OIL SPECIFICATIONS
High-quality, mineral, hydraulic or synthesized
hydrocarbon oil with rust and oxidation inhibitors anti-
foam and anti-wear properties is recommended.
The viscosity grade should correspond to the ambient
temperature and ISO 3448.
PAROIL from Atlas Copco is the ONLY oil tested and
approved for use in all engines built into Atlas Copco
compressors and generators.
Extensive laboratory and field endurance tests on Atlas
Copco equipment have proven PAROIL to match all
lubrication demands in varied conditions. It meets
stringent quality control specifications to ensure your
equipment will run smoothly and reliably.
The quality lubricant additives in PAROIL allow for
extended oil change intervals without any loss in
performance or longevity.
PAROIL provides wear protection under extreme
conditions. Powerful oxidation resistance, high chemical
stability and rust- inhibiting additives help reduce
corrosion, even within engines left idle for extended
periods.
PAROIL contains high quality anti-oxidants to control
deposits, sludge and contaminants that tend to build up
under very high temperatures. PAROIL's detergent
additives keep sludge forming particles in a fine
suspension, instead of allowing them to clog your filter
and accumulate in the valve/rocker cover area.
PAROIL releases excess heat efficiently, whilst
maintaining excellent bore-polish protection to limit oil
consumption.
PAROIL has an excellent Total Base Number (TBN)
retention and more alkalinity to control acid formation.
PAROIL prevents Soot build-up.
PAROIL is optimized for the latest low emission EURO -
3 & -2, EPA TIER II & III engines running on low sulphur
diesel for lower oil and fuel consumption.
PAROIL E xtra is a Synthetic ultra high performance
diesel engine oil with a high viscosity- index. Atlas Copco
PAROIL E xtra is designed to provide excellent
lubrication from start-up at temperatures as low as -25°C
(-13°F).
PAROIL E Mission Green is a mineral based high
performance diesel engine oil with a high viscosity- index.
Atlas Copco PAROIL E Mission Green is designed to
provide a high level of performance and protection under
'standard' ambient conditions from -10°C (14°F) onward.
PAROIL E xtra and PAROIL E Mission Green are low
SAPS oil. These oils are to be used in Tier 4I / Stage IIIB
engines in order to provide the full performance and life of
the engine and aftertreatment systems.
It is strongly recommended to use Atlas
Copco branded lubrication oils for both
compressor and engine.
Only use synthetic compressor oil.
Never mix synthetic with mineral oil.
Remark:
When changing from mineral to synthetic oil
(or the other way around), you will need to do
an extra rinse:
After a complete change over to synthetic oil,
run the unit for a few minutes to allow proper
and complete circulation of the synthetic oil.
Then drain the synthetic oil again and fill again
with new synthetic oil. To set correct oil levels,
follow the normal instructions.
