Cetus VDL
High performance compressor oils
Cetus® VDL is a range of high-performance compressor lubricants, especially designed to deliver reduced deposit formation in air compressors, especially portable and stationary rotary, vane, screw, and piston compressors.
Applications
- Single-stage and multi-stage reciprocating and centrifugal compressors, and oil flooded screw compressors
- Air-, compressed natural gas (CNG) and inert gas, single-stage and multi-stage reciprocating compressors.
- Stationary, semi-portable and portable units.
- Bath and circulating systems supplying rolling element bearings of all types, lightly loaded gear sets, vacuum pumps (including rotary vacuum pumps used in the dairy farming industry), machine tools (including computer-controlled units), conveyors, electric motors, and low to moderate pressure hydraulic pumps where anti-wear properties are not required.
Not recommended for use in breathing air compressors.
Customer benefits
- Advanced varnish deposit control technology helps minimise varnish formation, offering maintained peak performance and reduced maintenance downtime.
- Designed to help prevent deposit buildup on critical components, helping to enhance compressor efficiency.
- Helps provide protection from rust and corrosion, even under severe conditions.
- Helps maintain operational reliability with effective oxidation and thermal stability.
- Formulated to extend service life, resisting oil breakdown and minimising deposit formation.
