HYCOM LS 220 is a premium low-sulphur, high-viscosity compressor oil formulated for use in synthesis gas (syn gas) compressors operating under high-pressure and continuous-duty conditions. It provides excellent lubrication and film strength, ensuring effective protection for compressor components such as pistons, valves, and cylinder liners. The formulation is designed to resist oxidation and thermal degradation, preventing carbon and varnish formation even during extended operations. With a sulphur content below 0.25% by weight, HYCOM LS 220 minimizes the risk of catalyst poisoning, making it ideally suited for use in fertilizer, petrochemical, and syn gas generation plants. It is compatible with equipment from major compressor manufacturers like Cooper Bessemer and Nuovo Pignone, ensuring smooth operation, reduced maintenance, and prolonged equipment life.
