Common Problems for Air Compressor Oil Selection and Recommendations

FAQ for Air compressor oil selection 

1: What is the classification of air compressor oils?
Answer: the air compressor oils can be classified into reciprocating air compressor oils and rotary air compressor oils based on the compressor structures, which also has light, medium and heavy loads. Air compressor oils can also be classified intomineral oil type and synthetic oil type according to base oils

2. What kinds of lubricants should air compressor use?
Answer: Air compressors should use special air compressor oils. Select the type of air compressor oil according to the design type, environmental conditions and operating load.In general, long-term high temperature environment (%26gt;At 30℃), use L-DAB lubricants. Compressors with high speed water cooling or low pressure and small compression ratio can use compressor oil with low viscosity.
Air cooling piston shaft output power %26lt;20KW will choose 32, 46, 100 (ambient temperature %26lt;-10℃ will choose 32)DAA, DAB, DAC air compressor oils.

3. What is the function of air compressor oil?
Air compressor oils are used as liquid lubricant in various types of machinery to reduce friction, protecting machinery and processing workpiece, mainly plays the role of lubrication, cooling, rust prevention, cleaning, sealing and buffering.

4. What are the characteristics of air compressor oils?
Because the air compressor is working in the operation environment with high pressure, high temperature and condensed water, the air compressor oils should have excellent high temperature oxidation stability, low carbon accumulation tendency, appropriate viscosive-temperature performance, and good oil-water separation, rust prevention and corrosion resistance.
