Product Description
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Veritas® 800 Marine Oil is a premium crankcase lubricant for slow-speed crosshead diesel engines.
CUSTOMER BENEFITS
Veritas 800 Marine Oil delivers value through:
• Wear protection — The lubricating oil alkalinity reserve helps protect bearings and bright metals in
the engine lubrication systems against corrosive wear from acids formed by combustion.
• Detergency — Helps clean crankcases, piston interiors and lubricating oil lines.
• Corrosion protection — Helps protect engine parts against rusting.
• Rust protection — Helps prevent corrosion of engine parts when the engine is not in operation.
• Resistance to foaming — A foam inhibitor helps prevent the formation of foam and ensures smooth
operation of lube oil pumps with a continuous feed of oil to all lubricated parts.
• Easy purification — The oil can be cleaned with the normal shipboard purifiers. Water washing of
Veritas 800 Marine is neither necessary nor recommended.
FEATURES
Veritas 800 Marine Oil is manufactured from highly refined lubricating oil stocks and has very good anticorrosion and anti-foam properties. The oil has a moderate level of alkalinity to neutralize acidic combustion products that can enter the crankcase.
Special additives give the oil detergent properties which helps clean crankcases. The combination of detergency and the excellent oxidation stability promotes clean piston interiors where oil is used for cooling.
APPLICATIONS
Veritas 800 Marine Oil SAE 30 is recommended for the crankcase lubrication of large, slow speed marine
diesel engines. Due to ingress of high viscosity cylinder drip oil into the SAE 30 system oil, the viscosity often
shows an increase. Veritas 800 Marine Oil meets the Wärtsilä, MAN B&W, and Mitsubishi crosshead
engine system oil requirements.
