Cat oils have been developed and tested in order to provide the full performance and service life that has been designed and built into Cat engines. Cat oils are currently used to fill diesel engines at the factory. These oils are offered by Caterpillar dealers for continued use when the engine oil is changed. Consult your Caterpillar dealer for more information about these oils.Due to the additional full scale proprietary engine testing required of Cat DEO-ULS and Cat DEO, and due to significant variations in the quality and in the performance of commercially available oils, Caterpillar makes the following recommendations:
Cat DEO-ULS (Diesel Engine Oil - Ultra Low Sulfur) (15W-40)
Cat DEO-ULS (Diesel Engine Oil - Ultra Low Sulfur) (10W-30)
Cat DEO (Diesel Engine Oil) (15W-40)
Cat DEO (Diesel Engine Oil) (10W-30)Cat DEO-ULS multigrade and Cat DEO multigrade oils are formulated with the correct amounts of detergents, dispersants, and alkalinity in order to provide superior performance in Cat diesel engines where recommended for use.Cat DEO-ULS and Cat DEO multigrade oils are the preferred oils for use in ALL Cat diesel engines that are covered by this Special Publication. Commercial alternative diesel engine oils are, as a group, second choice oils. Refer to table 2 in this Special Publication.It is strongly recommended that Cat DEO-ULS be used in model year 2007 and newer (United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) 2007 certified) Cat on-highway, and other aftertreatment-equipped Cat diesel engines, and in Cat EURO IV diesel engines. Cat DEO-ULS limits the sulfated ash in the oil to 1 percent or less, which helps maintain the expected aftertreatment performance. Use of oils other than Cat DEO-ULS in aftertreatment-equipped engines may negatively impact performance of the aftertreatment devices, may cause the need for more frequent Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) cleaning cycles and may contribute to DPF plugging.Typical aftertreatment systems include Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), Diesel Oxidation Catalysts (DOC), Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), and/or Lean NOx Traps (LNT). Other systems may apply.Note: Acceptable commercial oils information is given in the “Commercial Oils” section of the “Engine Oil” article of this Special Publication. Other systems may apply.
