PRODUCT APPLICATIONS

Taro Special HT LF is recommended for the cylinder lubrication of large crosshead diesel engines operating on low sulphur fuels at different power outputs and different thermal loads, including those in continuous operation within ECA zones. Running on low sulphur fuels requires optimized introduction of base into the cylinder. This can be achieved by optimizing the oil feed rate and selecting a diesel cylinder lubricant with a lower base number. Taro Special HT LF meets MAN Diesel & Turbo and Wärtsilä requirements, with NOLs issued.
