Capella® WF: Refrigeration Oil for Compressors

Refrigeration Compressor Oil

Capella® WF Refrigeration Oil

Capella® WF is a high quality, essentially wax-free oil for the lubrication of refrigeration and airconditioning compressors when refrigerants other than HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) are used. Made from special, narrowcut naphthenic base oils with an extremely low pour point and Freon Floc point.

Suitable Applications
  • Reduced downtime
    Very low pour point and Freon Floc point prevent loss of fluidity or formation of wax deposits, ensuring efficient evaporator operation, and cleanliness of equipment lines and refrigerant control devices. Excellent lubricity guards against wear of compressor components.
  • Prolonged compressor and seal life
    Excellent thermal stability minimizes the formation of gum, varnish and sludge deposits.
  • Prolonged oil service life
    Excellent oxidation resistance reduces oil thickening and deposit formation, ensuring extended oil change intervals.
  • Capella® WF is a high quality, essentially wax-free oil for the lubrication of refrigeration and airconditioning compressors when refrigerants other than HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) are used. Made from special, narrowcut naphthenic base oils with an extremely low pour point and Freon Floc point.

Can include:

  • Reciprocating and rotary refrigeration compressors
  • Air conditioning systems
  • Refrigeration systems using chlorofluoro-carbons (CFCs)

For systems containing HFC refrigerants such as HFC 134a, Texaco Capella HFC is recommended.

For large ammonia refrigeration systems, Chevron Capella P or Caltex Capella A may provide superior performance.

Capella WF is not recommended for use in breathing air compressors.
