PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000 100% Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil
(HDD) delivers extraordinary lubrication in both diesel and gasoline
engines found in commercial, fleet and personal vehicles. By combining
the industry’s premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium
additives, AMSOIL Series 3000 exceeds the higher performance demands of
modern engines. It withstands the stress of higher heat, higher acid
levels and excessive soot-loading found in EGR-equipped engines. AMSOIL
Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil consistently
outperforms conventional and synthetic diesel oils for long-lasting
performance and protection.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic lubrication,
produced the world’s first API qualified synthetic motor oil in 1972.
Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL The First in Synthetics® to do
the best job protecting your engine.
Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil can extend
drain intervals far beyond those recommended for conventional oils. Its
unique synthetic formulation and long-drain additive system deliver
maximum engine protection, cleanliness and performance over extended
drain intervals, reducing vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal
costs.
Maximizes Fuel Economy
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is energy efficient for
reduced fuel costs. Its low viscosity minimizes “drag” associated with
high-viscosity oils, allowing the engine to operate more freely,
maximizing power and fuel economy.
Maximum Protection Against Engine Wear
Even under high temperatures and pressures, AMSOIL Series 3000 Diesel
Oil’s superior film strength and anti-wear additives help prevent
metal-to-metal contact. AMSOIL Series 3000 reduces ring wear, cylinder
bore polishing, oil consumption and valve train wear for improved engine
life and lower maintenance costs.
Controls Soot Thickening and Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is heavily fortified with
detergent/dispersant additives and is naturally resistant to soot. It is
designed to keep soot particles suspended independently and prevent them
from attaching together to form larger, wear-causing particles.
Viscosity increase is minimized and soot-related wear is controlled.
Reduces Oil Consumption and Emissions
AMSOIL Series 3000 loses only 7.6% of its mass to high-temperature
volatility (evaporation) in the NOACK test, outperforming all
conventional oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the combustion
chamber, oil consumption and emissions are reduced. Additionally, lower
volatility helps AMSOIL 5W-30 Diesel Oil retain its viscosity after
high-temperature service for continued dependable protection and
excellent fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil resists thermal
(heat) breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation better than
conventional oils. And unlike conventional petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD
contains no wax. It stays fluid down to -50°C (-58°F) for improved
cold-temperature oil flow, reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is recommended for diesel
engines, gasoline engines and other applications that require any of the
following worldwide specifications:
• API CI-4+, CF, SL • ACEA A3/B3, E2 • Global DHD-1 •
JASO DH-1 • Mack EO-M+, EO-N Premium Plus ’03 • DDC Power Guard 93K214 •
Caterpillar ECF-1-a, ECF-2 • Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077,
20078 • Volvo VDS-2, VDS-3 • MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1 • MAN 271/3275 • MTU
Type 2
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is compatible
with conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils
with other oils, however, will shorten the oil life expectancy and
reduce the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain
intervals where oils have been mixed.
Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended
for use with AMSOIL motor oils.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil (HDD) is recommended for
extended drain intervals in engines that are unmodified and in good
operating condition.
Diesel Engine Service
-
Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed
50,000 miles/600 hours or one year, whichever comes first. Drain
intervals may be extended further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
-
Normal Service – Up to 25,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
-
Severe Service – Up to 15,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
*Operating conditions and drain intervals for severe and normal service
are defined by the OEM. Refer to your owner’s manual.
Note: Extended drain intervals are not recommended when
using biofuels containing >10% ethanol or 5% biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM
drain intervals or extend drain intervals with oil analysis.
AMSOIL Ea and Donaldson Endurance full flow oil filters are designed for
extended drain intervals. They stop smaller particles, have less
restriction and last longer than regular filters. For best performance,
use AMSOIL Ea or Donaldson Endurance oil filters.
AMSOIL
Ea By-Pass Oil Filters are specialized
for the removal of small, wear-causing dirt particles, thereby extending
engine life. AMSOIL encourages using an AMSOIL Ea By-Pass Filtration
System for maximum engine and oil life.
Oil Analyzers Inc. (715-395-0222) is a division of AMSOIL that
provides cost-effective, quality oil analysis services.
