SPIRIT SYN CH

Synthetic Gas Compressor Lubricant

Spirit SYN CH SERIES is a synthetic-based lubricant formulated for use in hyper-compressors and natural gas re-injection applications. It features higher film strength than traditional lubricants, protects against corrosion, is fully compatible with most compressor components, and minimizes the effect of H2S concentrations in sour gas.

Spirit SYN CH SERIES contains no animal fats or saponifiable products that interfere with well-bore treatment products.

Applications

• Intended for the cylinder lubrication of hyper compressors and in natural gas re-injection applications.
• May also be used as a cylinder lubricant for reciprocating compressors processing natural gas, carbon dioxide and other gases that require chemical resistance in an ISO 200 viscosity grade.

Compatibility

• Recommended: Acetone, Alcohol, Asbestos, Butyl Dioxtol, Chlorinated Solvents, Glycol Ether, Neoprene, Epoxy Paint, Silicone Rubber, Toluene, Torlon (AMOCO), Vespal (DuPont), and Viton (DuPont).
• Questionable: Ethylene Glycol, Triethanolamine, and Water.
• Not Recommended: Gasoline, Glycerol, Heptane, Kerosene, Leather, Methanol, and Oil based paint.

Customer Benefits

• Resists wash off by hydrocarbon gases and liquids
• Resists absorption into the gas phase and carry-over of the lubricant downstream
• Minimizes dilution effects due to insolubility of the lubricant with hydrocarbons
• Higher film-strength that traditional lubricants
• Protects against corrosion
• Fully compatible with most compressor component materials, including: seals, gaskets, hoses, etc.
