Lubricant
Your compressor has been filled and tested with CAS RS8000, a high
quality compressor lubricant. It is a PAO with the advantage of extended
service life, high temperature operation, easy start-up when cold, reduced
sludge and lacquer buildup, and is completely compatible with all seals,
gaskets, and other compressor materials.
Oil Analysis
Oil analysis is an excellent tool
to add to your compressor
maintenance program. At regular
intervals you submit lubricant
samples to a qualified
laboratory. From this you receive
a detailed report showing the
lubricant condition, wear metals,
and contaminants. Changes in this
information over time provides the
basis for predictive compressor
maintenance. Saving you unplanned
machine downtime and unnecessary
oil changes.

service your lubricant must meet the following specification:
