Ester-based synthetic lubricants can deliver greater performance stability, longer service life and improved energy efficiency* in air compressor applications – particularly under high thermal and oxidative loads.
But what does this actually mean for you in practice?
✅ Greater thermal and oxidative stability
Can slow down oil ageing and reduce the formation of deposits compared with conventional mineral oils.*
✅ Improved lubricity due to its polar structure
Ester molecules can adhere more effectively to metal surfaces, which may help to reduce wear under certain conditions.*
✅ Potential for extending maintenance intervals
Thanks to greater oxidation stability, longer oil service life can be achieved – depending on the application.*
✅ Cleaner systems in operation
The chemical structure of esters makes it possible to prevent or minimise deposits on internal components, as they are able to transport oxidising material through the entire system directly to the filter.*
Guidance for your practice:
The actual benefit depends on the application, operating conditions and the specific formulation of the lubricant.
* Comparison with mineral oils under typical operating conditions and with a suitable formulation. Results may vary depending on the application, load profile and system.
