Versatile Applications in IndustryBase Oil SN-500 stands out for its adaptability across numerous sectors. It is extensively used in lubricating oils, hydraulic oils, transformer oils, and a variety of industrial oil formulations. Its robust thermal stability, low water content, and excellent filterability ensure smooth machinery operation even under demanding conditions. Manufacturers and blenders trust SN-500 for its consistent quality and reliable performance.
Quality That Meets International StandardsWith a maximum acidity of 0.02 mg KOH/g and carbon residue limited to 0.05%, SN-500 meets stringent performance and safety benchmarks. Its clear, bright appearance, low ash and sulphur content, and minimal copper corrosion potential reflect advanced refining processes. These qualities contribute to reduction in equipment downtime and increase the longevity of lubricated components.
FAQs of Base Oil SN-500:
Q: How is Base Oil SN-500 typically used in industrial applications?
A: Base Oil SN-500 serves as a foundational ingredient in blending finished lubricants, including engine oils, hydraulic fluids, transformer oils, and other industrial lubricants. Its balanced properties aid in achieving desired viscosity, stability, and cleanliness standards in varied operating environments.
Q: What are the key benefits of using Base Oil SN-500 in lubricant formulations?
A: Its excellent filterability, high viscosity index (minimum 95), and low impurity levels deliver stable, long-lasting lubrication with minimal deposits. This maximizes equipment protection, reduces maintenance frequency, and supports efficient operation in both high and low-temperature settings.
Q: Where can Base Oil SN-500 be sourced in India?
A: Base Oil SN-500 is available across India through various channels, including distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers. These entities ensure timely delivery and support for industrial users throughout the country.
Q: What process ensures the high purity and consistency of SN-500 base oil?
A: SN-500 is produced via advanced refining processes that include hydrorefining and solvent extraction, which effectively reduce impurities and optimize its chemical and physical properties. This results in a clear and bright liquid with excellent performance metrics.
Q: When is it ideal to use SN-500 instead of lighter or heavier base oils?
A: SN-500 is best selected when a balance of viscosity, oxidation stability, and low carbon residue is needed, such as in medium to heavy-duty industrial applications. It offers enhanced performance in scenarios where lighter or heavier base oils may not provide the desired protection and operational efficiency.
Q: What makes Base Oil SN-500 suitable for use in transformer and hydraulic oils?
A: Its very low water and ash contents, excellent filterability, and high flash point (minimum 230C) make it particularly suited for electrical and hydraulic systems that demand clean, stable, and safe lubricants with minimal risk of deposits or system failures.
