| Phillips 66® Ammonia Compressor Oil is an inhibited paraffinic circulating oil specifically developed for use in reciprocating and rotary screw compressors in industrial refrigeration systems using ammonia or carbon dioxide. Ammonia Compressor Oil is specially formulated to resist degradation when exposed to nitrogen compounds and acids formed when compressed ammonia comes into contact with the oil and condensed water. It has excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures to minimize sludge and varnish formation, and provide long service life. It has a low pour point for use in ammonia refrigeration systems used for sub-zero cooling. It has excellent water separating properties to minimize the formation of emulsions, protects system components against rust and corrosion, and is resistant to excessive foam buildup that can interfere with proper lubrication. Ammonia Compressor Oil meets the performance requirements of major manufacturers of ammonia refrigeration compressors. It is not recommended for use with CFC, HCFC or HFC refrigerants such as Freon®-12, Freon®-22 or R 134a. Applications: - Refrigeration compressors using ammonia or carbon dioxide as the refrigerant
- Cold storage facilities
- Ice making machines
- Circulating systems in chemical plants and mills where contamination with moisture or aqueous gas is a problem
Features/Benefits:- Excellent resistance to chemical degradation
- Excellent oxidation resistance and thermal stability
- Provides longer service life than conventional naphthenic ammonia refrigeration oils
- Excellent water-separating properties
- Low pour point
- Protects against rust and corrosion
- Good foam resistance
