Industrial Air Supplies offers a free oil analysis program to all of our customers who purchase IAS synthetic oil/Lubricants. The oil analysis program is designed to give a complete overall view of the physical and chemical characteristics of the lubricant to determine any significant lubricant deterioration as well as detect any machinery problems before they become serious and expensive to repair. Oil Life Regardless of test results, it is important to change out oil on a regular basis, as indicated in our "Compressor Oil Service Life" technical bulletin. Please call for a copy. It is best to keep the compressor as cool as possible to allow for optimum oil change intervals. High heat will reduce the time available between oil change intervals for both petroleum and synthetic oils. Temperature Often the subject of how long compressor oil will last at a particular temperature is asked. This depends on several factors, including application, cleanliness of air, base fluid of the oil, ect. We have predicted operating life of various compressor oils based on good operating conditions in our literature. Generally, they are: 1) 2000 hours for food grade USDA- H-1 PAO oils 2) 8000 hours for PAO 3) 8000 hours for diester oils 4) 8000 hours for polyglycol/ester base oils As temperatures increase, the oil life is drastically decreased, especially above 210 F. |
