Industrial Grade Synthetic Compressor Oils

Performance Designed For Industry


The FIRST in Synthetics
. . . the FIRST in Performance

AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils increase the productivity


and profitability of your operations.

AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are superior to conventional lubricants


in areas of thermal and oxidative stability, expanded high and
low operational temperature ranges, increased heat transfer
capabilities, reduced energy consumption and extended drain
capabilities.

Scientifically Designed Created by science rather than by geological accident, AMSOIL


synthetic base fluids are pure, synthesized fluids obtained by
precise chemical reaction. The chemical makeup and unique prop-
erties improve virtually every aspect in lubrication – particularly
in severe operating conditions.

Pure Construction The carefully controlled and monitored processes used to


manufacture AMSOIL synthetic base fluids eliminates impurities,
contaminants and unsaturation – the primary cause of lubricant
breakdown which commonly plague conventional lubricants.
Uniform molecular geometry improves efficiency and has demon-
strated reduced heat and energy consumption – a direct savings.

Bottom Line AMSOIL synthetic compressor oils increase the productivity


and profitability of your operations. By providing superior overall
lubricating performance, you can expect longer lasting com-
pressors, fewer unscheduled maintenance requirements, less
oil consumption and improved operating efficiency. In addition,
AMSOIL compressor lubricants last several times longer than
conventional lubricants resulting in lower maintenance and
waste oil disposal costs. Through better lubrication, AMSOIL
improves your bottom line.

The leader in synthetic lubrication
design, AMSOIL introduced the world’s
first American Petroleum Institute rated
synthetic motor oil in 1972.

AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils are . . .


Designed for compressors used in extreme, severe
or routine service.
Manufactured from top-quality synthetic-based
fluids according to a stringent process quality
control protocol.
Consistent in the delivery of dependable, clean
lubrication and long-lasting protection.
Represented by trained and certified sales
personnel and backed by a team of support
technicians.
Sold factory-direct at competitive prices.
Available in a complete line of viscosity grades.
Your best assurance of compressors that stay
on-line and production that remains on-schedule.

Advantage AMSOIL: Protection


AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils are designed for optimum
compressor lubrication and protection. They extend compressor life
and reduce maintenance costs by fighting all of the degradative
processes found in compressor applications.

Heat Control
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils have demonstrated temperature
reductions of hot running equipment using conventional lubricants
by as much as 40° F. This is due to the oil’s low coefficient of friction,
low internal fluid friction and good thermal conductivity.
AMSOIL synthetic compressor oils form
virtually no foam during ASTM D892 testing.
Sludge, Varnish, Lacquer and Carbon Control
Before AMSOIL, AMSOIL Compressor Oils’ unique synthetic base oil technology is
discharge is an inherently resistant to thermal and oxidative breakdown. These oils,
oil/water emulsion combined with premium anti-oxidants, result in oils that eliminate
or greatly minimize the formation of sludge, varnish, lacquer and
carbon. Also, the good solvency characteristics clean systems as
well as provide keep-clean performance.

Corrosion, Emulsion and Foam Control


AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils are stable in the presence of
water, and they readily separate from water. This prevents unwanted
oil/water emulsions that inhibit an oil’s ability to lubricate. It allows

Greater Safety
AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils make your plant a safer place
to work by minimizing fire and explosion hazard. AMSOIL Com-
pressor Oils’ flash, fire and auto ignition points are higher than
those of competitive petroleum fluids. Plus, their resistance to
carbon deposit formation combined with the ashless additive
system minimizes the incidence of ignition-promoting hot spots.

Advantage AMSOIL: Savings


Your choice of compressor oil affects more than compressor life.
It affects profitability. With AMSOIL Compressor Oils, you will increase
your profitability through lower energy consumption, lower lubricant
consumption and lower maintenance costs.

Enhanced Efficiency
Because of AMSOIL Compressor Oils’ low frictional characteristics,
losses due to drag are minimized, and energy used for gas com-
pression is maximized. Also, little or no carbon forming on valves
limits the detrimental effect of recompression, which is the result of
hot air continually being recompressed due to deposits not allow-
ing the exhaust valves to completely close during the intake stroke.
Increase in efficiency can result in reduced power consumption by
as much as 7 to 8 percent.

AMSOIL Synthetic PC Compressor Oils
AMSOIL Synthetic PC Compressor Oils are made from high qual-
ity, shear stable synthetic base oils that provide long compressor
life through reduced component wear, corrosion protection , water
resistance and resistance to lubricant breakdown. These oils also
extend drain intervals and reduce maintenance costs by lowering
labor and used oil disposal requirements.
AMSOIL PC Compressor Oils’ proprietary combination of unique
synthetic base oils combines the advantages of esters and Poly
Alpha Olefins (PAO’s) into one balanced product. The naturally
high viscosity indices, low pour points, low volatility and excellent
thermal stability make the PC Series good for use in a wide oper-
ating temperature range. These oils prevent carbon build-up, pro-
vide clean performance and exhibit low frictional characteristics. These
attributes increase operational efficiency and have demonstrated
reduced energy consumption and operating temperatures.
AMSOIL PC Oils are recommended for use as high-quality replace-
ments for high-priced original equipment manufacturer synthetic
lubricants. Applications include vacuum pumps and single or
multi-stage rotary screw, vane and reciprocating compressors. The
correct viscosity grade of AMSOIL PC Oils can also be used in light
duty gear and bearing applications, blowers, pumps, pneumatic
tools and hydraulic or circulating systems. Consult the manufacturer
for viscosity recommendations.
AMSOIL Compressor Oils are compatible with petroleum oils,
most synthetic oils and almost all seals, paints and materials com-
monly used in compressors. Compressors lubricated with com-
patible fluids may be converted simply by draining the old fluid and
installing AMSOIL.
Process Gases suitable for use with the PC Series Oils:
Nitrogen, hydrogen, helium, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide (dry),
ethylene, ethane, methane, propane, butane, propylene, butylene,
natural gas, benzene, butadiene, furnace (crack gas), hydrogen
sulfide (dry), sulfur hexaflouride, synthetic gas, sulfur dioxide.
Consult your AMSOIL Industrial Distributor or AMSOIL INC. for
additional information on compatibility.
AMSOIL PC Series Compressor Oils are not recommended for “breathing air” or refrigeration compressors.
Marginal compatibility with polycarbonate plastic, butyl, ethylene-propylene and SBR rubber. Not com-
patible with silicon or glycol fluids such as PAG’s.
