PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluids

As conditions in food plants become more demanding, so must the lubricants that keep the equipment running. Wet/humid processing environments, high air volume, and high discharge temperatures are just some of the challenging service conditions compressor oils must endure.

PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluids are specially formulated for superior resistance to oxidative decomposition caused by exposure to air at high discharge temperatures, and reduced oil thickening to improve compressor efficiency.

No more sludge and varnish! PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluids have been developed to minimize the formation of harmful varnish and lacquer deposits on rotors and separators of rotary compressors, and carbon deposits on valve assemblies of reciprocating units. This helps keep pneumatics free of sludge and varnish for smooth operation.

With low foaming tendencies, PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluids keep the lubricant film intact for improved sealing and lubrication of bearings. It also provides good anti-wear protection for bearings, and excellent rust and corrosion protection - important for running intermittent service in high humidity conditions.

PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluid's low odor provides a safer work environment, and low volatility means less top-ups, reduced oil carry-over, and improved efficiency in vacuum pump applications.

Not only does PURITY™ FG Compressor Fluid deliver outstanding synthetic-like performance and long-lasting protection, but it meets the highest food industry safety standards and can be easily integrated into HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) plans and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) programs.
