TOTAL QUARTZ EV Fluid

PIONEERING ELECTRICAL LUBRICATION

TotalEnergies is committed to better energy

Our line of fluids for electric and hybrid vehicles, now available from Total Lubricants, is in line with TotalEnergies Climate Strategy and the Company's ambition to reduce the carbon footprint of the energy products offered to its customers. After several months of R&D, our team has developed QUARTZ EV FLUID, a highly innovative product for Electric Vehicles that improves both performance and efficiency.

History

In 1900, there were more Electric Vehicles (EVs) than internal combustion powered vehicles, but due to poorly performing batteries of the time, the future of those Electric Vehicles (EV) were bleak.This created a greater demand in the market for internal combustion engines, and in less than 15 years they dominated the automobile industry.

QUARTZ EV-FLUID

The QUARTZ EV-FLUID is the first fluid range in the market that improves performance & throttle response of today’s EVs. Standard fluids are no longer able to perform in terms of maintaining top performance, dealing with overheating and lowering wear & tear.

Technical Requirement

TOTAL Lubricants with its R&D team has worked round the clock to develop new fluids that meet the requirements of the latest industrial standards in Electric Vehicles with the following features:

Dielectric property Fluids utilized in Electric Vehicles (EV) must have an electric insulation property to prevent arching, as it runs in close contact with electrical components in EVs. So, despite the harsh operating conditions viz. rising temperature, oxidation, particle abrasion, and overcurrent, these Dielectric properties help fluids remain stable and function as they should.

Material compatibility Our fluids are engineered to work in full contact with the internal components of all Electric Vehicles without any affecting their function. As copper is a key element in many of the components used, our R&D team has developed lubricants with excellent copper compatibility

Thermal properties In an EV, power is derived from an engine operating within a defined temperature range. Operating at a higher temperature outside this range, reduces the vehicle’s life through diminishing efficiency and power. Our fluids therefore ensure efficiency via heat evacuation at temperatures up to 18000C.
