Oil handbook May 1st 2005 Energy Saving Lubricants for Process Industries is a new guide from Fuchs Lubricants (UK) that details the Renolin Unisyn Ol range of synthetic, high performance compressor oils.
These contain synthetic Polyalphaolefin base oils and additives to give long, interruptionfree operation. Compared to mineral oils, Fuchs says that the range foams less, offers better demulsification and has superior air release properties. The oils display excellent viscosity temperature behaviour, ensuring that an optimal lubricating film is always formed, even at high loads and after long periods of use.
Trials of synthetic compressor lubricant on a 100HP compressor, operating on full load over three shifts, gave savings of more than £1000 per year for one compressor. More articles from Fuchs Lubricants (UK) Plc: |
