Efficient and effective lubrication keeps the machines of industry turning.
Ultra FG—the latest Ingersoll Rand food grade lubricant—has an extended life which optimises rotary screw compressor performance by reducing the time to service components and increasing maintenance intervals.
Supplied by Compressed Air and Power Solutions (CAPS) Australia, Ultra FG lubricates moving parts, dissipates heat, resists degradation from food and chemicals, and does not react with sealing materials, plastics and elastomers.
Traditionally, food-grade lubricants can be used for approximately 1,000 hours before needing to be replaced.
Ingersoll Rand’s Ultra FG lubricant has an operational life of approximately 6,000 hours.
The extreme temperature stability of Ultra FG prevents formation of damaging abrasive deposits and when mixed with water, the lubricant does not break down into harmful components such as acids and alcohols, which can varnish components and lead to premature failure.
