Seminar contents at a glance
The seminar provided practical knowledge on the selection and use of lubricating oils for blowers and compressors. The focus was on various types of base oils, their advantages and disadvantages, and sustainability considerations. In addition, the presentation explained how lubricating oils age during operation and what impact contaminants, oil mixing, and gases have. Other topics included the specific requirements of screw compressors with oil-injection cooling and the applications of RKR lubricating oils. Real-world examples demonstrated how laboratory analyses and online sensors help monitor oil condition. A concluding discussion provided an opportunity for questions and professional exchange.
