overall engine cleanliness helps reduce wear, extends component life, maintains power output, improves operational stability and reduces maintenance costs
  • Shell Rimula R3 must not be used in Detroit Diesel two-stroke engines. An SAE 40 oil to API CF-II specification with a sulphated ash content below 1% should be used

Standards & approvals

  • 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
