Errecom’s refrigeration lubricants: chemical excellence since 2001

Experience and quality are the principles which have guided Errecom over the years, as manufacturers committed to excellence in chemical solutions for air conditioning and refrigeration systems since 2001.

Errecom controls every single process and component, in order to give life to products of the very highest quality.

As a European company, Errecom endorses tightened laws and protocols which aim to help preserve the planet, working with a green vision and being aware that there are places and values to be preserved over time.

Research: at the heart of Errecom’s production

Errecom has been investing in its research and development department since the very beginning; advanced machinery and highly qualified staff are the real showpieces of Errecom’s laboratories.

A deep and specialised knowledge has led Errecom chemists to develop products that solve the problems encountered in many air conditioning and refrigeration systems.

From additives to lubricants: a very short step.

Errecom’s laboratories have developed a product offering that is able to respond to a very specific market demand, coming quickly to the formulation of special lubricants for air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Errecom is synonymous with reliability, quality and 360° knowledge.

POE: Errecom’s best sellers in HVACR lubrication

Errecom’s laboratories consider the system and its specifications first, as well as the gas or the refrigerant mixture in use. Errecom’s proposal in lubrication is mainly focused on new conception mixtures: synthetic oils that ensure low environmental impact, low power consumption for production and high performances for the system in order to reduce the final costs.

POE (polyolester) lubricants are synthetic lubricants with high chemical and thermal stability. Due to their good miscibility with refrigerants, they are the best choice for applications with HFC/FC such as R134a, R404A, R407C. POE oils are also compatible with hydrocarbons such as R290 propane and R1270 propylene. In addition, Errecom’s additive offer is always evolving and Errecom’s POE is the best solution for applications with new generation HFO (hydrogenation of fluorinated olefins) such as R1234yf and R1234ze, which are both low-GWP latest formulation gases.

The high viscosity index ensures excellent low-temperature flowability and a stable film at high temperatures, thus enabling maximum efficiency in all operating conditions.

The pursued aims in the development of new Errecom lubricants are;

  • excellent lubricant ability;
  • hydrolytic stability;
  • high compatibility with the materials of all kind of systems, both old and new (with a constant attention to their evolution over the time);
  • excellent properties at low temperature;
  • electrical isolation;
  • low toxicity and high biodegradability level, always following our green philosophy precepts;
  • reduced hygroscopicity and anti-humidity additive;
  • high thermal stability to oxidation;
  • high solubility performances with refrigerants;
  • optimal miscibility with refrigerants.

Errecom’s experience in the development of versatile additive packages, and the use of the most environmentally friendly raw materials, has led to one of the best lubricants for refrigeration now on the market.

Errecom’s POE synthetic lubricants, in all their viscosity indices, are composed of a mixture of esters of polyols and additives specifically formulated for a better lubricity, chemical and thermal stability, and excellent anti-wear protection of air conditioning and refrigeration system components. Thanks to the complete removal of polymerization catalysts, Errecom’s POE is one of the more stable and less reactive products within a system using POE.

PAG for CO2

Errecom’s PAG (polyalkylene glycol) for CO2 guarantee high-performances in air conditioning and refrigeration systems with CO2.

CO2 is a refrigerant with a complex and delicate balance, which requires outstanding performance from the lubricant. Errecom’s PAG lubricants offer a better miscibility with CO2 in a wide range of concentrations and temperatures. This means excellent lubricating properties and higher efficiency for the refrigeration system.

These oils have a reduced hygroscopicity when compared to normal PAG, which is unprotected to hydroxyl and used with other refrigerants. These oils also have high chemical stability, as well as thermal and hydrolysis resistance.

Errecom’s PAG for CO2 advantages are;

  • miscibility with CO2 in a wide range of lubricant concentrations and temperatures;
  • less hygroscopic than a PAG without protection in the process of absorbing water;
  • high chemical stability when exposed to heat and hydrolysis;
  • excellent lubricating capacity.
