" A Study of Compressor Oils " White Paper #7 |

Industrial machinery of any type is quite a large investment. Aside from the initial costs involved in purchasing and installing machinery, more time and money must be spent to keep machinery operating properly. In order to get the maximum service life out of equipment, proper lubrication is essential. The average compressor performs under very severe operating conditions. High heat and high pressure required to maintain satisfactory levels of compressed air can degrade internal compressor components and shorten any compressor's operating life. To ease the burden of operating stresses, a quality compressor oil is needed. |

When it comes to compressor oils, consumers have many different options. Many of the manufacturers of equipment market their own brand of compressor oils. Other oils are available with a variety of chemistries. These oils are designed to meet the demands of compressor operation. One problem is that not all oils meet all parameters of compressor operation. This is because unbalanced chemistries can work against each other and weaken certain performance requirements. To truly be effective at protecting a compressor from all of the stresses it faces, an oil must contain a balance of all of the right features. For example, the chart below shows that there are two oils that performed better in the 4-Ball Wear Test than AMSOIL PCI. |
|
| These oils have enhanced this wear property. But AMSOIL PCI comes out on top when overall performance in all areas of protection is considered. As is demonstrated in the Overall Performance Chart, AMSOIL PCI is the most versatile oil among the group tested, consistently performing near the top of the charts in each of the 14 comparisons, while others that do well in some tests cannot perform under different circumstances. |
|
| Another way in which AMSOIL PCI Compressor Oil outperforms the rest is in its pricing. One reason for this is that AMSOIL PCI is sold factory direct, eliminating the cost-increasing steps normally used in distributing other compressor oils. Each step in the chain of distribution raises the cost of getting the oil to consumers, which also raises the end price of the oil. |
|
| Some equipment manufacturers also have their own oils mentioned in their compressor warranties, allowing them to increase the prices charged for their "specialty" oils. AMSOIL can offer the best overall quality compressor oil and still provide the best price. |
