Anderol Royco 800 series lubricants
Anderol, Inc., a global manufacturer of specialty synthetic lubricants introduced its ROYCO® 800 series lubricants at The Gas and Oil Exposition (GO-EXPO) 2007, in Calgary, Canada, earlier this year.
Approved by major compressor OEMs, the ROYCO 800 series lubricants extends application life by exhibiting a high-initial viscosity at cylinder operating conditions and minimal viscosity change from fluctuations in pressure, temperature or gas density. These lubricants are highly resistant to wash-off by hydrocarbon condensation often present in compressor cylinders. In addition, the ROYCO 800 series lubricants address pertinent gas compression issues, including gas dilution and reaction with gas matrix, thus enhancing the quality of processed gas. This lubricant series is completely non-reactive to additives in the gas stream making it ideal for sweet and sour gas applications.
Anderol's Polyalkyleneglycol (PAG)- based ROYCO 800 series lubricants are specifically engineered to provide high- film strength to protect against rust, scoring, wear and corrosion in hydrocarbon gas compression applications. Formulated with pour points as low as -55ºC, they provide exceptional cold-weather start-up protection for compressor cylinders, packings, gaskets, hoses, and other critical application components.
The ROYCO 800 series lubricants meet the highest standards of quality in the gas compression industry, including UOP and ISO standards.
“With increased demand for oil and gas, companies are placing a tremendous strain on operating equipment to increase production,” says Rick Barter, Senior Sales Manager-Western Canada/Ontario, Anderol, Inc. “To maximize overall equipment investment; Anderol products have proven the test of time in optimizing equipment performance, efficiency and life.”
The ROYCO® 800 series lubricants, including ROYCO® 880, 868, 886 and 889, are offered in a wide range of viscosities to meet the requirements of specific compression applications.
