Development of a POE lubricant for rotary compressors using HFC refrigerants.

Author(s) : LI H., LILJE K. C.

Summary

The paper describes efforts to develop a polyolester (POE) lubricant suitable for use in rotary vane compressors of current design/materials. Viscosity, additive effect, stability and deposit forming tendency were evaluated. Bench test data as well as actual compressor test results are reported. A properly formulated POE was found that gives equal or better wear performance compared with R22/mineral oil.
