Description:
CAMCO® LUBRICANTS 717-HT is a high-performance ISO VG 68 ammonia refrigeration compressor oil formulated for demanding industrial R717 ammonia refrigeration systems. It is based on a highly refined, dewaxed two-stage hydrocracked ISO paraffinic base oil combined with additives for oxidation inhibition, corrosion protection, pour-point control and low-foaming performance.
Its advanced base oil technology provides excellent thermal and oxidative stability, strong film strength, dependable lubrication, and excellent anti-wear performance under severe ammonia service conditions. Low volatility and low ammonia solubility help minimize lubricant migration into the refrigeration system, reducing oil carryover, make-up oil consumption, and oil accumulation in evaporators and piping, while helping maintain viscosity and lubrication performance over extended service. CAMCO® reports that the 717 Series provides up to twice the lubricity of conventional solvent-refined Group I oils, helping reduce friction in compressor applications.

Packaging:
Available in 5-gallon pails and 55-gallon drums.

Compatible / Cross-Referenced Oils:
According to CAMCO®, 717-HT is 100% compatible with OEM oils including FES #1, Frick #3, Frick #9, Vilter 717, MyCold AB-68 and HTSC-68.

How to Use:
Follow the compressor and refrigeration system manufacturer's lubrication and maintenance recommendations. Always confirm the required viscosity, system operating conditions and lubricant compatibility before lubricant substitution. CAMCO® states that 717-HT may be used as a top-off lubricant with compatible OEM and mineral ammonia refrigeration oils without requiring a complete oil change.

Typical Applications:
CAMCO® 717-HT is designed for industrial R717 ammonia refrigeration systems, including: rotary screw ammonia compressors, reciprocating ammonia compressors, rotary vane compressors, industrial refrigeration systems and selected process-gas compressor applications.
CAMCO® reports good oil return with 717-HT down to approximately -40°F, subject to system design and operating conditions.
