Section VII - Compressor Fluids
QuinSyn XP
QuinSyn XP is the factory fill for high
pressure units (defined as units over
25 psig full flow). QuinSyn XP replaces
QuinSyn HP 68 as our high pressure fluid
and is totally compatible with QuinSyn HP
68 (the fluids can be mixed together with
absolutely no problems). Aftermarket pail
and drum orders for QuinSyn HP 68 will be
filled with QuinSyn XP.
QuinSyn XP is a custom blended
polyolester (POE) fluid ideally suited for
rotary screw air compressors. QuinSyn XP
is an ISO 68 viscosity fluid with a 2,000
hour life at 00 & 25 psig full flow under
normal operating conditions and 8,000
hours as a high pressure fluid (exact fluid
life is determined by the fluid sampling
program). QuinSyn XP is the only fluid
available with Quincy’s ten-year airend
warranty (see Blue Alert #566).

Applications
QuinSyn XP is designed for applications
where the fluid is exposed to elevated
temperatures for extended periods of time.
Fluid thermostat temperature settings
can be elevated to assist in reducing
water content in the fluid in high humidity
applications. Consult Quincy’s Service
Department before making thermostat
changes.
Disposal
QuinSyn XP is considered nonhazardous
waste. Disposal of this fluid should be
done in accordance with Local, State, and
Federal regulations. Should condensate
need to be treated, Quincy’s QIOWA fluid/
water separators are required.
Fluid Analysis Program
QuinSyn XP will be analyzed similar to
QuinSyn although the primary concern is
the total acid number (TAN). Supplemental
“on site” TAN kits will be applicable to this
fluid as well as QuinSyn PG.
notiCe!
To maintain extended warranty
compliance, fluid samples of QuinSyn
XP must be sent to Quincy Compressor
®
Fluid Analysis a minimum of every
2,000 hours.
