CASTROL Magna PM 460 S

Description

Castrol Magna™ PM S Range (previously called Cresta™ SPM ) is specially designed for use in the central lubricating

systems of paper machines. The Magna PM S Range is suitable for lubricating gears, bearings and dryer cylinders

operating under arduous condition and extreme temperatures at the wet and dry ends of paper machines.

These products are formulated using high quality synthetic base fluids and a carefully selected additive system to

provide excellent filterability and outstanding resistance against thermal degradation, oxidation, sludge/deposit

formation and corrosion as well as wear to component parts. The Magna PM S Range have very low pour points and

high viscosity indices, which ensure excellent cold start properties and effective

maintenance of viscosity and load carrying capacity at high operating temperatures. The excellent lubricity and the

optimal oil film properties of these products make it possible to reduce energy consumption and operating

temperatures and enable savings on operating costs.

Application

Magna PM S Range is recommended for the centralised lubricating systems in paper machines operating at very high

temperatures. It provides excellent filterability even in those systems with ultrafine filters that are operating under very

severe condition. Magna PM S Range is compatible with a wide range of commonly used seal materials including viton,

polyurethane, silicone and selected grades of nitrile rubber.

They are also fully compatible with the mineral oil based lubricants so extensive flushing is not normally required during

change-over.

Advantages

Extends the life of the lubricant and the oil filters.

Excellent resistance to the formation of deposits ensures clean operation and prolonged component life.

Excellent water separating ability enables optimal bearing operation under conditions of high humidity and

severe water contamination.

Outstanding filterability.

Excellent low temperature properties enables smooth cold starting and minises the possibility of pipe line

blockages.

Optimal oil film thickness and friction-reduction characteristics enables lower operating temperatures and

improved energy efficiency.

Excellent protection against rust and the corrosion.

Excellent thermal, oxidative and chemical stability means that system can be operated at higher speed under

higher steam pressures and operating temperature.

Reduction/elimination of unexpected shutdowns leads to reduction in the maintenance and lost-production

costs.
