A Highly Compatible Compressor Oil
SIROCCOTM is a revolutionary compressor oil specially
formulated to be compatible with the vast majority of
compressor oils currently available on the market. It is
compatible with mineral oils and synthetic oils, including
glycol-based compressor oils such as Sullair Sullube
32® and Ingersoll-Rand SSR Ultra Coolant®, and
requires no flushing when changing over from these
lubes. SIROCCOTM is not compatible with silicone com-
pressor oils such as Sullair 24KTTM.
Unsurpassed Synthetic Performance
SIROCCOTM is designed to work in virtually every make
and model of rotary screw compressors. Rotary screw
compressor lubricants typically require elevated levels
of rust and oxidation protection because compressor oils
can get extremely hot. If these oils are not protected by
oxidation resistant additive systems, they form carbon
deposits which significantly reduce oil life. Because
SIROCCOTM has been formulated with outstanding oxi-
dation protection, it is well suited for compressors that
call for an ISO-32 or ISO-46 compressor oil.
The nature of compressed air also poses serious
challenges to any compressor lubricant. When air is
compressed, humidity in the air is also compressed
and forms moisture inside the compression chamber.
This moisture eventually builds up to contamination
levels and saturates the compressor lubricant. Because
this entrained water can cause rusting, increased wear,
and a breakdown in lubricant film protection, the com-
pressor lubricant must readily separate from water.
Test results clearly demonstrate that SIROCCOTM pro-
vides much better demulsibility than other leading
glycol-based compressor oils. And SIROCCOTM
Compressor Oil is biodegradable, ensuring an enviro-
mentally friendly condensate discharge, which reduces
the hazardous waste disposal concerns common with
glycol-based compressor oils.
Competitively Priced
AMSOIL SIROCCOTM Compressor Oil is priced at an
average of $1,000 to $1,500 less per drum than SSR
Ultra-Coolant ® or Sullair Sullube 32®, providing sig-
nificant savings over PAG-type fluids. And because
SIROCCOTM is compatible with virtually all rotary screw
compressors, customers can rely on one compressor
lubricant for many pieces of equipment, lowering inven-
tory requirements and reducing overall operating costs.
Extended Service Life Lowers Operating Costs
SIROCCOTM also offers consumers the benefit of
extended service life. SIROCCOTM is so oxidatively
stable that it has a recommended service life of 8,000
hours (about one year of constant compressor opera-

tion) contributing to significant maintenance savings.
The low friction design characteristics of SIROCCOTM
also contribute to considerable reductions (3% to 8%)
in the energy required to operate industrial compressors.
AMSOIL SIROCCOTM Synthetic Compressor Oil won a
bronze Award in the "Plant Services MRO Product of the
Year" competition. In fact, SIROCCOTM was the only lubri-
cant product named this year.
SIROCCOTM has already
had a profound impact on the
rotary screw compressor oil
market by offering users
tremendous performance and
cost savings over competitive
products. These qualities make
SIROCCOTM Compressor Oil
exactly the type of high-per-
formance, high-value product
that customers have come to
expect from AMSOIL.
