Agip DICREA 150

Description

1. Agip DICREA 150

Agip DICREA 150 is a durable, synthetic-grade compressor oil formulated from polyglycol base oil to deliver outstanding performance in high-temperature air and gas compression systems. Designed to prevent carbon deposit, ring sticking, and valve clogging, it’s the specific use lubricant that solves issues common in natural gas, LPG, ammonia, and chlorine-fluorine compressors. Trusted in manufacturing and petrochemical plants, it offers quality material resilience where ordinary oils fail.

2. Performance of Agip DICREA 150

In real-world and lab tests, DICREA 150:

• Thermally stable at discharge temperatures > 200 °C, forming no sludge or carbon

• Resistant to oxidation, decomposing only to simple volatiles, passing ROCOT and DIN 51352 oxidation tests

• Anti-wear grade, passing FZG stage 9, ensuring durability in rotary compressors

• Corrosion-resistant, clears ASTM D 665 rust tests, safeguarding internal parts

• Seal-compatible, suitable with both natural and synthetic rubbers .

Compatibility with other lubricants:

Better used alone, but compatible with similar ISO-L-DAG synthetic compressor oils. Avoid mixing with dissimilar fluids.

3. Features of Agip DICREA 150

• Polyglycol synthetic base: high viscosity index and thermal resilience

• Excellent moisture tolerance: maintains lubrication even with humidity

• Oxidation-resistant: prevents deposits at high temperatures

• Low carbon residue: prevents valve and ring sticking

• Metal and seal friendly: safe for steel, aluminum, rubber, and gasket materials
