|
AMSOIL PC
Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are long life, premium compressor
lubricants based on novel, proprietary technology. They incorporate
the highest quality, thermally-stable PAO synthetics fortified with
premium non-detergent, ashless additives for maximum protection at
high temperatures and pressures. They last up to eight times longer
than petroleum oils, effectively reducing maintenance and waste oil
disposal costs.

Improves Compressor
Efficiency |
|
AMSOIL PC Synthetic Compressor Oils have low friction properties and
they resist viscosity increase from oxidation. They help improve
operating efficiency and save money on electrical energy consumption. |
|
|
|
Controls Foam and Reduces Wear |
|
AMSOIL PC Compressor Oils contain anti-foam additives and, unlike other
compressor oils, they are anti-wear fortified. Good foam control reduces
heat, oxidation and wear. High contact regions are protected against
wear for increased compressor life and efficiency.
|
| |
|
Resists Water Contamination |
|
Water from condensation builds up in compressors that can cause unwanted
oil/water emulsions, environmental discharge hazards and rust. AMSOIL PC
Synthetic Compressor Oils are hydrolytically stable. They resist acid
formation, readily separate from water and are anti-rust fortified.
Water can be easily drained off for simplified environmental discharge
and increased oil life. |

|
|
Resists Heat and Oxidation |
|
AMSOIL PC Series Compressor Oils combine the inherent stability of
premium synthetic base oils with specialized anti-oxidant additives to
resist varnish, carbon and acid formation. They protect compressors
better and last longer in service than petroleum oils, especially during
hot operating conditions. |

Safety Advantage |
|
AMSOIL PC
Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are ashless, high flash point
formulations with very low carbon forming tendencies that minimize
the incidence of ignition-promoting hot spots. While PC Synthetic
Compressor Oils can provide improved fire safety, they cannot be
considered non-flammable. |

Application
Recommendations |
|
The
appropriate viscosity of AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil
is recommended for use in single and multistage rotary screw, vane,
centrifugal and reciprocating compressor crankcase and cylinders,
vacuum pumps and other applications such as gears, bearings,
blowers, pumps and handheld pneumatic tools. In compressor
applications, drain intervals of 8,000 hours or more can be expected
under normal operation. Drain intervals are subject to operating
conditions and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis is
recommended. For best performance, AMSOIL recommends the compressor
be drained prior to the installation of PC Synthetic Compressor Oil.
If carbon deposits are present on the internal components, it is
recommended they be removed following the compressor manufacturer
recommendations. |
