Key Features
-
Optimal Viscosity Grade: ISO VG 46 provides a balance of low-temperature flowability and high-temperature film strength for effective lubrication.
-
Excellent Miscibility: Engineered for outstanding miscibility and solubility with HFCs, which is critical for efficient oil return to the compressor from the heat exchangers, preventing oil-logging and maintaining system efficiency.
-
Superior Wear Protection: Provides effective wear protection for all metal surfaces (steel and aluminum), prolonging the life of the compressor.
-
High Purity: Characterized by very low acid value and low water content, ensuring long-term chemical stability and protection against corrosion and system breakdown.
-
Low-Temperature Flow: The very low pour point ensures the oil remains fluid and can circulate freely, even in cold evaporator environments.
-
OEM-Approved: The RL series, including RL46H, is highly OEM-approved and recommended for both initial factory fill and service/retrofit applications.
-
Retrofit Capability: Compatible with residual mineral or alkylbenzene oils remaining in systems being retrofitted from CFC/HCFC to HFC refrigerants (though thorough clean-out is always recommended).
