CASTROL AIRCOL CM 150
CASTROL AIRCOL CM 150 - The Ultimate Compressor Lubricant
Castrol’s Aircol™ CM range is designed as a comprehensive solution for oil-injection and oil-flooded reciprocating and rotary screw air compressors. Made from a base of refined mineral oil, these products are upgraded with additives to improve thermal and oxidative stability, enabling reliable performance at high temperatures. With enhanced load-carrying capacity, Aircol CM products are perfectly suited to heavy duty applications.
Aircol CM 150 is ideal for lubricating the crankcase and cylinders of reciprocating air compressors, including at high ambient temperatures. It is also recommended for sliding-vane air compressors. The additives in Aircol CM 150 do not contain zinc, which helps to prevent the buildup of deposits and debris inside metal components. This property is complemented by low carbon-forming tendencies, meaning that air compressors stay clean and in good working order.
Technical specifications
Castrol Aircol CM 150 meets the following industry standards:
- DIN 51506 VD-L, Air compressor oil specification for reciprocating air compressors having air discharge temperatures up to 220°C.
- ISO 6743-3A-DAJ, Air compressor oil specification.
By choosing a product that meets these standards, you can maintain compliance and ensure your lubricant will deliver the standards of performance you need.
Castrol Aircol CM 150 is a diester-based compressor lubricant that is designed for use in both rotary screw and reciprocating air compressors. With a long lifespan that is designed to extend drain intervals and minimise oil changes, it can deliver savings in both maintenance time and costs.
Like the other products in the Aircol CM range, Aircol CM 150 is designed to deliver excellent performance at high operating temperatures and loadings, thanks to its thermal and oxidative stability and its enhanced load-carrying ability. It offers specific performance benefits under these conditions that can result in reduced wear, lower maintenance requirements and cost savings.
