TYPICAL FILTER, REGULATOR AND LUBRICATOR PACKAGE
A lubricant is required for all internal moving parts of the air motor and air control
valves. This is intended to reduce wear and prevent rust. Brand name oils are suitable
if they are mineral base, wax free & aniline point in the range of 200-220°F. Oils must
be thin enough to atomize in the lubricator. This should be in the range of Group D,
Turbine Light with a viscosity of 32 at 100°F. Listed below is a representative group of
suitable light oils that may be considered for use.
