Standard test methods
Used world-wide for quality control. CEC Test Methods are used extensively by the automotive and petroleum industries in Europe and throughout the world.
By using CEC test methods to the approved quality standards, OEM's and suppliers avoid the requirement for expensive and time-consuming individual tests.
CEC develops timely, quality focused and cost-effective test methods in response to Industry needs.
These tests evaluate automotive engine oil, fuels and transmission fluids, using gasoline and diesel engines. CEC test methods also cover marine & large engine oils, two-stroke engine Oils, associated bench tests, plus industrial and hydraulic Fluids.
