Mineral Based Replacement 250022669 Sullair Compressor Oil
Replacement Sullair 250022669 Air Compressor Lubricating Oil
Why do machines need air compressor lubricants?
1. The disperse heat
Too much heat weakens key components, ultimately leading to premature failures and unnecessary repairs. Compressor lubricants suck heat out of the compressed air and vulnerable parts of the compressor components. This is especially true for rotary screw compressors, which tend to produce more heat than other designs.
2. Prevent wear and tear
Many air compressors operate at speeds in excess of 1,000 RPM; This causes a lot of wear and tear on the cylinders, rings and motors. Compressor lubricants are particularly viscous and are designed to minimize friction that can break down and destroy important components over time.
3. Increase efficiency
The consistency of the compressor oil is sufficient to seal the mechanism effectively, prevent air escape and maximize equipment efficiency. A well-lubricated compressor does not have to circulate often. Therefore, replacing hydraulic fluids as needed can greatly reduce your operating costs.
4. Choose the right lubricant
Manufacturers offer a variety of high-quality compressor lubricants, so narrowing the selection can be confusing. The type of lubricant suitable for your machine depends on the design, application and conditions of use of the compressor. Your user manual may recommend a product, but the best approach is to talk to a professional who can guide you through the correct liquid.
