Capella WF is a robust and highly stable advanced super-low Freon floc temperature and pour-point
performance to both refrigeration systems and air
technology compressor lubricant specifically formulated to conditioning units, optimising stable lubrication
deliver high performance thermal stability, particularly in the protection and system performance.
very low temperatures present in latest-generation
compressors in refrigeration equipment and air conditioning
systems.
Designed with specially formulated naphthenic pale oils
and high performance temperature stability additive
systems, these advanced fluids are designed to meet and
exceed major compressor manufacturers performance
requirements, delivering a very low freon floc temperature
of –45°C.

High stability performance

Capella WF’s leading edge low temperature performance


optimises system efficiency and service life through very
robust and highly reliable chemical and thermal stability.
Capella WF is highly resistant to waxing at very low
temperatures, protecting expansion valve efficiency and
capillary performance, and ensuring smooth operation over
very long service periods, with the minimum of downtime.
This efficient compressor operation is enhanced through
Capella WF’s chemically stable performance in the
presence of ammonia and fluorinated hydrocarbons such
as R-12 and R-22, minimising varnish and sludge formation
over extended operating periods.
Capella WF’s high performance formulation minimises
water content to very low levels, delivering maximum
corrosion protection, high-efficiency ice-free operation, and
extended equipment service life.

Always confirm that the product selected is consistent with the original equipment manufacturer’s recommendation for the equipment operating conditions and
customer’s maintenance practices.
