Taro® DP Series lubricants are high-performance, medium- to high-BN, diesel engine oils for medium and highspeed trunk piston diesel engines.

Customer Benefits

Wear Protection
Optimum BN levels control cylinder liner wear effectively and help protect bearings from corrosion. High performance, anti-wear additives provide excellent protection against adhesive wear for cams, camshaft and bearings. Taro® DP Series lubricants also provide a high degree of water tolerance and antifoam properties.

Detergent/Dispersant Properties
The specially formulated detergent and dispersant additive system provide outstanding piston cleanliness as well as control of fuel contaminants. This contributes to the reduction of both “hot” (piston lands and grooves, piston undercrown, purifier preheaters) and “cold” (crankcase, cambox, rocker area, fuel pumps, purifier bowl) deposits.

Oxidation Stability
Oxidation inhibitors help to protect the oil against high thermal stresses and the engine parts from corrosion and reduce under-crown deposits while promoting lubricant life.

Rust Prevention
Helps prevent corrosion of engine parts when the engine is not in operation.

Product features

  • Taro® 20 DP can also be used in combination with marine diesel or gas oil. Taro® DP Series lubricants are blended from high-quality base oils and additives that provide an extra margin of protection against ring sticking, piston deposits and wear under severe operating conditions.
  • Taro® DP Series lubricants have very good viscosity control when used in severe high- temperature service, and their excellent BN retention characteristics help prevent corrosive wear over long periods of operation.
  • Taro® DP Series lubricants provide a high degree of water tolerance and have good water separation and base retention properties.
Applications

Taro® DP Series lubricants are recommended by Chevron for all types of trunk piston diesel engines burning 1) marine diesel oil or low sulphur heavy fuels with a sulphur content up to 2% [Taro® 20 DP]; or 2) residual fuels with a maximum sulphur level of 4% [Taro® 30 DP].
