  • Klüber Summit SH 68

    Klüber Summit SH 68

    Synthetic air compressor oils for oil change intervals up to 10,000 operating hours

    Application Klüber Summit SH 68

    Klüber Summit SH oils have been designed especially for the lubrication of highly loaded, oil-injected screw-type compressors with oil change intervals up to 10,000 operating hours. Klüber Summit SH oils can also be used for compressors that were previously run with mineral oils. They are neutral towards most elastomer seals used in air compressors, therefore leakage is not to be expected. Klüber Summit SH 32 is especially suitable for centrifugal compressors and Klüber Summit SH 100 for reciprocating piston compressors. Klüber Summit SH oils offer good oxidation stability due to the synthetic base oil, thus minimizing oxidation residues in the compressors and extending oil change intervals and the service life of oil filters and separators. Special inhibitors contained in the oils keep the inside of compressors clean. Owing to the evaporation stability of the base oil, the oil vapour content in the compressed air can be considerably reduced compared to conventional mineral oils. This contributes to a reduction of oil consumption and clean compressed air; gumming of pneumatic valves in the compressed air circuit can be prevented as well due to the low oil content of the Klüber Summit SH oils.

  • Klüber Summit Ultima 68

    Klüber Summit Ultima 68

    Synthetic air compressor oils for oil change intervals up to 12,000 operating hours

    Application Klüber Summit Ultima 68

    Klüber Summit Ultima oils have been especially designed for screw-type compressors subject to high loads. They are used for oil change intervals up to 12,000 operating hours in oilinjected screw-type compressors. Klüber Summit Ultima oils can be used for compressors that were previously run with mineral oils. Klüber Summit Ultima oils are neutral towards most elastomer seals used in air compressors, therefore leakage is not to be expected. Klüber Summit Ultima oils offer better oxidation stability than conventional synthetic oils due to the synthetic base oil content, thus minimising oxidation residues in the compressors and extending oil change intervals and the service life of oil filters and separators. Special inhibitors contained in the oil keep the inside of compressors clean and ensure a high efficiency. Owing to the evaporation stability of the base oil, the oil vapour content in the compressed air can be reduced several-fold compared to conventional mineral oils. This contributes to a reduction of oil consumption and clean compressed air; it also helps to prevent the gumming of pneumatic valves in the compressed air circuit.

Screw Compressor Oil: The Silent Force Behind Smoothly Operating Compressors

In the world of e-commerce and industrial production, where efficiency and reliability are essential, screw compressors play a crucial role in delivering compressed air for various applications. However, what is often overlooked is the importance of the right screw compressor oil to keep these machines running smoothly and reliably. In this article, we will delve deeper into the role and benefits of screw compressor oil, why it is vital for e-commerce operations, and how to ensure that your compressors perform optimally.

Why is Screw Compressor Oil Important for Businesses?

Screw compressor oil is essential for several reasons:

  1. Optimal Lubrication: Screw compressors operate with narrow tolerances and high rotational speeds. The right oil ensures optimal lubrication, reducing friction and wear, thus extending the machine's lifespan.

  2. Cooling and Sealing: The oil not only aids in lubrication but also dissipates heat generated during the compression process. Additionally, it provides sealing between the screws, preventing leakage and improving efficiency.

  3. Efficiency and Reliability: Well-lubricated compressors perform more efficiently and reliably, leading to less downtime and improved production capacity for businesses.

  4. Longer Machine Lifespan: Using the right screw compressor oil contributes to extending the compressors' lifespan, resulting in cost savings.

How to Choose the Right Screw Compressor Oil for Your Business?

When selecting the right screw compressor oil, there are some key considerations:

  1. Viscosity: Choose an oil with the appropriate viscosity that matches your screw compressor's specifications. The viscosity should be suitable for operating conditions, including temperature and load.

  2. Additives: Consider whether specific additives, such as antioxidants, anti-foaming agents, and pressure additives, are needed to meet your screw compressor's specific requirements.

  3. Maintenance Schedule: Follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule to ensure that the oil is regularly changed, and performance is maintained.

  4. Environmental or Food-Safe Factors: Consider the environmental conditions in which your screw compressor operates. If it operates in a humid environment, choose an oil that provides extra protection against corrosion. For food-producing businesses, where there is a chance of air coming into contact with the food product, opt for a food-safe lubricant.

Questions and Answers

How often should I replace screw compressor oil?

The replacement interval varies depending on usage frequency and your screw compressor's specifications. Generally, it is recommended to change the oil every 3 to 6 months, but this can vary.

What are the signs that my screw compressor oil needs to be replaced?

Signs of worn-out oil include increased friction, abnormal noises, reduced performance, and visible wear on the screws. If you notice any of these symptoms, it's time to replace the oil for optimal performance of your screw compressor.
