Cetus PAO Oils (formerly Super Ardea S) are premium performance, synthetic compressor oils based on polyalphaolefin technology. They contain rust and oxidation inhibitors and anti-wear additives to give outstanding oxidation resistance, corrosion protection and minimal wear under severe operating conditions. They are available in ISO grades 46 and 68.
RECOMMENDED FOR
Flooded screw compressors and both rotary and reciprocating air compressors when extended oil change periods are desired (more than 8000 hours under normal operating conditions) and where high temperatures and severe conditions are encountered.
Both portable and stationary plant and are eminently suitable for stand-by or emergency compressors on a "fill and forget" basis.
Medium speed marine diesel engine turbochargers.
Not recommended for use in breathing air compressors.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
Extended oil service life:
Outstanding oxidation stability of the polyalphaolefin base fluid and inhibitor system resists oil breakdown at the elevated temperatures encountered in compressor service, permitting oil drain intervals to be extended beyond those achieved with conventional lubricants.
Minimum maintenance and downtime:
Polyalphaolefin base fluid ensures an effective oil film to protect highly loaded parts against wear under high temperature operating conditions, as well as during low temperature start-up. Effective inhibitor system provides excellent rust and corrosion protection under all conditions. Anti-wear additive minimises wear under severe operating conditions.
Trouble-free operation in severe service:
Outstanding thermal and oxidation stability enables the polyalphaolefin lubricant to resist deposit formation in the heat of the compression cycle, even under the most severe service conditions.
Extended range of applications:
High viscosity index and low pour points of the polyalphaolefin base fluid permits application in a wider range of ambient operating temperatures than with conventional lubricants.
