New Synthetic Barrier Fluid: Klüberfluid M 4 oils

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)

Benefits for your application

  • Provide long fluid life in double mechanical seals operating under extreme conditions through exceptional thermal and oxidation stability
  • Outstanding heat transfer properties, able to flow in very cold ambient temperature applications
  • Prevent blistering of carbon seal faces and seal failures through efficient heat transfer and low coefficient of friction
  • Prolonged seal life due to synthetic oils formulated from sulfur and metal free compounds
