Compressor & Vacuum Pump Lubricants
Chemlube CF46 is a synthetic lubricant designed for use in centrifugal compressors. The carefully designed additive package in Chemlube CF46 provides anti-wear properties to protect the bull gears which operate at 1200-3600 RPM. At the same time, Chemlube CF46 lubricates and protects the high speed (30,000-50,000 RPM) impeller bearings. Chemlube CF has been used successfully for many years in large and small centrifugal compressors.
Characteristics
- Energy savings – generally 3-5%.
- Greatly extended oil change intervals (5X petroleum).
- -Less downtime for maintenance
- -Reduced waste oil disposal cost
- Eliminates or reduces varnish and shellac on critical component surfaces.
- Increased thermal and oxidative stability over petroleum oils.
- High flash point helps reduce fire hazards.
- Gearboxes can actually run cooler due to reduced friction.
- Contains anti-wear additives.
- Wide operating temperature range and high viscosity index.
