www . machinerylubrication.com | January - February 2020 | 27 COMPRESSOR LUBRICANT e new Planetelf PAG K40 from Total is a polyalkylene-glycol (PAG) lubricant for car air-conditioning compres- sors. It is designed to meet the requirements of both refrigerant gases (R134a and HFO-1234yf ) commonly present in the automotive air-conditioning industry while providing optimized performance regardless of temperature. Along with thermal and chemical stability and anti-foaming properties, the synthetic lubricant is intended to help protect compressor parts and seals against wear and maintain its lubricity despite a drop in viscosity caused by the mixing of refrigerant in the oil. Total Specialties USA www.totalspecialties.com 800-323-3198 BEARING GREASE Klüber's new Klübersynth BZ 68-400 cleaning grease is specifically formu- lated to remove residue and optimize bearing grease changeovers in wind turbine applications. Besides its cleaning effects, the grease offers protection against wear and corrosion. is also protects the rolling bearings during the cleaning process. In addi- tion, the grease is designed to extend the service lives of rolling bearings and reduce maintenance and down- time. Although primarily developed for applications in wind turbines, Klüber- synth BZ 68-400 can also be used for cleaning rolling bearings in other industries as well. Kluber Lubrication www.klueber.com 603-647-4104 FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER e new All Engine Clean Intake Cleaner from Valvoline is engi- neered to remove hard-to-reach deposits in port fuel-injected engines and to attack carbon buildup in modern engines, including those with gasoline direct injection (GDI). e intake cleaning process circulates a mist into the air stream to prevent puddling and diminish engine deposits while producing low smoke and low odor. Not sourced directly from petroleum-based products and containing no known carcinogens, the intake cleaner is also lower in toxicity for the technician, the engine and the environment. Valvoline www.Valvoline.com 859-357-7777 5 6 8 SYNTHETIC FLUSHING FLUID Ultrachem's new Omniflush FG is a synthetic flushing fluid designed to remove varnish and sludge from compressors used in food, beverage and pharmaceu- tical processing plants. It can be employed as an intermediary step when transitioning from standard (H-2) lubricants to food-grade (H-1) approved technologies, as well as when converting from food-grade (H-1) lubricants to advanced synthetics. e fluid offers a high flash point with good demulsibility and incorporates additives so it can be used as a lubricant for up to 500 hours. However, it does not contain any aromatic solvents or hazardous ingredients. Ultrachem www.ultracheminc.com 302-325-9880 7 ML 5 6 7 8
