Refrigerant Oil: Service Precautions
Compressor Oil
Oil Specification
-
The HFC-134a system requires a synthetic (PAG) compressor oil whereas the R-12 system requires a mineral compressor oil. The two oils must
never be mixed.
-
Compressor (PAG) oil varies according to compressor model. Be sure to use oil specified for the model of compressor.
-
Always use HFC-134a Vane Rotary Type Compressor Oil (AIPDN Part No. 2-90188-301-0)
Handling of Oil
-
The oil should be free from moisture, dust, metal powder, etc.
-
Do not mix with other oil.
-
The water content in the oil increases when exposed to the air. After use, seal oil from air immediately. (HFC-134a Vane Rotary Compressor Oil
absorbs moisture very easily.)
-
The compressor oil must be stored in steel containers, not in plastic containers.
