AMSOIL Synthetic Compressor Oils - ISO 150, SAE 50
AMSOIL Synthetic PC Series
Compressor Oils
(ISO 150, SAE 50)
The correct manufacturer-recommended viscosity
grade of AMSOIL PC Series compressor oil is
recommended for use in rotary screw, rotary
vane, reciprocating and other compressor applications.
Compatible with PAO-, ester- and petroleum-based
compressor oils. They are not compatible with
glycol- or silicone-based compressor oils. Consult
AMSOIL for further information.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are longlife,
premium compressor lubricants based on novel,
proprietary technology. They incorporate the highest
quality, thermally-stable PAO synthetics fortified with
premium non-detergent, ashless additives for maximum
protection at high temperatures and pressures. They
last up to eight times longer than petroleum oils, effectively
reducing maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.
Improves Compressor Efficiency
AMSOIL PC Synthetic Compressor Oils have low friction
properties and resist viscosity increase from oxidation.
They help improve operating efficiency and save
money on electrical energy consumption.
Control Foam and Reduces Wear
AMSOIL PC Compressor Oils contain anti-foam additives
and, unlike other compressor oils, they are anti-wear
fortified. Good foam control reduces heat, oxidation and
wear. High contact regions are protected against wear for
increased compressor life and efficiency.
Resist Water Contamination
Water from condensation builds up in compressors that
can cause unwanted oil/water emulsions, environmental
discharge hazards and rust. AMSOIL PC Synthetic
Compressor Oils are hydrolytically stable. They resist acid
formation, readily separate from water and are anti-rust
fortified. Water can be easily drained off for simplified
environmental discharge and increased oil life.
Resist Heat and Oxidation
AMSOIL PC Series Compressor Oils combine the inherent
stability of premium synthetic base oils with specialized
anti-oxidant additives to resist varnish, carbon
and acid formation. They are formulated to protect compressors better
and last longer in service than petroleum oils, especially
during hot operating conditions.
Safety Advantage
AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oils are ashless,
high flash point formulations with very low carbonforming
tendencies that minimize the incidence of
ignition-promoting “hot spots.” While PC Synthetic
Compressor Oils can provide improved fire safety, they
cannot be considered non-flammable.
APPLICATION RECOMMENDATION
The appropriate viscosity of AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic
Compressor Oil is recommended for use in single and multistage
rotary screw, vane, centrifugal and reciprocating
compressor crankcase and cylinders, vacuum pumps
and other applications such as gears, bearings, blowers,
pumps and handheld pneumatic tools. In compressor
applications, drain intervals of 8,000 hours or more can be
expected under normal operation. Drain intervals are subject
to operating conditions and maintenance practices.
Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended. For best performance,
AMSOIL recommends the compressor be
drained prior to the installation of PC Synthetic Compressor
Oil. If carbon deposits are present on the internal components,
it is recommended they be removed following the
compressor manufacturer recommendations.
