Greetings Bitogers,
Can someone explain this to me. I've googled this topic but can't find a definitive answer. Maybe someone here can help me out. RT1 advertises the following:
Application
Shell Rotella® T1 oils are suitable for use in many turbos and non-turbocharged light/medium-duty diesel-powered trucks and transport operations, including city operations and long-distance service.
Shell Rotella® T1 can provide dependable lubrication for small-to-medium-agricultural equipment, such as tractors. Also suitable for many low/medium-powered stationary applications such as diesel-powered water pumps, generators, etc.
Shell Rotella® T1 is suitable for use in mobile hydraulic and transmission systems, as well as for stop-start conditions in construction, mining, or quarry operations, protecting against bearing wear and deposit formation. Not recommended for high-speed engines.
Rotella states: Not recommended for high-speed engines.
What does this mean?
What are applications considered 'HIGH-SPEED' engines?
Would a gasoline or natural gas powered generator running at 3,600 RPM be considered 'high-speed'? I ask because I know there are diesel water cooled engines that run at 1,800 RPMs.
Thanks for the responses in advanced.
