Product Description
Mobil Pegasus 610 is a high performance natural gas engine oil primarily
intended for the lubrication of modern medium and high speed four-cycle
engines operating on fuel that contains corrosive materials such as hydrogen
sulphide or halogens (compounds containing chlorine, fluorine, etc.). These
engines are generally of the lean-burn design where increased manifold
pressures prevent sufficient lubricant from reaching the valve guide areas
resulting in low oil consumption which can lead to accelerated valve guide and
valve recession. This effect also increases the potential for wear and acid
attack of upper cylinder components from the acidic materials generated during
combustion. The Mobil Pegasus 610 is a 1.0% ash, high TBN gas engine oil with
exceptional reserve alkalinity designed to offset the negative effects of
these corrosive materials on engine components. The excellent corrosion
protection properties prevent corrosive wear in cylinders, valve areas and
bearings which can result in longer engine life and lower maintenance costs.
Mobil Pegasus 610 provides excellent anti-wear and anti-scuff performance
assuring minimal piston scuffing, scoring and cylinder and ring wear. This oil
can also be used for the lubrication of the reciprocating compressors in
landfill and biomas gas applications.
Mobil Pegasus 610 is
formulated from high quality mineral base oils combined with an advanced
technology 1.0% ash additive system designed to provide excellent protection
of engine and compressor components. This product exhibits a high level of
chemical stability and resistance to oxidation and nitration. Mobil Pegasus
610 offers outstanding resistance to valve train wear and protection against
deposit and sludge formation. These performance advantages combined with the
very effective detergency and dispersancy characteristics control the
formation of ash and carbon deposits that could result in poor engine
performance and detonation.
Features and Benefits
Mobil Pegasus 610 Gas Engine Oil provides an additional margin of protection
in those applications using contaminated fuel. Its excellent detergent /
dispersant technology also results in cleaner engines, lower wear rates and
improved engine performance. The use of this product can result in reduced
maintenance costs and improved production capacity. Its excellent chemical and
oxidation stability can result in longer drain periods and reduced filter
costs. The high reserve alkalinity of this product allows its use in engines
operating on fuels with moderate amounts of corrosive materials in the fuel
gas.

Applications
Note : Engines operating on fuel gas with elevated levels of sulphur or
chlorine compounds should also have coolant (jacket water) and oil
temperatures raised.

- Engines operating on fuel containing other corrosive components such as TOHCl (Total Organic Halides as Chloride)
- Spark ignited four-stroke cycle gas engines with very low oil consumption
- Reciprocating compressors operating on natural gas that contains sulphur or halogens
- High output or naturally aspirated engines operating at or in excess of rated capacity under high temperatures
