Shell Clavus Oil 46 / 68

Shell Clavus Oil

Outstanding Low Temperature Performance - Shell Clavus 68 will not produce any wax deposits which would plug the refrigeration system and impair its efficiency.• Resistant to Deposit Formation - Compressors which are lubricated with Shell Clavus 68 will not suffer from valve deposits and dirty parts which can arise when oils not designed for refrigeration service are used.
Excellent Chemical Stability and Compatibility - Shell Clavus 68 can be used in association with any of the normal refrigeration gases, e.g., Ammonia, Freon 12, Freon 22, etc. (Shell Clavus 68 is not recommended for use with HFC refrigerant gases such as R-134a and R-23)
Shell Clavus 68 PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
has been subjected to very special processing designed to produce stable, wax free, oils. It will not react with CFC and Ammonia refrigerant gases, floc at normal refrigeration temperature or oxidize at higher temperatures. It meets or exceeds the requirements of most compressor builders. No special precautions beyond those normally deployed in handling high quality petroleum oils are necessary, but because of the nature of the application in which they are used, it is important that exposure to water vapour and any other airborne contaminants be avoided.
