Performance Advantages
● Exceptional Resistance to Gas Dissolution and Washout: Maintains viscosity and lubricating performance by minimizing dilution/washout from hydrocarbon gases.
● Superior Viscosity Stability and Oil Film Retention: Ensures reliable lubrication and sealing under very high pressure operation conditions.
● Advanced Anti-Corrosion Protection: Resists corrosion caused by sour content such as hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and carbon dioxide, safeguarding compressor components.
● High Flash Point and Low Volatility: Reduces oil consumption and extends service intervals.
● High Viscosity Index: Operates effectively in extreme cold environments without additional heating requirements.
● Good Water Tolerance: Performs reliably in high water content or water-contaminated conditions.
Applications
Recommended for high-pressure reciprocating compressors handling hydrocarbon gases, carbon dioxide, and other process gases. Particularly suitable for applications involving corrosive acidic gases like H₂S and CO₂.
PWS NGL series includes viscosity grades from ISO VG 68 to VG 220. Select the appropriate grade based on the compressor equipment manufacturer's recommendations or consult TPI technical department.
