Synthetic Ester Compressor Oil (SC3)
Podlee SC3 range oil is a cutting-edge lubricant engineered for modern air compressors, utilizing synthetic ester base oils to deliver exceptional performance in demanding industrial environments. Designed to optimize reliability and efficiency, it combines advanced thermal stability with eco-friendly properties, making it ideal for high-temperature, heavy-duty, or energy-sensitive applications.
Application
Industrial air compressors, food/pharmaceutical-grade systems (if NSF-certified), and operations prioritizing energy savings or reduced maintenance.
Advantages
Exceptional Oxidative Stability: Ensures long-term performance under harsh operating conditions.
Enhanced Lubricity & Film Strength: Optimized surface protection for critical components (e.g., rotors, bearings).
Superior Anti-Wear Performance: High film strength minimizes metal-to-metal contact, reducing component wear.
Excellent High-Temperature Performance: Maintains viscosity stability to prevent thermal breakdown and carbonization.
Extended Service Life & Reduced Maintenance: Inhibits carbon deposits, prolongs valve life, and minimizes downtime for cleaning.
Controlled Lubricant Consumption: Precisely regulates oil supply to cylinder walls and piston rings, lowering oil usage without compromising wear protection.
Improved Compressed Air Purity: Reduced oil carryover enhances air quality, critical for sensitive applications (e.g., food, pharmaceuticals).
