Chevron 219402 Cetus® PAO 46, 68 Compressor Oil
Technical Specification
- Make: Chevron
- Model code: 219402
- Type: Compressor oil
- Base Oil: Polyalphaolefin PAO
- Viscosity at 40°C: 68 mm2/s
Cetus® PAO oils are synthetic compressor lubricants formulated with the highest-quality polyalphaolefin PAO base fluid. The PAO base fluid provides thermal and oxidation stability, high viscosity index, low pour point and good hydrolytic stability. A high-performance additive package further enhances these qualities. The products are designed to meet the requirements of compact, high output rotary air compressors where mineral products are not effective any longer and make an ideal choice for large diesel engine turbocharger applications as well.
