ALUB syn S

ALUB syn S is a synthetic lubricant which has been developed based on special poly-
alfa-olefins for prolonged use in screw compressors in which maximum compression
temperatures reach 110 °C (120 °C) and where the lubricant is exposed to high levels of
oxidation.

Advantages

• Excellent oxidative and thermal stability


→ lower tendency to age and acidify
→ less contamination with unwanted gases
→ Oxygen, which has an aggressive impact on the lubricant, is less damaging to
our ALUB syn S and hence decomposition is inhibited
→ low rate of decomposition, even at high temperatures

• Good demulsibility
→ Low proportion of condensate in the lubricant which means less
rust and fewer residues

• Maximum compression temperatures up to 110 °C (120 °C)


→ viscosity remains stable over long periods of use

• Low tendency to carbonise and vaporise


→ deposit resistant

• Low tendency to foam


→ good thermal release

• Good air release


→ which means slower ageing and lower maximum temperatures

• Good protection against corrosion


→ machinery lasts longer, keeps its value

• Excellent cleaning properties


→ Changing to ALUB syn S removes deposits and contamination

• Excellent protection against EP wear


→ This minimises wear if during the start-up phase the lubricant film ruptures and
metal comes into direct contact with metal

• Excellent resistance to ageing


→ break up of the lubricant chains delayed.

• Very good viscosity - temperature ratio


→ functions well at low temperatures
→ lubricant circulation unaffected by low temperatures
→ lubricant rapidly distributed in the pressure chamber even at low
temperatures

Other key advantages of ALUB syn S

I. Increased operating safety

• Very high self-ignition temperatures


→ thermal stability is from 50 - 80 °C above comparable
mineral lubricants, which reduces the risk of fire

• Very wide range of operating temperatures


→ no need for seasonal lubricant replacement
→ stable viscosity even at high temperatures
→ very good cold start at low temperatures

• Very good thermal conductivity


→ up to 10% better than comparable mineral oil-based lubricants.

• No internal residues: the machinery stays clean

• Switching to ALUB syn S


→ cleans up the lubrication circuit

• A thick, adhesive lubrication film means


→ better anti-friction properties
→ improved protection against corrosion
→ the film remains intact even after the machine has been at a standstill for some
time

• Low vapour pressure means


→ up to 50% less lubricant residue in the compressed air
= less load on the next system downstream with lower proportion of lubricant

• Does not have a strong tendency to form an emulsion, which means


→ better lubrication in the compressor system
→ good lubricant / water separation in the condensate

• Longer lasting systems


→ more reliability with ALUB syn S

II. Save time and maintenance costs

• Excellent oxidative stability


→ longer intervals between changes

• Longer intervals between changes mean


→ less waste to dispose off
→ lower disposal costs

• Up to 15% longer life for the high precision separators


→ with less residue
→ less contamination of the lubricant
→ less decomposition and corrosion

• Internal cooler cleaning


→ ALUB syn S makes it unnecessary to clean the inside of the cooling system as
it has a self-cleaning action.

III. Savings on energy costs

• Low power demand (kW min/m3)


→ ALUB syn S reduces energy requirements by up to 2%
(fewer reverse flow losses, lower internal friction)

• Less pressure loss on the high precision separators (= additional energy


costs)
→ reduction with ALUB syn S: approximately 15%
→ fewer dirt deposits

• Effective use of heat throughout the lubrication circuit


→ with its excellent thermal conductivity, ALUB syn S improves
energy yield by up to 10%
