Klüber Summit SH 68
Klüber Summit SH 68 is a synthetic air compressor oil based on synthetic hydrocarbons and additives. It is designed for oil-injected screw-type compressors and can provide oil change intervals of up to 10,000 operating hours under suitable operating conditions.
Product Description
Klüber Summit SH 68 is a synthetic air compressor oil based on a synthetic hydrocarbon blend with a special additive package. It is formulated for demanding compressor applications and is suitable for oil-injected screw-type compressors.
The oil offers low evaporation tendency, good oxidation stability and excellent water demulsibility. Under suitable operating conditions, oil change intervals of up to 10,000 operating hours can be achieved, helping reduce maintenance and operating costs.
Klüber Summit SH oils can be mixed with mineral oils and synthetic hydrocarbon oils, but are not miscible with polyglycol-based oils. The formulation also supports long service life of oil filters, activated carbon filters and oil separators.
Appearance – clear. Colour – colourless. Article number – 050006. ISO viscosity grade – 68. Packaging – 20 LTR canister.
Applications
- Oil-injected rotary screw compressors
- Rotary vane compressors
- Reciprocating compressors
- Centrifugal compressor applications where the specified viscosity is suitable
- Industrial compressed-air systems requiring extended oil service intervals
- Compressor systems operating under demanding industrial conditions
Key Features & Benefits
