AMSOIL SIROCCO™ Synthetic
Compressor Oil

SIROCCO™ Synthetic
Compressor Oil ISO 32/46
(SEI)
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil (SEI) is recommended
as a direct replacement for PAG compressor oils such as Sullair
Sullube 32® and Ingersoll-Rand SSR Ultra-coolant®. Not
recommended for use with Silicone base fluids.
Package sizes include:
5-Gallon
Pail
55-Gallon Drum
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil (SEI) is formulated
with premium synthetic ester technology. This high-quality,
long-life fluid lasts several times longer in use than
mineral-based oils. AMSOIL SIROCCO® Compressor Oil is fully
formulated with nondetergent additives and is designed for use
in rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps. SIROCCO®
effectively protects against wear, oxidation, foam and rust and
has inherent lubricity and good thermal conductivity which
allow it to reduce heat and energy consumption. AMSOIL SIROCCO®
Compressor Oil increases operating efficiency, reducing money
spent on energy, repair and maintenance costs.
AMSOIL SIROCCO® Synthetic Compressor Oil
maintains performance across a wide operating temperature
range. Its low pour point, high viscosity index and lack of
paraffins (wax) makes it an excellent all season lubricant.
At high temperatures, SIROCCO® forms virtually no carbon,
allowing for clean operation. At cold temperatures,
equipment starts easier and the lubricant is quickly pumped
to critical components, preventing lubricant starvation and
excessive wear. SIROCCO® Compressor Oil also resists water
to prevent damaging oil/water emulsions, allowing for longer
lubricant life and ease of water removal from the sump.

- SEI is biodegradable under the CEC-L33-A94
standard
SAFETY
ADVANTAGE AMSOIL SE Series Synthetic Ester
Compressor Oils/Coolants have higher flash, fire and auto
ignition points than competitive petroleum oils. Their
resistance to carbon formation and the ashless additive system
minimize the incidence of deposits acting as ignition-promoting
hot spots. Although AMSOIL SE Series increase fire safety, they
cannot be considered non-flammable.
APPLICATION
RECOMMENDATION AMSOIL SEI is a
multi-viscosity oil meeting the requirements of 5W-20. It may
be used in applications calling for either an ISO-32 or ISO-46
compressor oil or coolant. It is recommended for use in single
and multi-stage rotary screw compressors and vacuum pumps that
call for this viscosity.
When installing AMSOIL SEI, it is recommended that the old
oil be thoroughly drained and if warranted, the system cleaned.
If a lot of carbon or residue is found on the internal
compressor parts, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for
removal prior to installing the new oil. AMSOIL SE Series
Synthetic Ester Compressor Oils/Coolants have a high level of
solvency and may remove deposits left in the system. Check the
filters and oil/air separators regularly for the first 500
hours of operation and replace as necessary.
AMSOIL SEI is compatible with and recommended as a
replacement for much higher priced polyalkylene glycol (PAG)
compressor oils or coolants such as Sullube 32® and Ingersoll
Rand SSR Ultra Coolant®. No flushing is necessary when changing
over from Glycol Coolants to AMSOIL SEI. However, draining the
system and changing the filters is recommended.
AMSOIL SEI is recommended for use up to 8,000+ hours for
most compressor applications. However, this is subject to
operating conditions and maintenance practices.* Monitoring by
oil analysis every 1,000 hours is recommended.
* Where discharge temperature exceeds 205°F, lubricant life
expectancy is reduced.
COMPATIBILITY AMSOIL SEI is
compatible with petroleum oils, most synthetic oils*, and many
seals, paints and materials commonly used in compressors.
Materials recommended and not recommended for use with SEI
oils/coolants are listed below. For additional information, see
the AMSOIL Compatibility Guide (G-1274) or consult your AMSOIL
Dealer or AMSOIL INC.
*AMSOIL SE Series is NOT RECOMMENDED as a replacement or for
use with the silicone based compressor oil Sullube 24KT®.
AMSOIL SE Series is NOT RECOMMENDED for use in "Breathing Air
or Refrigeration" compressors.
