Roto Synthetic Fluid ULTRA
Roto Synthetic Fluid ULTRA is a synthetic oil based 4000 hours lubricant, specially developed
for use in single stage oil injected screw compressors running in demanding conditions. Roto
Synthetic Fluid ULTRA can be used for compressors operating at ambient temperatures between
0 ˚C (32 ˚F) and 40 ˚C (104 ˚F). For more extreme conditions, or when continuously operating at
temperatures above 40 °C (104 °F), it is recommended to use Roto Synthetic Fluid XTEND
DUTY.

Run the compressor regularly, e.g. twice a week, until warm.
If the compressor is going to be stored without running from time to time, protective
measures must be taken. Consult Atlas Copco.
