PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil (SEI) is formulated
with premium synthetic ester technology. This high-quality,
long-life fluid lasts several times longer in use than
mineral-based oils. AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil is fully
formulated with nondetergent additives and is designed for use in
rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps. SIROCCO®
effectively protects against wear, oxidation, foam and rust and
has inherent lubricity and good thermal conductivity which allow
it to reduce heat and energy consumption. AMSOIL SIROCCO®
Compressor Oil increases operating efficiency, reducing money
spent on energy, repair and maintenance costs.
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic
Compressor Oil maintains performance across a wide operating
temperature range. Its low pour point, high viscosity index and
lack of paraffins (wax) makes it an excellent all season
lubricant. At high temperatures, SIROCCO® forms virtually no
carbon, allowing for clean operation. At cold temperatures,
equipment starts easier and the lubricant is quickly pumped to
critical components, preventing lubricant starvation and
excessive wear. SIROCCO® Compressor Oil also resists water to
prevent damaging oil/water emulsions, allowing for longer
lubricant life and ease of water removal from the sump.
PERFORMANCE
FEATURES
• Resists foaming
• Rust and oxidation inhibited
• Readily separates from water
• Recommended for use in rotary screw compressors
• Long-life/extended drain performance.
• Compatible with polyglycol fluids such as Sullair Sullube
32® and Ingersoll-Rand SSR Ultra-coolant®
• Biodegradable under the CEC-L33-A94 standard safety
advantage
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic
Ester Compressor Oil has higher flash, fire and auto ignition
points than competitive petroleum oils. Its resistance to carbon
formation and the ashless additive system minimize the incidence
of deposits acting as ignition-promoting hot spots. Although
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil increases fire
safety, it cannot be considered nonflammable.
APPLICATION
RECOMMENDATION
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil is a multi-viscosity
oil meeting the requirements of 5W-20. It may be used in
applications calling for either an ISO-32 or ISO-46 compressor
oil or coolant. It is recommended for use in single and
multi-stage rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps that call
for this viscosity.
When installing AMSOIL
SIROCCO® Compressor Oil, it is recommended that the old oil
be thoroughly drained and if warranted, the system cleaned. If a
lot of carbon or residue is found on the internal compressor
parts, follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for
removal prior to installing the new oil. AMSOIL SIROCCO®
Compressor Oil has a high level of solvency and may remove
deposits left in the system. Check the filters and oil/air
separators regularly for the first 500 hours of operation and
replace as necessary.
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil
is compatible with and recommended as a replacement for much
higher priced polyalkylene glycol (PAG) compressor oils or
coolants such as Sullair Sullube 32® and Ingersoll Rand SSR
Ultra Coolant®. No flushing is necessary when changing over
from Glycol Coolants to AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil.
However, draining the system and changing the filters is
recommended.
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic
Compressor Oil is recommended for use up to 8,000+ hours for most
compressor applications. However, this is subject to operating
conditions and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis
every 1,000 hours is recommended.
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil is compatible with petroleum
oils, most synthetic oils*, and many seals, paints and materials
commonly used in compressors. Materials recommended and not
recommended for use with SIROCCO® Compressor Oil are listed
below.
*AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil is NOT
RECOMMENDED as a replacement for or for use with the
silicone-based compressor oil Sullair Sullube 24KT®. AMSOIL
SIROCCO® is NOT RECOMMENDED for use in“Breathing Air or
Refrigeration” compressors.
