Reliable oils possess high tludity at very low temperatures, resist deposit formation and have reduced tendency to foam. These oils have long service life due to good oxidation and thermal stability and ensure high condenser efficiency and reduced compressor valve maintenance due to less deposits. These oils meet IS: 4578-1989 specifications.
Reliable oils are recommended for a wide range of refrigeration compressors using all conventional refrigerants except sulphurdioxide and are suitable for both reciprocating as well as rotary compressors. These oils can be used in properly designed and well-maintained refrigeration systems operating above the pour point of the oil.
Reliable oils are fortified with an additive to meet very low pour point requirements.
