ACEA E class
ACEA Sequences
A/B C E Class
A1/B1, A3/B3, A3/B4, A5/B5
C1, C2, C3, C4 E4, E6, E7, E9 Category
E class is for Heavy Duty engine oilsy y gCurrently there are 4 different categories for slightly different applicationsE4 and E7 for ”normal SAPS” oilsE4 and E7 for normal SAPS oilsE6 and E9 for ”low SAPS” oils

CEC tests in ACEA E categories
Lab tests– CEC L-014-93, shear stability (E4 only)– CEC L-036-90, HTHS viscosity– CEC L-040-93, Noack volatility– CEC L-039-96, seal compatibility
CEC L 085 99 hot surface oxidation– CEC L-085-99, hot surface oxidationEngine tests– CEC L-099-08 OM646LA cam wearCEC L 099 08, OM646LA cam wear– CEC L-101-08, OM501LA, piston cleanliness
ACEA E categories also include several gASTM tests

CEC from ACEA HD perspective
Reorganization in 2001 was a very positive d i t t and important move
Many quality improving steps:– ”Golden Lab” approach Golden Lab approach – Lab audits– Test Monitoring System (TMS)– European Registration Center (ERC)– Active support groups
Daimler support for CEC is highly Daimler support for CEC is highly appreciatedWe regret to admit that other ACEA members are less active within CECmembers are less active within CEC

Future outlook - 1
Ongoing test developments g g papplicable to the E class – TDG L-104, effect of biodiesel fuel– TDG L-105, Low temperature operability
Possible new test developments– Fuel economy
– Oil oxidation

Future outlook - 2
How can we increase OEM involvement in CEC?– Membership restricted to contributing
(d f d k dcompanies (direct funding or in-kind contributions)
– Typically only HW supplying OEM’s are Typically only HW supplying OEM s are members
– Unless there is a serious field problem funding for participation is very difficult to raise
Can we find alternative membership i i ?criteria?

Future outlook - 3
Can we improve further? – Stricter installation audits?– Stricter hard ware control?– Stricter control of engine running conditions?Stricter control of engine running conditions?
Do we need an independent body for the above?– Stock and control of HW– Responsible for installation audits (with relevant OEM)
– “Policing” reference data generationPolicing reference data generation

Future outlook - 4
“Globalization” keeps creeping closer – More extensive OEM relations across the world– Global hardware harmonization– Will engine oil specifications follow?Will engine oil specifications follow?

Future outlook - 6
What factors influence a ”globalization” of engine il ifi ti ?oil specifications?– Different processes in EU and US– Acceptance level of CEC tests - Why are CEC tests not
accepted in the US category development process? – Japanese input?
What to do?– Benchmark processes including test development– Improve efforts to ”sell” CEC in North America
Increase transparency of reference data and quality – Increase transparency of reference data and quality monitoring process to enhance understanding of CEC test qualityWhat can CEC do facilitate the globalization?– What can CEC do facilitate the globalization?
