DC Series Synthetic Ester Compressor Oils ISO 100 & 150
DC Series Synthetic Ester Compressor Oils ISO 100 & 150 are long-life, extended-drain premium compressor lubricants, based on novel, proprietary technology, DC Series Oil significantly improve operational temperatures, hydrolytic stability, oxidative resistance, Oils service life, demulsibility and wear protection.
DC Series Synthetic Ester Compressor Oil incorporate the highest quality shear-stable, synthetic Diester fluids and are fortified with a premium non-detergent/ashless additive system for maximum protection and superior lubrication at high temperatures and pressures, where petroleum lubricants typically break down.
DC Series Synthetic Ester Compressor Oil are designed to eliminate deficiencies common to petroleum compressor Oil - specifically, thermal and oxidative degradation (which causes carbon varnish and sludge formation), Oils and water emulsions (which can lead to rust and excessive wear), lubricant degradation and weight loss (due to hydrolytic instability or high-temperature vaporization).
The performance of synthetic base fluids ensures problem-free operation with service intervals up to 10 times longer than possible with mineral Oils-based lubricants, producing a tremendous cost advantage. Studies indicate that synthetic lubricants can reduce energy consumption by as much as 10 percent, while providing clean operations, extended Oils drain intervals and increased uptime. This performance increases efficiency and savings on energy, repair and maintenance costs.

APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
The appropriate viscosity of AMSOIL DC Synthetic Compressor Oil is recommended
for use in rotary vane and reciprocating compressors and vacuum pumps. Drain intervals of 8,000 hours or more can be expected under normal operation. This is subject to operating conditions and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended.
SAFETY ADVANTAGE
AMSOIL DC Series Compressor Oil have a dramatically higher flash point and are usually deposit-free compared to petroleum Oil. This contributes to an increase in the fire safety of the product. AMSOIL DC Series Oil increase fire safety; however, they cannot be considered non-flammable.
