Utilizing the superior petroleum base stocks fortified with Syntholate extends the life of the Summit TM Series compared to that of conventional mineral oils and provides the following money saving benefits:

• Reduced lubricant consumption – Extended drain intervals and lower vapor pressures reduce lubricant consumption;
• Reduced maintenance -Syntholate reduces carbon and varnish formation thus extending valve life and the time interval between overhauls;
• Eliminates recompression- Syntholate keeps the valves clean and eliminates the primary cause of recompression;
• Reduced power consumption – Elimination of recompression and reduced coefficient of friction results in less power consumption per unit of compression;
• Improved safety – Higher flash points provide a greater margin of safety in air compression.

RECOMMENDED USES

Summit TM Series is recommended in portable air compressors with up to 2,000 hours of usage per year, rotary screw, rotary vane compressors, vacuum pumps and hydraulic systems. Summit TM Series products are compatible with most commonly used seal materials.

Your benefits at a glance

• Low maintenance and operating costs due to oil change intervals up to 8,000 operating hours in oil-injected screwtype compressors and up to 40,000 operating hours in turbocompressors
• Lower operating costs due to long oil filter and oil separator lifetimes
• Reduced cleaning costs due to good dirt-dissolving capacity of the ester oil component
• Good miscibility of oils, hence simpler conversion of compressors previously run with oils based on polyglycol
• Very good wear protection for steel friction bodies

As an operator of air compressors, you are interested in obtaining a compressor oil enabling longer oil change intervals as well as effective and reliable machine operation. It is especially for these requirements that we have developed the Summit Supra oils.
Besides their long oil life, Summit Supra oils offer you high oxidation stability, leading to less maintenance and lower operating costs. The oils’ low tendency to form oxidation residues in the oil cycle extends oil filter and oil separator life and provides good conditions for longer oil change intervals.
The oils contain inhibitors especially tuned to the application to additionally act against residue formation in the compressor and designed to enable good compressor efficiency. The ester
component contained helps dissolve any residues that may have formed so that the oil cycle is kept clean.
Summit Supra oils are based on an advanced additive concept offering effective wear protection for steel-steel material pairings. Summit Supra oils are also neutral towards most elastomers used in air compressors, therefore leakage is not to be expected.
Owing to the evaporation stability of the base oil, the oil vapour content in the compressed air can be considerably reduced compared to conventional mineral oils, especially in screw-type compressors. This contributes to a reduction of oil consumption and clean compressed air; gumming of pneumatic valves in the compressed air circuit can be prevented as well due to the low oil content of the Summit Supra Coolant and Supra 32 in the compressed air.

Summit Supra Coolant and Summit Supra 32 have been especially designed for oil change intervals up to 8,000 operating hours in oil-injected screw-type compressors which are prefilled by the manufacturer with polyglycol oil.

Varnasolv FG is a lubrication system cleaner designed to remove varnish and sludge in equipment used in the food & beverage industry.  The use of petroleum lubricants in rotary screw compressors, rotary vane compressors and other high temperature equipment, results in varnish and carbon formation. The varnish and carbon deposited throughout the equipment can cause many serious operational problems, resulting in excessively high maintenance costs.

Varnasolv FG is built for food grade applications and is NSF HX-1 registered. This eliminates the need to run the compressor unloaded when flushing a unit in a food processing facility. Varnasolv FG reduces the problems caused by varnish and carbon. Using Varnasolv FG eliminates the need for disassembling the equipment for cleaning.

Varnasolv FG should be added to the existing lubricant at a 10% concentration to remove and suspend varnish while the equipment is running. For maximum benefit, use Varnasolv FG before each lubricant change.

Additional applications for Varnasolv FG include cleaning hydraulic systems,  and high temperature chains. Varnasolv FG can also be used for cleaning Heat Transfer systems with temperatures up to 400°F.

How to use Varnasolv FG:
Cleaning Hydrocarbon Deposits from Equipment
Initial Clean-Out Method
Add one gallon of Varnasolv FG concentrate to each ten gallons of oil in the unit, first draining enough oil to allow adding the Varnasolv FG. Continue to run the equipment for 20 to 40 hours, allowing the treated oil to disperse and suspend the varnish. To avoid redepositing the suspended contaminants, drain the oil while warm and replace filters.  Refill with new oil.
