Replacing Lubricants in CFC & HCFC Systems

At some point, the phase out of CFC and HCFC refrigerants will require the need to replace or retrofit your existing lubricant within your compressor system.  Existing mineral oil lubricants are not miscible with HFC refrigerants, thus causing problems within the operating system.  CPI has formulated Solest® to be compatible with HFC refrigerants.  In addition, we have developed a procedure for properly retrofitting new lubricant options within existing mineral oil-based systems.  It is critical to remove as much of the mineral oil as possible, to eliminate issues with fouling and evaporator coating.  Our team has field-tested experience in assisting customers in these retrofitting situations.
