DESCRIPTION
Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic is
a premium quality lubricant specifically designed to extend fluid service life
in rotary screw air compressor applications.
Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic is
formulated with a blend of 99.9 % pure base oils produced using a patented HT
purity process. These crystal clear fluids are free of impurities that can
hinder lubricant performance. These thermally stable fluids are fortified with
a unique anti-oxidant technology to maximize resistance to fluid breakdown.
With equal or better resistance to
thermal and oxidative breakdown versus leading PAO synthetic based fluids, Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic provides up to 8,000 hours or one year of
continuous worry free service and can significantly reduce compressor operating
costs.
BENEFITS
Resists
oxidative breakdown better than leading synthetic PAO based fluids:
§ Better
resistance to oxidative breakdown caused by exposure to air at high discharge
temperatures.
§ Keeps
compressor components free of sludge and varnish to ensure trouble free
operation and lower maintenance costs on fluid change-out.
§ Extends
oil change intervals up to 8,000 hours service in rotary screw compressors and
1,000 hours service in rotary vane compressors.
§ Reduces
oil thickening, which can improve compressor efficiency and lower energy
consumption costs
Higher
thermal stability reduces carbon deposit formation and extends fluid life:
§ Improves
compressor operating efficiency.
§ Extends
maintenance intervals for valves and intercoolers.
§ Lowers
maintenance costs.
Excellent
protection against wear:
§ Prolongs
the service life of working components.
§ Can
extend the time between compressor overhauls.
§ Reduces
overall maintenance costs.
Protects
against rust and corrosion:
- Helps to extend component life, especially when running intermittent service in high humidity conditions.
Low
volatility reduces oil carry-over into the air system:
- Reduces fluid consumption costs.
Chemically
inert and low in odour:
- Eliminates unpleasant odours experienced with di-ester based chemistries.
- Does not damage painted surfaces.
APPLICATIONS
Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic
may be used to lubricate and cool all types of rotary vane, reciprocating,
centrifugal and lobe air compressors; it is specifically designed to
significantly extend service life in rotary screw compressors. It is available
in five ISO viscosity grades: 32, 46, 68, 100 and 150 to cover most compressor
applications.
Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic is
suitable for use in compressors that handle air, and inert gases such as
nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, neon, helium, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and
blast furnace gas.

OPERATIONAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The full benefits of a change to Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi
Synthetic will only be realized by minimizing contamination with the previously
used oil. Certain makes of compressors do not permit complete draining, so if
the drained oil is heavily oxidized (shown by significant increase in the oil’s
total acid number and viscosity), recharging with Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi
Synthetic may not result in optimum performance and fluid service life.
While Spec oil Compressor 32 Semi Synthetic is fully compatible
with most mineral and synthetic compressor fluids, it should not be mixed or
contaminated with fluids containing polyalkylene glycols or silicones.
