Compressor Oil 68

DIN 51506 VD-L

Product Description:

The Cyclone HT grades are a range of premium quality, low carbon forming, ash free compressor oils. Lubricants for compressors vary dependent upon the type of compressor (e.g. reciprocating, rotary, screw) and also the gas being compressed (e.g. air, nitrogen and refrigerants etc.). With these features firmly in mind the Cyclone HT range of compressor oils have been designed for a large variety of manufacturers’ specifications and requirements. The Cyclone HT range of compressor oils are manufactured using carefully selected mineral oils. Inhibitors are added to control oxidation, a problem encountered in the high temperature areas of the discharge zones and anti-wear additives protect all the mechanical parts in the compressor. Cyclone HT oils are designed for a minimum 2000 hour service life assuming excessive temperatures are not encountered.

Benefits:

• Excellent oxidation stability • Low evaporation and carry over

Application:

Cyclone HT 68 is recommended for the lubrication of reciprocating (piston) type compressors. Both Cyclone HT 68 and 100 can be used in sliding vane applications where oils of these viscosities are required. Cyclone HT 150 is suitable for the lubrication of sliding vane compressors. It is vitally important when selecting the required lubricant that the equipment manufacturer’s recommendation is adhered to. Always comply with the manufacturer’s drain periods.
