Features

Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC is a synthetic compressor lubricant. It is formulated to meet the demands of reciprocating compressors for gases other than air.

It is formulated with the highest quality polyalphaolefin (PAO) base fluids. PAO has inherent properties, such as excellent thermal and oxidative stability, high viscosity index, high flash and fire points, natural friction reducing ability, and excellent low temperature fluidity, which make Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC especially well suited for the lubrication of compressor cylinders.

The ashless nature of Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC makes it nonpoisonous to catalysts. The purity and thermal stability of this lubricant will substantially reduce the formation of sludge, deposits and sticky residues on compressor discharge valves, piping, and aftercooler tubing.

Applications

Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC is designed to meet the needs of cylinder lubrication in reciprocating compressors for inert gases (e.g. nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, etc.) or for hydrocarbon gases (e.g. ethylene, propylene, propane, butane, etc.).

The synthetic properties of Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC reduce the problems associated with dilution by liquid hydrocarbons and by gas absorption at high pressures.

Chevron Tegra Synthetic Compressor Oil HC meets U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements, 21 CFR 178.3570, and is suitable for lubrication of ethylene and propylene compressors involved in the manufacture of polymeric food packaging.
