FIGURE 4-2 – SYNTHETIC LUBRICANT CHART
If not using AEON PD synthetic blower lubricant, use turbine quality oils with rust and oxidation inhibitors,
anti-foam additives and viscosities listed in FIGURE 4-3. Do not use oil that contains EP additives.

FIGURE 4-3 – NON-SYNTHETIC LUBRICANT CHART
*
For ambient temperatures less than 10° F, but not less than -20° F, the use of sump heaters,
heated enclosures or synthetic lubricant is required.
**
For ambient temperatures 10° F to 32° F, the use of oil sump heaters, heated enclosures or
synthetic lubricant is recommended.
***
The lubricant viscosity must be 70 SUS minimum at the lubricant operating temperature.
The pour point of the lubricant should be at least 5° to 10° F below the minimum expected
ambient temperature.
For continuous operation, where the lubricant temperature exceeds 200° F, synthetic lubricant
is recommended.
