Mobil SHC PM Series

Paper Machine Lubricants

Product Description

Mobil SHC PM Series products are supreme performance synthetic lubricants specifically designed for the most demanding industrial paper machine circulating systems. They are engineered to provide exceptional lubrication characteristics not attainable with conventional premium mineral oil-based fluids. The Mobil SHC PM Series oils are formulated to provide maximum protection of gears and bearings operating under the most severe conditions. They have very low pour points and a naturally high viscosity index (VI) which helps ensure good low temperature start-up while maintaining excellent viscosity characteristics at very high temperatures. The fluids are very shear stable and maintain viscosity control even when subjected to severe mechanical shear in heavily loaded bearings and gears. Their low traction coefficient and high viscosity index can help result in lower energy consumption and reduced component operating temperatures.

Mobil SHC PM Series oils are formulated with synthesised hydrocarbon fluid (SHF) base oil technology and a proprietary additive system carefully balanced to attain high performance standards These fluids permit the use of higher steam pressures, temperatures and machine speeds common in high output paper machines and calendar rolls. Their outstanding hydrolytic stability and filterability assure excellent performance in the presence of water and the ability to retain effective filtration even at very fine filtration levels. They readily separate water and retain their colour characteristics for extended periods of operation under severe conditions.

Features and Benefits

The Mobil SHC PM Series oils represent a technological advance in paper machine lubrication. Their excellent performance capabilities in the areas of wear protection, enhanced oxidation stability, chemical stability, effective rust and corrosion protection, colour stability, and filterability not only prolong maintenance service intervals but improve machine performance and increase production capacity. This can result in less required maintenance and longer equipment life.

Features	Advantages and Potential Benefits
Excellent Wide Temperature Performance	Easier start-up and improved lubrication at cold starts Extra margin of protection at elevated temperatures Better control of feed rates
Exceptional Wear Protection	Improved bearing and gear performance
Outstanding Oxidation and Thermal Stability	Longer oil life Lower filter replacement costs Cleaner systems Reduction of system deposits
Effective Water Separation Properties	Allows easier removal of water Reduces formation of undesirable emulsions in systems
Low Traction Coefficient	Reduced energy consumption Lower operating temperatures Reduced wear
Excellent Filterability	Keeps oil lines and flow control mechanisms free of deposits Improved oil flow and cooling performance Lowers filter replacement costs
High Level Rust and Corrosion Protection	Protects gears and bearings in wet environments Provides vapour space protection for areas of bearing and gear cavities above normally wetted surfaces

Applications

• Lubrication of severe industrial paper machine circulating systems
