    Every 250 Hours: Engine Oil and Filter(s)

    Uploaded by

    ali
    This document provides operation and maintenance instructions for Caterpillar 3408C and 3412C industrial and EPG diesel engines. It recommends obtaining an oil sample every 250 hours using the engine's sampling valve or a sampling gun to monitor oil condition through analysis. The oil change interval depends on factors like the engine's application and maintenance, but should maintain the oil in an acceptable condition to continually protect the engine. Oil analysis best indicates when to change oil. Consultation with a Caterpillar dealer can help establish an oil analysis program.

    Engine Oil and Filter(s)

    Obtain Oil Analysis

    To compliment a good preventative maintenance program, Caterpillar recommends using S*O*S


    analysis at regular intervals to monitor the condition of the engine oil maintenance requirements of
    your engine.

    Obtain Sample

    Each oil sample should be taken when the oil is warm and well mixed to ensure that the sample is
    representative of the oil in the crankcase. There are two methods recommended to obtain oil samples
    from the engine crankcase.

    Oil Sampling Valve

    * Use the sampling valve.


    * Use a sampling gun inserted into the sump.

    NOTE: Refer to How To Take a Good Oil Sample, PEHP6001 for a step-by-step explanation if using
    this method of sampling crankcase oil.

    Caterpillar recommends using one of the above methods. If either of these methods are not possible,
    then use a drain stream method when changing oil.

    NOTE: When using the drain stream to obtain the oil sample, do not sample from the beginning or
    end of the drain stream. The oil at the beginning or end of the drain stream is not mixed well enough
    to be representative of the oil in the crankcase.

    Oil Change Intervals

    Many conditions exist that can affect the selection of an optimum oil change period. The fundamental
    requirement in this decision must be to maintain the lube oil in an acceptable condition that provides
    continual engine protection. The quantity and amount of oil available is balanced against the oil's
    ability to absorb combustion by-products.

    Due to manufacturing tolerances, engine application and maintenance variations, all engines do not
    consume fuel and oil at the same rate. The amount of fuel consumed is in direct relation to the
    maximum oil change interval selected.

    All oils do not perform equally. Lower quality lube oil requires reduced oil change intervals. Oil
    analysis provides the best indication of when to change oil.

    Consult you Caterpillar dealer for complete information and assistance in establishing an S*O*S oil
    analysis program for your engine.
