Archine Syntrend CL 1400
HP-LDPE Compressor Lubricants

Product Description
Archine Syntrend CL 1400 & Archine Syntrend CL 1400L have been especially designed to provide the utmost in performance and reliability in the tough service experienced in reciprocating hyper-compressors and intensifiers used in the high-pressure/low-density polyethylene (HP-LDPE) process. These high-performance synthetic PAG lubricants are made from a specially selected polyalkylene glycol-base stock polymer to provide exceptional lubricity and other performance features. A dedicated production facility ensures consistent, high-purity product.,and the product is acceptable under this regulation for use as a lubricant for machinery for producing, manufacturing, packing,processing, preparing, treating, packaging, transporting. Archine Syntrend Compressor Lubricants (CL) series Compressor Lubricant CL 1400 is identical in every specification to ArChine Syntrend CL 1400,but CL 1400 has a higher content of antioxidant. In most cases, the products will perform equally well.

Special Features
Cleanliness: no sludge, varnish, lacquer, etc., formed.
High viscosity index.
No thickeners added to boost viscosity.
Low pressure-viscosity coefficient.
Excellent inherent lubricity without use of external lubricity additives.
Oxidative and thermal stability.

Performance Benefits
Reduced maintenance and substantial maintenance dollar savings resulting from clean-running equipment.
Increased equipment reliability, allowing scheduled maintenance at predictable intervals. Helps cut down lost production due to unscheduled, random maintenance shut-downs.
Compressor packings run cooler and longer due to superior lubricity of Archine Syntrend CL 1400 & Archine Syntrend CL 1400L Compressor Lubricants, an inherent property of the base polyalkylene glycol (PAG). There is no need for lubricity additives that are necessary with competitive white oil and polybutene products. Eliminates worries about potential negative effects of lubricity additives on the polyethylene product.
Archine Syntrend CL 1400 & Archine Syntrend CL 1400L Compressor Lubricants contain no polyisobututene or other thickeners that could drop out and cause deposits on discharge valves.Valves run cleaner and require less maintenance.
Cost-effective lubricant for high-pressure ethylene compressors.
Low pressure-viscosity co-efficient reduces the lubricator pump pressure necessary
to deliver lubricant to the cylinder.
Typical Physical Properties

Changeover Procedure
Anytime a lubricant change is made, care should be taken to assure that the system is properly prepared according to good operating standards. At a minimum, we recommend that old lubricant be drained from the lubricator pumps, the system cleaned, any seals and elastomers inspected, and filters replaced or screens cleaned before the ARCHINE Syntrend CL 1400 and CL 1400L Compressor Lubricant is installed. System cleaning may be necessitated by the build-up of sludge and/or varnish in old systems. Physical wiping or flushing with ARCHINE Syntrend CL1400 and CL 1400L Compressor Lubricant may be required if residual contamination is expected. New units require the removal of preservative or coating fluids in similar fashion. After installing the ARCHINE Syntrend CL 1400 and CL 1400L Compressor Lubricant, adjust lubricators to deliver the manufacturer’s recommended rate of lubricant. Check filters or screens requently during the early stages of operation since ARCHINE Syntrend CL 1400 and CL 1400L Compressor Lubricants will likely loosen residual sludge, varnish, and paint.
