Energy efficiency relates solely to the fluid performance when compared with conventional reference oils of the same viscosity grade in
gear applications. The technology used allows up to 3.6 percent efficiency compared with the reference when tested in circulating and gear applications under controlled conditions. Efficiency improvements will vary based on operating conditions and applications.
