FAQs
What does ISO32 mean?
ISO32 refers to the viscosity grade of the oil according to the International Organization for Standardization. It indicates the oil's resistance to flow at a specific temperature, suitable for a defined range of operating conditions and compressor types.
Can I mix SILVERHOOK Compressor Oil ISO32 with other brands?
It is generally not recommended to mix different brands or types of compressor oils, as it can alter their performance characteristics and potentially lead to system damage. For best results, use only SILVERHOOK Compressor Oil ISO32.
How often should I change the compressor oil?
The frequency of oil changes depends on the compressor type, operating conditions, and manufacturer recommendations. Consult your compressor's manual for the specific service interval.
Is this oil suitable for oil-free compressors?
No, SILVERHOOK Compressor Oil ISO32 is designed for lubricated compressors and hydraulic systems. It is not intended for use in oil-free compressor designs.
What is the shelf life of this oil?
When stored correctly in a sealed container in a cool, dry place, compressor oil typically has a shelf life of several years. However, always refer to the product packaging for any specific expiry information.
Where can I find the oil level indicator on my compressor?
The location of the oil level indicator (often a sight glass or a dipstick) varies by compressor model. Please refer to your compressor's user manual for its specific location and instructions on checking the oil level.
Troubleshooting
Oil level appears low
Check for leaks in the compressor system. Top up the oil to the correct level using SILVERHOOK Compressor Oil ISO32, ensuring not to overfill.
Compressor is running hotter than usual
Verify the oil level is correct. Ensure the oil is the specified ISO32 grade and has not become contaminated or degraded. Consider an oil change if it's due.
Visible foam in the oil sight glass
Excessive foaming can indicate moisture contamination or that the wrong type of oil is being used. Ensure the system is sealed and drain/refill with the correct SILVERHOOK Compressor Oil ISO32 if contamination is suspected.
