3. Features & Benefits
-
Excellent Water Separation (Demulsibility): Rapid separation of ingressed water prevents emulsion formation and the loss of lubricity in sensitive bearings.
-
Anti-Wear & Anti-Rust Protection: The specialized R&O additive package protects bearings and gears from corrosion and wear.
-
Outstanding Oxidation Stability (TOST > 5000 hrs): Resistance to chemical degradation at high temperatures extends oil life to tens of thousands of hours.
-
Control System Compatibility: Consistent viscosity and fast response in hydraulic control circuits for turbine valves.
4. Industrial Applications
-
Thermal & Gas Power Plants: Lubrication and cooling of steam and gas turbine bearings.
-
Combined-Cycle Power Plants: Used in both gas turbines and steam generators.
-
Turbo-Compressors: Lubrication of large industrial air compressors.
-
Industrial Hydraulic Systems: A hydraulic fluid for precision presses and machinery.
5. Safety & Handling
-
MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet): Prolonged skin contact may cause irritation. Hot oil poses a burn hazard. The Arnico MSDS file must be obtained.
-
Storage Conditions: Store in clean, dry tanks, away from moisture, dust, and high heat. Contamination with water, grease, and engine oils must be strictly avoided.
-
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): When handling, the use of oil-resistant gloves and safety goggles is recommended.
6. Quality Assurance & COA
Arnico Turbine Oil T shipments are supplied with a complete Certificate of Analysis (COA) in accordance with ISO 8068 and DIN 51515 standards.
