kscarbel2 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Prime Mover Magazine / April 16, 2015Penske Power Systems has extended the oil drain conditions for the Detroit engine platform.The new program, which extends oil drain out to 60,000 km (37,282 miles) without sampling, is available to DD15 customers who use approved oils, the company said.“The sample-free oil drain program … has been developed for operators of single trailer and B-double line haul operations – with a fuel burn of 33,000 litres or less or 750 hours of operation – who use approved oils only.“Operators of other applications – including short haul, wharf haul, tipper and dog, and more who use non-approved oils – will need to run individual oil sampling programs to evaluate the possibilities of extending oil drain periods.”Kevin Dennis, Director On-Highway Business, Penske Power Systems, commented, “These improvements all equate to a lower cost of ownership and increasing road time. What’s more, the change allows for seamless alignment with truck servicing periods.”Approved oils are Detroit Platinum Plus 1300 (API CJ-4 15W-40), Castrol Vecton (API CJ4 15W-40) and Mobil Delvac MX ESP (API CJ4 15W-40).
