lubricants used
We recommend using only oil according to following specification:
– Viscosity range of 55 cSt at 104°F.
– Minimum viscosity at 212°F of 8 cSt.
– Maximum viscosity at 32°F of 1000 cSt.
– (FZG A/8.3/90 min 10).
– Excellent oxidation stability: Meets requirements of Pneurop oxidation test.
– Antifoam – additives.
– Additives to prevent residue formation.
– Compatibility with all used sealing materials like Neoprene, FPM, PTFE,
FKM (Viton) and acrylic and epoxy resin paints.
– Flash point > 446°F.
– Additives for excellent demulsifying properties.
– Additives for corrosion protection of metallic surfaces.
– Excellent oxidation stability: Rotating bomb oxidation Test (ASTM D 2272)
higher than 2400 minutes.
– Meets VDL requirements DIN 51 506 for lube oils (including Pneurop test).
– Or you use BOGE compressor oil Syprem 8000 S. The stated mainte-
nance intervals refer to the use of Syprem 8000 S only.
– Syprem 8000 S can be purchased from BOGE retailers.
– Never mix different oil types and brands.
The additives may be incompatible. It may lead to foam formation, prema-
ture aging or loss of lubricating ability.
