Compressor Oil Analysis

Compressor oils are polyalphaolefin-based oils that are produced by blending full synthetic base oils and special additives, providing long life, high performance and trouble-free operation even under the toughest conditions and high temperatures.

Compressor oils are used in all types of screw and vane air compressors. The important issue for compressor oils is that they should be resistant to harsh climate, environment and high temperature conditions. Under normal operating conditions, it should have a service life of 8000 hours. It should have high oxidation resistance, tend to form low soot, and be easily separated from water.
