- Excellent filterability
This highly refined straight mineral oil offers excellent filterability with all commercial filters, and performs exceptionally well with filters using Fuller’s Earth, maximizing filter change intervals. - Reduced deposit forming tendencies
Water separating characteristics help to prevent sludging in low operating
temperature conditions where condensation is a problem. Low carbon residue forming tendencies assist towards reducing deposit formation in valid applications. - Inherent oxidation stability
Natural oxidation stability resists oil degradation and oil thickening.
- Canopus® oils are highly refined paraffinic mineral oil suitable for industrial circulating systems and general purpose lubrication where straight mineral oils are acceptable.
Potential applications for Canopus® where it is acceptable to use a straight mineral oil include:
- General purpose industrial lubrication, particularly in “once-through” lubrication systems.
- Industrial circulating systems, particularly those incorporating clay filters to remove high levels of contamination.
- Light duty gear cases.
- Plain and rolling element bearings.
- Engine air cleaners.
- Machine tools.
- Process or extender oils in the rubber and plastics industries.
- Air compressors, as appropriate (not recommended for use in breathing air compressors.
- Vacuum pumps.
- Heat transfer systems.
