CPI Fluid Engineering is a leading global supplier of synthetic lubricants to the air conditioning and refrigeration industry.
With decades of experience engineering fluid solutions for complex compression and heat transfer applications, their products have a use at virtually every stage in food processing, cold chain storage and transportation, and cover many different system requirements and compressor types.
Refrigeration compressor oils are synthetic polyol ester lubricants designed to offer effective protection for steel and aluminium surfaces against wear and tear, ensuring a lasting service life and maximum system efficiency.
It is important to check each compressor system design to identify which type of lubricant is needed to mix with the refrigerant. If HFC (comprised of hydrogen, fluorine and carbon) refrigerants are utilised, old style mineral oil lubricants won’t work.
