Taro® DP and XL series lubricants are high-performance diesel engine oils for medium-speed trunk piston diesel engines. Taro DP and XL series are blended with highly refined base oils and carefully selected additives. Taro DP and XL series lubricants have very good viscosity control when used in severe high-temperature service, and the BN retention characteristics helps to promote corrosive wear over long periods of operation. The unique detergent and dispersant additive system promotes piston cleanliness as well as control of fuel contaminants. This results in extreme reduction of both “hot” (piston lands and grooves, piston undercrown, purifier preheaters) and “cold” (crankcase, cambox, rocker area, fuel pumps, purifier bowl) deposits. Taro DP and XL series lubricants provide a high degree of water tolerance and have good water separation.
