LUBRICATING TOWARDS THE FUTURE

ATLANTIC REFRIGERATION COMPRESSOR OIL

ATLANTIC REFRIGERATION COMPRESSOR OIL is a high-performance lubricant that is produced from exceptionally low-wax naphthenic oil. Its primary purpose is to be utilised in refrigeration compressors, which call for unrestricted oils. It is indicated for use in refrigeration compressors that use ammonia, CFC (chlorofluorocarbon), or HCFC (hydrochlorofluorocarbon) refrigerants and have an evaporator temperature that can range down to roughly -35 degrees Fahrenheit or -37 degrees Celsius. It is compatible with the vast majority of refrigerants, with the exception of sulfur dioxide, but it is not advised for use with hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants.

PROPERTIES

As a result of the fact that ATLANTIC REFRIGERATION COMPRESSOR OIL has low pour points and excellent fluidity at very low temperatures despite the fact that it contains almost no wax, the use of this oil helps to ensure that evaporator tubes are kept clean, which improves heat transfer and reduces the amount of downtime required for maintenance. They have a high degree of chemical stability and can be used for lubricating purposes in both bearings and cylinders. Because of the extremely low moisture content, it is imperative that every effort be made to ensure that they remain dry. This helps to decrease the chance of ice forming in the expansion valves, and it also helps to reduce the risk of oil degradation and copper plating.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

  • Low wax content; long service life, which translates to less downtime and cheaper expenses for maintenance;
  • Low foam, which means that it releases dissolved refrigerant without producing an excessive amount of foam;
  • Low FLOC point, meaning it is free of wax and other components that could potentially separate apart at lower temperatures;
  • Excellent chemistry and thermodynamics stability;
  • Improves the effectiveness of the refrigeration equipment; Shields the various parts of the cooling loop from damage.
  • Good heat transfer from the evaporator and flow at low temperatures for the most effective operation of the system;
  • Multi-purpose lubricants.

APPLICATIONS

ATLANTIC REFRIGERATION COMPRESSOR OIL is a specialized product that has been developed for the purpose of the cylinder and bearing lubrication in the vast majority of traditional refrigeration compressors as well as other types of machinery that operate at temperatures below zero. Common applications include huge industrial reciprocating and rotary refrigeration compressors, industrial applications including food freezing and cold storage plants, and maritime refrigeration applications. Other applications include automobile air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Although its primary application is with ammonia as a refrigerant, it can also be utilized with certain halocarbons.
