Premature seal failures due to degradation of barrier fluids and formation of deposits on seal faces is a time-consuming issue for maintenance managers of rotating equipment.
Therefore, Klüberfluid M 4 oils is a fully synthetic hydrocarbon oil with high viscosity index allowing the fluid to be exposed to a wide temperature range. Klüberfluid M 4 oils can be used in refineries, petrochemicals & chemical factories, offshore oil & gas facilities, power plants and food & pharmaceutical plants on elastomer/mechanical seals.
Excellent heat transfer properties efficiently remove the heat at the seal faces avoiding carbon blistering, which makes the oils the best choice for applications with frequent start-stop operation.
Klüberfluid M 4 oils satisfy all relevant criteria for barrier fluid selection:
- compatible with other synthetic barrier fluids
- excellent low-temperature fluidity
- high temperature and chemical stability
- high oxidation resistance
- efficiently transfer heat, keeping the seal faces cool
- not listed as a VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) or VHAP (Volatile Hazardous Air Pollutants)
