The two new PR-OLEO products are targeted for specific compressor types and applications. The first, PR-OLEO C-PAO68-FG, is a fully synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) oil suitable for cryogenic screw compressors operating at temperatures as low as -50°C. The second oil, PR-OLEO C-MH100A-FG, is another hydrotreated mineral oil with higher viscosity suitable for heat pump reciprocating compressors, including refrigeration compressors with additional heat pump.
Already in 2017, GEA, as one of the leading innovation experts in the development of environmentally friendly, economical cooling and heating solutions, launched the first PR-OLEO ammonia oil products. These were the PR-OLEO® products C-MH68A and C-MH68-FG. Both are hydrogenated mineral oils suitable for a very wide range of screw and piston compressor applications.
Now, after several years of faultless operation in many different applications worldwide, GEA has used the same technical know-how to introduce the new range of PR-OLEO products and offer the market a wider choice of oils.
