Compressor Oils

‘’ It’s all about the right lubricant.

 

Today compressed air is an important energy source for a lot of technical applications. So producing compressed air reliably is very important for the users. That ‘s why air compressors are key for a lot of industrial applications.

 

The main tasks of a compressor lubricant include:

  • Lubricating the bearings
  • Sealing (minimizing backflow losses)
  • Dissipation of compression heat
  • Corrosion protection (iron and non-ferrous metals)
  • Wear protection

 

To meet these requirements, high-performance air compressor

lubricants need the following properties:

  • excellent oxidative and thermal stability
  • low evaporation / coking tendency
  • low foaming tendency
  • good long-term viscosity-temperature behaviour
  • good air release properties
  • high corrosion protection
  • excellent aging resistance
  • long service life
  • good filtration behaviour
  • extremely low residue formation
