Classification motor oils ASA allows motorists and professionals to navigate the market and choose suitable products from tens of thousands of proposals. Each high-quality oil is tested for compliance with the International Standard.
ACEA (Association Des Constracteuis Europen Des Automobiles, Association of European Auto-Engineering) is a large organization consisting of the most authoritative car manufacturers in Europe. ASEA standards are international. Oil tolerance (ACEA C3, C2, A2, B3, etc.) indicates the applicability of the composition to the components with those or other characteristics.
About standard
Initially, the world existed the API specification (American Petroleum Institute). However, other operating conditions of cars in Europe, continuous development of technologies, constructive differences from american machines Forced manufacturers to create their tolerances of motor oils. In 1996, the first edition of the European Association standards was published. Soon the standard became international.
In 2004, the classification has changed. If the standardization was previously passed separately under diesel and gasoline engines, since 2004, oil brands were combined. ASEA A1 / B1, ASEA A3 / B4, and so on. The first pair of letter / digit means the level of characteristics of the gasoline motor, the second - diesel. Oils applicable only for diesel engines or only for gasoline DVS (for example, ASEA A3, AEA A5 or ASA B5), are not produced today.
The ASEA specification is divided into 4 groups:
Each group has 5 categories indicated by numbers from 1 to 5. Lubricants from them differ in operational properties, compositions.
Marking and their meanings
The editorial office stands out:
- 4 categories of lubricants for gasoline engine and diesel engines of passenger cars / low-loaded equipment (ASEA A3 / B4, A1 / B1, A3 / B3, A5 / B5);
- 4 categories - for diesel engines of heavy equipment (from C1 to C4);
- Grade 4 - for motors with cleaning systems exhaust gases (E4, E6, E7, E9).
Below you can find the decoding of the ASEA specification for different engines. For convenience, the description is divided into groups for purpose.
Class A / B: for gasoline μs and low-loaded diesel engines
A1 / B1 - compositions for gasoline and diesel enginewhich provides an extended oil replacement interval. Provide low friction at high temperature and shift speed up to 3.5 MPa / s.
A3 / B3 - Lubricants for high-performance gasoline engines, diesel engines passenger cars. Designed for an extended replacement interval, use throughout the year, providing normal conditions the work of the DVS In severe conditions for him.
ASEA A3 / B4 - for engines with direct injection Fuel. Replace A3 / B3 oils. ASEA A3 / B4 class products are energy-saving, reduces fuel consumption.
ASEA A5 / B5 - for high-performance diesel engines, gasoline engines. Provide low friction coefficient at high temperatures, high speed shift. You can apply instead of class ASA A3 / B4 lubricants.
Class C: for internal combustion engine with sump filters and catalytic neutralizers
C1 - Composition for motors with summary filters, three-component catalytic neutralizers. Extends the service life of the exhaust gas purification system. Provides normal working conditions in complex operating modes: at high temperatures, shift speed up to 2.9 MPa / s.
C2 - oil for high-performance diesel engines, gasoline engine. Differs from the previous type of content of various substances.
C3 - Low sulphate lubrication. It has a low viscosity at high temperatures, shifts speed up to 3.5 MPa / s.
C4 - Low sulphate lubricants, low sulfur and phosphorus. Have a minimal viscosity at high temperatures and shift speeds up to 3.5 MPa / s.
Class E: For powerful diesel engines, special equipment
E4 - compositions that ensure the purity of the pistons. It is recommended to apply for diesel engines that meet EURO-1 ecology standards working in heavy conditions (High loads, long continuous operation). Substances are applicable to the technique in which the extended service interval is provided. This specification of motor oil does not imply compatibility with the particulate filters. Compatibility with recycling system must be specified for each specific auto model.
E6 - lubricants compatible with the particulate filters, exhaust recycling systems. Recommended for cars operating on low sulfur fuel.
E7 - compositions for DVS without particulate filters, but with exhaust recycling systems, reduce nitrogen oxide levels.
E9 - products with a similar previous scope of application, but with more stringent requirements for the composition. Applied to the very modern machinesoh.
Other standards: differences and similarities
The classification of ASEA is not the only one in the world. The standards of API and ILSAC are also generally accepted. In the CIS countries, lubricants are brought into line with GOST. But this standard does not use when choosing an oil, trusting international classifications.
API.
The American Oil Institute shares all the foundations on which lubricants are made for 5 groups. They are shown in the table below.
| Group | Description |
|---|---|
| I. | Mineral oils obtained by removing paraffins, sulfur, oil aromatics. The base contains less than 90% of saturated compounds. The viscosity index ranges from 90-100 units, the sulfur content is less than 0.03% of the volume. |
| II. | Products with low aromatics and paraffins. Different with increased oxidative stability - retain their properties even at high temperatures. The viscosity index ranges from 100-120 units., Sulfur content is less than 0.03% of the volume. Contains more than 90% of saturated compounds |
| III | Base with high viscosity index. Created with help modern technology - catalytic hydrocracking. The viscosity index is more than 120 units, the sulfur content is less than 0.03% of the volume. Contains more than 90% of saturated compounds. Provides creating more durable and resistant to film temperatures than previous types products. |
| IV. | The synthetic bases created by mixing polyalphaolefins (PJSC) with polyethylene glycols (PAG). They differ in oxidative stability, a wide range of use temperatures, high viscosity. |
| V. | Naphthenovy, Esters, aromatic, vegetable and other oils that have not included in previous groups. |
S - Quality categories for gasoline engines; depending on the basis and package of additives, conclusions are made regarding the applicability of the finished composition to the machines of certain annual releases. ASEA Classification divides all lubricants into 4 categories, API - by 2:
- S - Quality categories for gasoline engines;
- C - standards for diesel engines.
Each standard contains 2 letters. The first indicates a group (s or c), the second is the year of production of the car to which the oil is applicable.
API is an American standard, but it is recognized worldwide. Therefore, the class on this standard can give European oil.
Ilsac
ILSAC (International Committee on Standardization and Approbation of Motor Oils -INTERNATIONAL LUBRICANT STANDARTIZATION AND APPROVAL COMMITTEE) - an organization established by American and Japanese Associations of car manufacturers (Aaama and Jama). It is clear from the name that it is engaged exclusively by motor oils in contrast to the associations described above. The Committee tightens existing oil tolerances on the basis of its own studies.
Increased requirements are presented to the following characteristics:
Today, the classification of oils divides all the compositions for 5 categories:
Classification of ASAA oils, API, ILSAC - an important criterion for choosing a car for a car. It is always necessary to compare the requirements for the manufacturer of the car with the lubricant marks indicated on the package.
In the early 90s, the bulk of the market North America I was busy vehiclesmanufactured in Japan and USA.
It is thanks to these manufacturers that new standards in the field of motor oil certify - International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee, Ilsac began to be formed.
The name is deciphered as "International Committee for Standardization and Testing of Motor Oils". The creators of the Committee of Steel Aama are the Association of Manufacturers of America and Jama - the same association from Japan. The Committee then entered the API, and today is engaged in the approval of the newest categories of the quality of Eolcs oils.
Than ilsac useful for consumers
Often, ILSAC is considered as one of the categories API, although it can be used independently.
ILSAC is, first of all, another additional control between the manufacturer and the consumer, which is very profitable and convenient for car owners. But what qualities determines this category? These include:
- Reduced viscosity - 2.6-2.9 MPa required for engines with increased power;
- Increased stability to shear deformations ensures the performance of the composition at elevated pressure;
- Reduction of fuel consumption;
- Low phosphorus content in fuel, so that the durability of catalysts is ensured;
- Excellent filterness even at reduced operating temperatures;
- Low volatility, that is, minimal evaporation;
- Reduced foaming.
All these characteristics are confirmed by complex laboratory studies, including ASTM I-IV, ASTM, Sequence Via, General Motors.
What categories offers ILSAC
The categories here are marked as a GF digit and define five groups:
- ILSAC GF-1 - since 1996, today is considered obsolete. Fully coincided in terms of the SH API, where motor oils are presented with a viscosity of SAE 0W30, 0W40, 0W50, 5W30, 5W40, 5W50, 5W60, 10W30, 10W40, 10W50, 10W60;
- GF-2 - C 1997SPIs SJ API with classes presented in group sAE viscosity 0W30, 0W40, 5W20, 5W30, 5W40, 5W50, 10W30, 10W40 and 10W50;
- GF-3 - from 2001 as the SL API. Here are eco-friendly, economical engine oils with excellent anti-wear properties and resistance to oxion, which can guarantee engine performance even with extremely high loads. The corresponding category oil is obliged to be energy saving;
- GF-4 - from 2004, like API SM and regulated viscosity classes SAE 0W20, 0W30, 5W20, 5W30, 10W30. Energy-saving indicators are required. Moreover, the fuels of this category is highly resistant to oxidation, they have improved detergents, the least prone to the appearance of deposits. These oils are well suited for catalytic systems that restore the spent gases;
- GF-5 - introduced in 2010 together with the SN API. Everything performance features Motor oils are tightened to the limit. Increased replacement intervals and excellent detergents are also characterized. It is this oil that takes as the basis of the designers of engines of the future. They are compatible with elastomers and are perfectly protected from DVS contaminants with turbocharging.
By the way, the Motor oils of the ILSAC GF category from 1 to 5 groups are certainly all-season. 
For motor oils of gasoline engines. One of the reasons is that the classification of the API SN led a new category of engine oils called - resource-saving.
To understand that such an API SN in the resource is a saving oil, you need to deal with the API SM energy saving.
Decoding API SN and SM
When in 2005 was developed new Class API SM, he received an additional specification, more precisely, it was determined in a new category of energy-saving oils at that time, in which it is still alone (API SM).
Energy Conserving. (indicated by EC, example API SM EC.) i.e. Energy saving oil, which has low-visual properties (in other words, more fluid or liquid), due to which fuel economy was achieved at least 1.5% of the similar reference API SM.
Resource Conserving. (denotes RC, example API SN RC.) and is a resource-saving oil and in this category only the classification of the engine oil API SN. The RC Specification (Resource Conserving) appeared in 2010, when the SN API.
Summing up Notes, the difference between RC from EC is the requirements for the specification. It can be said that the resource-saving oil exceeds energy saving, as it requires not only fuel economy from high-quality oil, as well as the preservation of the parts of the exhaust system, turbocharging and compatibility with biofuels.
The SN API is not completed on this. For a more correct and understandable presentation in improvements you need to simply compare aPI Specification SN and SM.
- Improved degree of protection at high temperature in cylinders
- Less than nagar sediments
- Improved compatibility C. different species Fuel
- Improved detergent
- Improved protective properties
Requirements for the ILSAC GF-5 standard are similar to the SN RC API.
In fact, the requirements for the International Asian market are sufficiently objective. If you find on japanese oil ILSAC GF-5, you may not doubt that this oil meets the requirements of the API SN RC. The absence of a resource-saving oil specification deprives its capabilities to obtain the ILSAC GF-5 standard.
Correctly pick up lubricants for cars owners helps the marking of motor oils. Before purchasing is always given the opportunity to explore the product. Manufacturer data and main characteristics can be found on the label if you know the decryption of all the designations.

We choose engine oil in composition
Successfully selected engine oil is able to extend the engine life for a long time, and an inappropriate composition, on the contrary, will reduce the period of its service. Today there are three main groups of oils.
Synthetic (FULLY SYNTHETIC)
Drivers refer to the "synthetics" oil, since manufacturers get it using the synthesis of chemical components. This is a complex process, in which initially the basis of the future oil is laid a number of necessary parameters and the number of additives.
Such lubricants have qualities:
- reliably protect the motor;
- have excellent cleansing properties;
- not thick on a strong frost;
- capable to withstand the maximum possible heating of the unit during operation.
When using a synthetic type lubrication, the engine system elements are less wearing, as the product is well combined with a minimum amount of deposits.
Such oil evaporates very slowly, so it will have to change it less frequently. But one lack of "synthetics" still has - this is a high cost.
Semi synthetic (semi synthetic)
Inexpensive alternative for economical car owners. In terms of composition, there is a cross between "synthetics" and "mineralka". Basis at Mineral Lubrication, but to improve its characteristics, manufacturers add a large number of additives. In this case, the oil becomes half synthetic. As a result, it turns out a liquid with the content of natural components and improved qualities due to the presence of chemical additives.
Mineral (Mineral)
Oil is obtained during the processing of petroleum products. In terms of its characteristics, it is not inferior to synthetic analogues, but the natural components are more difficult to resist the effect of natural environment - low temperatures, as well as overheating of the engine and oxidation. When the liquid boils, slags are formed, which are deposited in the motor. The replacement will often have to maintain the performance of the components.
Why need to label engine oils
Thanks to the marking, consumers can quickly and deliberately select suitable lubricant To protect the engine.
The classification is made in two parameters:
- the use of the use - gasoline, turbodiel engine or diesel;
- the degree of viscosity and the ability to serve force aggregate in summer or winter.
The most common classifications of the oils are automotive communities (SAE) and the American Oil Institute (API).
The Partbox channel tells which oil to choose not to output the engine.
Marking of motor oils by SAE
In accordance with SAE Oil marked by viscosity - the most important parameter for all fuel and lubricants. It indicates the level of friction of the elements and the engine resistance to wear. Especially this indicator is important for car enthusiasts living in the northern regions of our country.
In turn, SAE is divided into three classes:
- summer (liquid);
- winter (thick);
- universal.
Most modern products belong to the third class, that is, they can be used regardless of the time of year. Oils are marked by two digits divided by a hyphen, and the letter "W" is indicated in the interval - winter (WINTER), it means that the lubricant can be used in winter time of the year. The first digit is the low temperature indicator, which can withstand oil. The second - indicates the highest temperature mark at which the fluid remains in working condition and does not boil.
In order for the meaning of the values \u200b\u200bis more understandable, we characterize several popular designations:
- 5W-30 - Mark is used to fill in the engines of the car european manufacturers. Figure 5 means the viscosity of the cold oil at the initial start of the motor. Letter "W" - the possibility of applying in cold weather. The number "30" determines the viscosity of the composition after the engine heating.
- 5W-40 - Suitable for the fastest sports cars. The viscosity viscosity interval and heated will be equal to 5 and 40, respectively. The letter "W" also reports the possibility of using in the harsh winter conditions.
Decryption of Motor Oil Marking by SAE
Oil classes on the SAE system and temperature in which fluids can work.
| Class | t, ° C | Temperature for pumping / turning crankshafts, ° C | Density, mm2 / s at 100 ° C |
| 0w. | from -40 to 10 | -35/-30 | 3,8 |
| 5w. | from -35 to 10 | -30/-25 | 3,8 |
| 10w | from -30 to 0 | -25/-20 | 4,1 |
| 15w. | from -25 to +5 | -20/-15 | 5,6 |
| 20w. | from -15 to +15 | -15/-10 | 5,6 |
| 30 | from -5 to +35 | +20/-25 | 9,3 |
| 40 | from +10 to -40 | +35/-40 | 12,5 |
| 50 | from +10 to -50 | +45/-50 | 16,3 |
| 60 | from +10 to -60 | from +50 | 21,9 |
As the first digit, the viscosity of the oil rises. Thus, the 5W-40 liquid can be used at air temperature from -35 frost to +40 degrees of heat.
Marking of motor oils API
Specialists of the Oil Institute regularly conduct testing motor oils on quality and by their results are assigned to each type of product index, respectively by manufacturers. On the labels, you first indicate the quality class characters, and the API marker follows.
According to API, the oil type is denoted by two capital latin letters. Gas engine has a sign s, diesel - s. The second letter indicates to the drivers, under what conditions it will be possible to apply this species Oil. It all depends on the aggregate itself - a new one or worn, turbocharged or normal. If the lubricant is suitable for all types of engines of this category, the designation will be double through a dash, for example, SJ / CF.
If the auto owner decides to change the class of oil, then you need to choose from those that are 1-2 points above.
Liquid more high-class You can use, and you should not choose. Oils of each subsequent class, as a rule, are usually produced with all the necessary additives for the previous category. If earlier the oil was flooded in the system, then the products with the SF or SG marking are suitable instead. But the SJ and other liquids for modern cars are immediately not recommended. You can try to apply SM if the motor is not very old.
How to decipher API marking
In total, the API system has 10 classes for petrol aggregates and 9 classes for diesel engines.

Classification of motor oils by ACEA
There is also a classification on the system of the Association of manufacturers from Europe (ACEA). Requirements for product quality similar to the API system, but some parameters are very tough. Gasoline motors Denote by the letter "A", diesel - "B". On labels, letters are combined with numbers. The bigger digit, the higher the requirements must correspond to the lubricant. So, oil with aCEA marking A3 / B3 refers to the class API SL / CF.
For compact turbine aggregates, Europeans specifically develop oils with elevated protective properties and reduced viscosity. This allows you to improve ecological indicator Product and reduce the loss of friction fluid between the details. So, aCEA oil A5 / B5 shows itself in the work much better than API SM / CI-4.
Classification of motor oils according to GOST
GOST divides motor oils to classes, taking into account the degree of viscosity, as well as on the type of type car Engine and the nature of the application of the product.
Cinematic viscosity indicators
With groups of oils according to GOST and their assignment can be found in the table.
| Groups of oils according to GOST 17479.1-85 | Purpose and operation | |
| BUT | Ordinary engines with infamited power, diesel and gasoline | |
| B. | B1. | Engines with slightly increased power, have low anti-corrosion indicators and leave deposits when heated |
| AT | IN 1 | Engines having an average power forcing |
| AT 2 | Midhoresigned with higher quality requirements | |
| G. | G1. | High-boing power engines (gasoline), designed to work in difficult conditions |
| Г2. | Highformed diesel motors with temperate turbochard or without it | |
| D. | D1 | Have the same characteristics as the previous group, but work in conditions of heavier than oils category |
| D 2 | For turbocharged diesel engines | |
| E. | E1 | Gasoline engines with reinforced power, working in more complex conditions than group D |
| E2. | High power diesel engines | |
Classification of motor oils by ILSAC
Japan's manufacturers community with American colleagues organized the International Committee for Licensing and Certification, presenting its own way of distinguishing oils in terms of quality.
The classification is designed as a system for checking the quality of oils for engines of foreign cars produced in Japan and America. Standards are similar to the API.
Characteristics of distinguishing oils that are classified by ILSAC:
- have energy-saving properties;
- save fuel (confirmed by testing);
- possess low viscosity;
- slowly evaporate;
- filtered at low temperatures;
- racks for foaming;
- increased shift resistance;
- protective properties.
- GF-5. Saves fuel, makes all the venodes of the car more efficiently work, and not just the engine. Reliably protects components from deposits with strong heating. Compatible with seals.
- GF-4. Few evaporates, saves fuel, retains the stability of oil parameters. It is characterized by improved detergent properties, contains phosphorus 0.08%, which reduces exhaust toxicity. There is a friction modifier.
- GF-3. It is characterized by an efficiency, slowly evaporates, reduces the number of deposits. It is distinguished by stability during the entire operational period.
- GF-2. Contains phosphorus up to 0.1%. It can be used under reduced temperature, prevents the formation of deposits and overheating.
- GF-1. Created in the 90s. It has a permissible minimum requirements for oil - anti-wear properties, a reduced amount of deposits, a smaller fuel consumption. The norm of phosphorus in the total volume is 0.12%.
The development contains a new class of oil - ILSAC GF-6.
Compliance with ILSAC Categories relative to the API
Let us list some of the conformity:
- The ISLAC class GF-1 is similar to the characteristics on the SH API;
- ISLAC GF-2 is similar to API SJ, as well as 0W-30, 40, 5W-20 and up to 5W-50, 10W- from 30 to 50;
- ISLAC GF-3 has compliance with the SL API;
- ILSAC GF-4 is similar to API SM (Testing pass together).
Video "How to choose the viscosity of motor oil"
On the choice of viscosity of engine oil is described in video from Toko. RU.
New classification of motor oils by API. SN. and Ilsac GF.5.
In late 2010, two new classes of motor oil api. SN and ILSAC GF5. From October 2010, licensing began. Products with new classes will appear in our market at the beginning of 2011.
The new class SM was created by the American Oil Institute (API) together with the American Professional ASTM Association (American Society for Testing Materials) and SAE (Society of Engineers of the Automotive Industry).
Difference aPI class SN from the previous SM specification is much more scaligible than the differences between the SL class. The main difference between the SN API from the previous API classifications in limiting phosphorus content for compatibility with modern systems Neutralization of exhaust gases, as well as complex energy saving. That is, the oils classified according to the API SN will approximately correspond to ASE C2, C3, C4, without an amendment to high-temperature viscosity. For the new category API SN Committee on lubricant materials He proposed to follow the same development scheme as with earlier categories of API and ILSAC. This means that all operational characteristics of motor oils for API and ILSAC will be equivalent to, except that the proposed requirements of the API SN do not include tests for wear on the Sequence IIIG method on the generated oils. These fuel tests and testing tests according to the Sequence VID method are important landmarks for oils applying for compliance with the ILSAC GF-5 standard.
The main differences between the ILSAC GF-5 from the previous classification of GF4, in the ability to work with biofuels, improved protection against wear and corrosion, greater fuel economy, improved compatibility with sealing materials and improved protection against sludgeing.
The requirements of the API SN and ILSAC GF5 are close enough and small oils, most likely, will be classified together in these two classifications.
