SAFER OILS FOR AIR COMPRESSORS

Abstract

BURMAH‐CASTROL have developed a range of lubricants to combat the higher loads and temperatures now experienced in modern air compressors. Very high air discharge temperatures have become more common and air compressor fires and explosions represent an increasing risk. A dominant factor in reducing these hazards is the type and quality of lubricant used.
