NYFROST 68 is characterized by having very low pour point, good cold flowing properties and high thermal and chemical stability
High solvent power and very good low temperature properties of NYFROST 68 lead to good floc points for the refrigerant-oil mixture
NYFROST 68 is the first recommendation for refrigerators utilizing Ammonia (R 717) as refrigerant
The benefits of using naphthenic base oils for this application are the high solvent power and the very good low temperature properties that are leading to good floc points for the refrigerant-oil mixture.
As it is wax-free, it is characterized by having a low pour point and good cold flowing properties. On the high temperature side, Nyfrost 68 has higher flash point and high thermal and chemical stability, including being non-corrosive versus iron, copper and aluminium. This product is recommended for use in refrigerators using refrigerants such as Isobutane (R600a), Ammonia (R717) and CFC's (R12 and R 22).
NYFROST 68 is a hydrotreated naphthenic base oil, classified as an API Group V base oil. The viscosity at 40°C is 68 cSt for this product.
