Lubricants #339286

castrol engine oil were developed specifically for service in advanced numerically controlled (nc) hydraulic systems, including robotics. These high performance, multiservice oils can extend service life for uninterrupted machine availability and production. The following performance characteristics are emphasized :

• oxidation stability : to significantly extend safe oil service life and to protect tight machine clearances from varnish or deposits.
• antiwear protection : to maintain crucial tolerance characteristics of advanced hydraulic systems, and to protect gears and bearings in circulating systems.
• corrosion resistance : to give protection, exceeding normal industry standards, against damage from condensed atmospheric moisture.

• the base oils in tribol 943aw fluids are selected for chemical and thermal stability. They are also selected for the naturally high film strength necessary to prevent rupture at the highest pump pressures and tightest clearances where operating conditions usually lead to mixed or boundary (contact) lubrication. The antiwear characteristics of the 943aw fluids are achieved by a unique additive system which does not include zinc. Tribol 943aw fluids are part of castrol performance lubricants eco-solutions^{tm product offering. Formulated to address environmental concerns, tribol 943aw fluids are free of lead, zinc, chlorinated solvents, and barium. They contain less than 2 ppm of phenol. The unsurpassed oxidation stability of the 943aw fluids is a result of extensive research to stabilize petroleum oils at high operating temperatures. The balanced, total additive system in 943aw fluids also inhibits foaming, and provides an unusual degree of corrosion protection - see typical properties.}

  applications

  • hydraulics : designed for the most sophisticated hydraulic operations, robots, and other nc machines, 943aw fluids may be used in any industrial, marine, or mobile applications.
  • circulating systems : outstanding antiwear properties make tribol 943aw fluids ideal for multi-component systems including antifriction and journal bearings, and all types of gears except where manufacturers specify agma "ep" or "compounded" gear oils.
  • compressors : tribol 943aw-32 and 943aw-46 in centrifugal and flooded screw compressors can significantly extend oil service life compared with conventional petroleum compressor oils and atf fluids.

  • in fact, drain intervals approach the range of some synthetic fluids. Tribol 943aw fluids may also be used in reciprocating compressors if temperatures are not high and units are not prone to valve deposits. Tribol 943aw fluids have been approved by the usda as h2 lubricants acceptable for use where there is no possibility of food contact in official establishments operating under the federal meat and poultry products inspection program.

    advantages

    • greatly extended, trouble-free, service life of the hydraulic oil.
    • wear protection : maintain critical dimensions in robots and other nc machines; extend the service life of valves and pumps in hydraulics; protect gears and bearings in circulation systems.
    • cleanliness : minimal formation of varnish, deposits, and wear debris in any system.
    • consolidate product inventory by using multiservice 943aw fluids for hydraulic and circulating systems, and air compressors.
    • each of the foregoing factors can reduce operating costs. Reduced labor and downtime, longer parts life, and extended service life of the lubricant can also produce major savings.
