Don't let your lubricant halt production

Your choice in lubricants can affect your equipment production uptime and life cycle costs. When selecting a lubricant for your plant equipment it is important to consider a number of factors, including:

 Frequency of lubrication: With some lubricants, power generation equipment requires frequent relubrication which can impact production and can be costly over time.

Extreme production environments: High temperatures and harsh chemicals can cause lubricant breakdown, compromising performance and ultimately leading to additional maintenance effort.

Safety and environmental concerns: Some lubricants contain volatile organic chemical or chlorinated materials, which can be hazardous to the environment and to plant employees. Frequent relubrication increases employee exposure to dangerous, high-temperature areas.

Maximize uptime and minimize costs with DuPont™ Krytox® Lubricants

For over 20 years, DuPont™ Krytox® lubricants have provided state-of-the-art performance for mechanical systems such as turbine auxiliary systems, gearboxes, dampers, valves, gaskets, seals and other components.

Proprietary Krytox® technology can provide the best available equipment performance and lowest available life cycle cost through:

Longer lasting lubrication: Reduce the amount of lubricant needed by 10x or greater, to decrease costs and frequency of relubrication. Krytox® can extend lubrication intervals from weekly to annually.

Reduced wear and tear: Krytox® lubricants can decrease wear on bearings and gears and stand up to the extreme temperatures (225°F – 750°F) and harsh chemicals that can significantly reduce maintenance efforts and the chances of component failure.

Chemical compatibility and environmental safety: Krytox® lubricants are chemically, biologically and environmentally inert and silicone-free, and contain no hazardous VOC materials or chlorine. And, because less lubricant is needed, you can reduce lubricant waste.
