AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil (SEI) is formulated with premium
synthetic ester technology. This high-quality, long-life fluid lasts
several times longer in use than mineral-based oils. AMSOIL SIROCCO®
Compressor Oil is fully formulated with nondetergent additives and
is designed for use in rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps.
SIROCCO® effectively protects against wear, oxidation, foam and rust
and has inherent lubricity and good thermal conductivity which allow
it to reduce heat and energy consumption. AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor
Oil increases operating efficiency, reducing money spent on energy,
repair and maintenance costs.
AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil maintains performance across a
wide operating temperature range. Its low pour point, high viscosity
index and lack of paraffin's (wax) makes it an excellent all season
lubricant. At high temperatures, SIROCCO® forms virtually no carbon,
allowing for clean operation. At cold temperatures, equipment starts
easier and the lubricant is quickly pumped to critical components,
preventing lubricant starvation and excessive wear. SIROCCO®
Compressor Oil also resists water to prevent damaging oil/water
emulsions, allowing for longer lubricant life and ease of water
removal from the sump.

AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil is a multi-viscosity oil meeting
the requirements of 5W-20. It may be used in applications calling
for either an ISO-32 or ISO-46 compressor oil or coolant. It is
recommended for use in single and multi-stage rotary screw
compressors and vacuum pumps that call for this viscosity.
When
installing AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil, it is recommended that
the old oil be thoroughly drained and if warranted, the system
cleaned. If a lot of carbon or residue is found on the internal
compressor parts, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for
removal prior to installing the new oil. AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor
Oil has a high level of solvency and may remove deposits left in the
system. Check the filters and oil/air separators regularly for the
first 500 hours of operation and replace as necessary.
AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Compressor Oil is compatible with and recommended as a
replacement for much higher priced polyalkylene glycol (PAG)
compressor oils or coolants such as Sullair Sullube 32® and
Ingersoll Rand SSR Ultra Coolant®. No flushing is necessary when
changing over from Glycol Coolants to AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor
Oil. However, draining the system and changing the filters is
recommended.
AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil is recommended for use up to
8,000+ hours for most compressor applications. However, this is
subject to operating conditions and maintenance practices.
Monitoring by oil analysis every 1,000 hours is recommended. |
