Turbine

Oil R&O

GENERAL

Ultra Turbine Oil R&O is a rust and oxidation inhibited oil and is ideally suited for the lubrication of
high pressure steam turbines, governor hydraulic systems and other industrial applications where a
lubricant with high oxidation stability is required.

Ultra Turbine Oil R&O is manufactured using refined hydro-treated base oils which are designed to
provide outstanding lubricating properties such as high oxidation stability, low volatility and elevated
flash/fire points. Ultra Turbine Oil R&O is formulated using a best-in-class additive package with a
unique “Stay-Clean Technology” designed to impart the following qualities in the finished lubricants:
 Excellent thermal stability  Advanced Filterability & Water Separation
 Unsurpassed Sludge & Varnish Control  Exceptional Demulsibility
 Outstanding oxidative stability  Low Foaming Tendency

KEY BENEFITS

The use of Ultra Turbine Oil R&O with “Stay-Clean Technology” would result in:
 Protection of bearings and other metallic parts against rust and corrosion (Oil was tested with both
distilled water and synthetic seawater and passed both tests. Also achieved the highest rating for
the copper corrosion test).
 Reduction in the formation of acidic products that can lead to corrosion.
 Reduces the formation of varnish, sludge and emulsions.
 Better oil circulation and functioning of governors and oil relays.
 Reduced loss of suction at the oil pump which is caused by entrained air with resulting loss of
lubrication of critical components).
 Long service life.

MAIN APPLICATIONS

 High-speed turbines.
 Air compressors and blowers.
 Certain hydraulic systems where an anti-wear lubricant is not required.
 High speed gearing and oil lubricated bearings requiring a high quality R &O inhibited oil e.g.
electric motor bearings.
