PETRONAS FRIGOR

Challenges in protecting compressors operating under high-temperature and pressure conditions

Compressors today work at ultra-high temperatures for long periods of time, putting them (literally) under pressure. With the advent of new, more demanding equipment specifications, and with potential contaminants intermingling with oil, protecting the equipment presents a number of challenges.

Your key to maximizing performance

We’ve developed a comprehensive portfolio of refrigeration compressor oils.
Choose the right product for your application.
