Gas engine oil NG 40 vs. Eco Gas 4000 XD

Since 2019 the ADDINOL Lube Oil GmbH holds the title “World Market Leader Champion” for biogas engine oils among others. The high export share and the high expenditure in research and development work which have contributed to a world market-leading position in the field of biogas engine oils were decisive reasons for the University of St. Gallen to include ADDINOL in the world market leader index for Germany. Due to the close cooperation with the engine manufacturer MAN, the foundation for the targeted product development of gas engine oils was laid in 1999: Gas engine oils, especially adapted to the operation with special gases. The outstanding success of the ADDINOL gas engine oil MG 40-Extra Plus still sets standards in the market today.

With Eco Gas 4000 XD, the R&D team has succeeded in building on the success story of MG 40-Extra Plus in the natural gas sector as well and achieved optimum control of the operating conditions there. The specially developed additive technology is tailored to the changed conditions of modern gas engines. Thus, higher pressures and temperatures resulting from new engine designs and materials used are ideal conditions for the innovative member of the ADDINOL gas engine oil family to develop its full performance.

There are always advantages, especially compared to the older gas engine oil NG 40: The high-tech additives in combination with high-quality base oils show a better oxidation behaviour. In addition, the larger number of approvals speaks for the performance and versatile use of the Eco Gas 4000 XD. Operators with engines from different manufacturers can thus reduce the number of gas engine oils in use, minimize the risk of confusion when using several products with different approvals and achieve price advantages by using larger units of one product.

Eco Gas 4000 XD is a modern gas engine oil for natural gas and purified biogas applications. Due to the novel additive technology we can guarantee a high market availability and also recommend the change from gas engine oil NG 40 to Eco Gas 4000 XD due to its performance as well as the numerous approvals of internationally known OEMs.
