Petronas Arbor Alfaprime Synth 10W-40
Low-SAPS engine oil for Tier 4 farm and construction machinery with DPF, API CJ-4
SAE 10W-40
PETRONAS Arbor Alfaprime Synth 10W-40 is a premium engine oil dedicated to agricultural and construction machinery, protecting against oxidation, decomposition and wear while keeping optimal piston cleanliness and viscosity stability for a longer life-cycle. It is a low SAPS oil suitable for Tier IV and Stage V heavy-duty diesel applications, including modern low-emission engines with DPF, SCR, DOC and EGR after-treatment, and also older turbocharged and naturally aspirated engines on high or ultra-low sulphur diesel and biodiesel. Compliant with the latest CK-4 requirements, it offers optimised performance for extended drain intervals and is fully backward compatible with previous E6-16, E7-16 and E9-16 classifications, suiting AGCO, Bobcat, Caterpillar, Doosan, Hitachi, Hyundai, John Deere, Liebherr, Renault Tractors, Same Deutz Fahr, Sumitomo and Volvo CE machinery. It meets API CK-4, CJ-4, ACEA E7, E8, E11, CAT ECF-3/ECF-2/ECF-1a and JASO DH-2 specifications, with Deutz DQC IV-18 LA, DTFR 15C120, MTU Oil Category 3.1 and Renault RLD-3 approvals, plus Volvo VDS-4.5, Cummins CES 20086/20081, Detroit Diesel DFS93K222/218, MAN M3775, MB 228.51/228.52/228.31 and Volvo VDS-4 performance levels.
Volvo's specification matching the API CK-4 level, with increased oxidation stability and aeration resistance over VDS-4.

ACEA E11 — heavy-duty diesel, low SAPS, extended drain
An ACEA sequence for Euro VI and later heavy-duty diesel engines fitted with DPF and SCR. It requires low-SAPS additive chemistry (reduced sulphur, ash and phosphorus) and the oxidation resistance needed for extended drain intervals.
Caterpillar ECF-3, ECF-2 and ECF-1a
Caterpillar's three engine crankcase fluid categories quoted together: an oil covering all of them can serve both newer DPF-equipped CAT engines and older ones.
JASO DH-2 — diesel engine oil
The Japanese standard for heavy-duty diesel engine oils in DPF-equipped engines, with sulphated ash capped so the filter does not clog.
Deutz DQC IV-18 LA (low ash)
The 2018 issue of Deutz class IV with low ash — Deutz's top level for engines with full exhaust aftertreatment.
Daimler Truck DTFR 15C120 (formerly MB 228.52) — low-SAPS engine oil, extended drain
A low-SAPS level above 228.51, with tighter oxidation requirements, for longer drain intervals. Daimler Truck renumbered the MB-Approval sheets into the DTFR series; MB 228.52 and DTFR 15C120 are the same requirement.Source
MTU Oil Category 3.1 (low SAPS)
MTU's highest category in its low-SAPS form: a multigrade oil with under 1 % ash, approved only where the fuel carries less than 50 mg/kg sulphur. For engines with exhaust aftertreatment.
Renault Trucks RLD-3 — low-SAPS truck oil
Renault Trucks' specification for low-ash oils in Euro V and Euro VI engines with a particulate filter and SCR.
MAN M 3775 — low-SAPS, low-viscosity oil
MAN's specification for low-SAPS, low-viscosity oils delivering fuel economy on Euro VI engines.
CNH MAT 3521 — agricultural equipment fluid
A CNH (Case New Holland) works standard for the fluids in its own tractors and machines, used to qualify oils through the dealer network.
Deutz's highest oil quality class, 2010 issue, in its low-ash form: a fully synthetic oil for extended drain intervals.
Mercedes-Benz approval 228.31
A Mercedes-Benz operating-fluid approval (BeVo sheet).
Volvo's specification for low-SAPS oils in Euro VI engines with a particulate filter and SCR, matching the API CJ-4 level.
