The generic term “lubricant” has been used instead of oil. The lubricant may be a hydrocarbon product, but most compressors now use cleaner and longer life synthetic lubricants, including diesters, polyglycols, polyalphaolefins, polyol esters, and siliconbased lubricants. These newer products are suitable for a wider range of temperatures.
In lubricant-injected rotary screw compressors, lubricants are designed to cool, seal, and lubricate moving parts for enhanced performance and longer wear. Important considerations for compressor lubricants include proper application and compatibility with downstream equipment, including piping, hoses, and seals. A lubricator may be installed near a point of- use to lubricate items such as pneumatic tools.
