What is the classification of diesel engine oil grades?
1 Answers
Diesel engine oil grades are classified as: CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CF, CF4, CG4, CH4, CI4, CJ4. The further the letter is in the alphabet, the higher the oil quality grade. Currently, CF4 is the main diesel engine oil grade used in China. CF4 is used for high-speed direct injection diesel engines, suitable for diesel with high sulfur content, and particularly suitable for heavy-duty trucks. Diesel engines are divided into: 1. Spark-ignition engines: Gasoline engines inject gasoline into the intake pipe, where it mixes with air to form a combustible mixture before entering the cylinder, which is then ignited by a spark plug to burn and expand, performing work; 2. Compression-ignition engines: Diesel engines directly inject diesel into the engine cylinder through a fuel injection pump and nozzle, where it mixes uniformly with the compressed air in the cylinder and self-ignites under high temperature and pressure, pushing the piston to perform work.
