Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oils

Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil is a premium quality, readily biodegradable synthetic lubricant developed for use in centrifugal and rotary air compressors. Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil is particularly recommended for use in applications where operating conditions are unfavorable or too severe for conventional mineral oil-based compressor oils.

Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil is formulated with a blend of synthetic polyalkylene glycol (PAG) and synthetic ester base oils and carefully selected additives. Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil has outstanding oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures to minimize deposit formation and provide long service life. Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil has high film strength to protect against wear, and also protects against rust and corrosion. It is classified as readily biodegradable, as defined by the OECD 301B test method, for reduced environmental impact in case of leaks or spills. Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil also passes the visual “no sheen” requirements of the U.S. EPA Static Sheen Test (Federal Register Vol. 58, No. 41).

Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil is formulated to outperform conventional paraffinic or naphthenic compressor oils in oxidation resistance and deposit control. Synthetic PAG/Ester Compressor Oil has better thermal stability at high temperatures to minimize sludge and varnish formation. It also has lower volatility for lower oil consumption. These benefits result in longer service intervals and less maintenance than with conventional petroleum oils.
