Mobilgard 570
Diesel Engine Cylinder Oil
Product Description
Mobilgard 570 by ExxonMobil is a superior quality, extra high performance, marine diesel engine cylinder oil.
This bold new approach in cylinder lubricant technology provides maximum protection from adhesive and
corrosive wear at the higher operating temperatures and pressures of today's modern crosshead engines. The
outstanding performance of Mobilgard 570 has been demonstrated at the highest peak firing pressures and liner
temperatures.
Mobilgard 570 employs additives with substantially greater thermal stability and superior acid-corrosion protection.
It has an optimum viscosity of over 20 cSt. at 100oC and low volatility for best lubricant distribution and film
retention. Through the use of unique formulation technology, the higher viscosity is attained with little or no use
of thermally less stable, deposit-producing bright stock. Unique technology at the 70 TBN alkalinity level in
Mobilgard 570 has demonstrated superior ring and liner protection and cleanliness under sustained operation
with fuel sulphur levels down to 1.5%, but in some cases can be used in lower sulphur applications with the
approval of the engine manufacturer.
Features and Benefits
Mobilgard 570 cylinder oil offers the following features and potential benefits:
Features Advantages and Potential Benefits
Excellent thermal and oxidation stability Reduced deposits and sludge formation Cleaner engine
reduces lay-up time required for overhauls
Exceptional antiwear properties Reduced liner and ring wear Excellent anti-scuffing
control
Outstanding detergency capability Superior piston and liner cleanliness increases
combustion efficiency and extends periods between
piston overhauls
High TBN level and retention Wide fuel sulphur capability Minimises the corrosive
effect of high sulphur fuel combustion
Applications
Mobilgard 570 has been developed for marine crosshead engines designed for increased power and fuel
efficiency. Such engines exhibit higher temperatures and pressures in the cylinder, which reduce the lubricant's
viscosity and increase the loads which it must withstand. Longer piston strokes have greatly increased the
amount of surface to be protected and the amount of time the lubricant must withstand the severe cylinder
temperatures and corrosive sulphur acids. Mobilgard 570 has also demonstrated superior performance in earlier
engine designs.
To ensure achieving the maximum equipment life possible, particular attention should be paid to the manufacturer's
special recommendations regarding the running-in of new rings and liners.
Applications where the sulphur level is below 1.5% require special consideration and should be discussed with
your ExxonMobil representative.
Appropriate feed rates should be verified in all cases by through-the-ports inspection of liners for adequate oil
film.
