5.4 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

COMPRESSOR FLUID
o In our compressors HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN SMARTOIL 2000 type of oil is being used.
This oil is specially produced by taking into account of compressor operation type as you will
se below.
o As the chemical structures and contributions of different types of oils are different; mixing them
with each other or using them in the compressor may cause a severe damage with a high
cost.
o Do not put any oil additive in the compressor oil as in the motor oils. As the oil that you use
has been prepared specially for the compressor; it already includes this type of additives.
o In case of using engine oil, hydraulic oil etc; these two types will get mixed and become paste
consistency and this immediately impairs all the filters of your compressor. If you keep
operating this way, there may be stationary damages in your airend unit in a few days.
o For this reason do not keep other lubricating oils beside your compressor. Because, your
maintenance operator may accidentally use it.
o In addition if you are in need of long life synthetic oil; contact our service and sales
departments.
HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN SMARTOIL 2000
HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN SMARTOIL 2000 is high quality oil developed for screw type compressors.
As the property of separation from water and air is outstandingly developed and as it has a good
oxidation resistance; it is an ideal oil to be used in screw type compressors.
• Oxidation resistance
High temperatures are formed during compression of air. The oil that does not have oxidation
resistance starts to leave oxidized impurities at some points. This causes decrease in efficiency and
increase in maintenance costs. HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN SMARTOIL 2000 prevents the oxidation or
minimizes the expense due to the additives included.
• Protecting the parts against corrosion
By protecting the parts against corrosion it lengthens their service life.
• The property of well separation from air
By rapidly separating from air it prevents the cavitations and contributes the increase of compression.
• Gasket Compliance
HERTZ KOMPRESSOREN SMARTOIL 2000, complies with all the gaskets used in the compressor
• Health and Job Safety
The skin contact of used oil should be especially avoided and in case of contact must be washed with
soap and water. For more information see section 1 (safety)
• Environmental protection
Never pour the used oil to soil and water channels. Do not burn. If possible accumulate them at a
defined collection point and remove them per legal regulations.
