Superior Lubrication
In the realm of industrial machinery, particularly in the domain of MD Pneumatic blowers, ensuring optimal performance is not just a matter of routine maintenance – it’s a strategic choice. In a previous blog, we delved into the significance of MD synthetic oil for warranty compliance. Now, as the warranty time frame expires, you may need to explore another exceptional lubricant that goes beyond the ordinary – the AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil.
Unveiling the AMSOIL PC Series
The AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil, available in ISO VG 32 to 100, is not just a lubricant; it’s a commitment to longevity and efficiency. This premium compressor lubricant is formulated with cutting-edge technology, featuring top-tier thermally stable PAO synthetics fortified with premium non-detergent additives. The result? A lubricant that stands the test of time, lasting up to 8,000 hours and significantly reducing maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.
Formulated for Efficiency
Efficiency is the hallmark of the AMSOIL PC Series Oil. With low-friction properties, it resists viscosity increase from oxidation, contributing to improved operating efficiency. This not only enhances performance but also translates into cost savings over the long run.
Controls Foam and Reduces Wear
Foam and wear are adversaries of industrial machinery. The AMSOIL PC Series Oil is armed with anti-foam additives and anti-wear fortification. Effective foam control reduces heat, oxidation, and wear, providing protection to high-contact regions. This results in increased compressor life and lower maintenance costs.
Resists Water Contamination
Water contamination is a common challenge in compressors, leading to unwanted oil/water emulsions that cause rust and corrosion. AMSOIL PC Series Oil is hydrolytically stable, resisting acid formation and separating easily from water. This not only simplifies disposal but also extends oil life.
Resists Heat and Oxidation
Operating conditions can be harsh, especially in hot environments. AMSOIL PC Series Oil combines premium synthetic base oils with specialized anti-oxidant additives, resisting varnish, carbon, and acid formation. The result is a lubricant that protects compressors better and lasts longer than petroleum oils.
Safety Advantage
Safety is paramount, and AMSOIL PC Series Oil delivers with an ashless, high-flash-point formulation. While providing improved fire safety, it’s essential to note that it cannot be considered non-flammable. However, it minimizes the incidence of ignition-promoting “hot spots.”
Applications and Recommendations
AMSOIL PC Series Oil finds its application in various industrial scenarios, including single and multistage rotary screw, vane, centrifugal, and reciprocating compressor crankcases and cylinders. It’s versatile enough to be used in vacuum pumps, pressure washer pumps, gears, bearings, blowers, and pumps.
For optimal performance, it is recommended to use the appropriate viscosity of AMSOIL PC Series Oil and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines. The product is designed for drain intervals of 8,000 hours or more under normal operation, with monitoring by oil analysis recommended.
Technical Properties at a Glance
Understanding the technical properties of AMSOIL PC Series Oil is crucial for making an informed choice. Here’s a snapshot of the typical technical properties:
The compatibility of AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil extends to various gases, making it a versatile choice for a range of applications. It is compatible with petroleum oils, most synthetic oils, seals, paints, and materials.
Health, Safety, and Warranty
AMSOIL prioritizes health and safety, ensuring that the product, when used as intended, does not pose health concerns. Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are available for reference, emphasizing responsible use and disposal. The product is backed by a Limited Liability Warranty, adding an extra layer of assurance for users.
Compatibility with Materials
The compatibility of AMSOIL PC Series Oil extends to paints, plastics, and elastomers. From epoxy and oil-resistant alkyd to various plastics like ABS and polyamide, this lubricant is designed to coexist seamlessly with a wide range of materials.
It’s important to note the exceptions – AMSOIL PC Series Oil is not recommended for “breathing air” or refrigeration compressors. Additionally, caution is advised with certain plastics and rubber types, as mentioned in the technical properties section.
