Kazan, August 1 - Neftegaz.RU. Production of multigrade hydraulic oils of the VMGZ type has been started at the TANECO Oil Refining Complex.
The company selected domestically manufactured technological equipment and automation tools to equip the new production following the course of import substitution policy. The installation and commissioning of a new line for the production and packaging of hydraulic oils were completed within the shortest possible time.
According to the technical specifications they comply with modern environmental standards and operational requirements and are manufactured on the basis of the own Group II and III base oils produced by hydrocracking technology. This increases competitiveness compared to lubricants currently produced from Group I base oils.
The advantages of VMGZ oil produced by TANECO are confirmed by the following parameters.:
- - high viscosity index characterizes the ability of the oil to maintain properties over a wide range of temperatures;
- - high flash point provides for fire safety. It also indicates the absence of volatile fractions, which evaporate at the most loaded units of equipment at high temperatures, which leads to an increase in oil consumption;
- - high acidity number due to the balanced content of additives and characterizes good anti-wear properties, providing for the protection of parts against wear, oil resistance to oxidation, high thermal and hydrolytic stability.
The design capacity of the production of new lubricants at the TANECO Complex is 1,800 tonnes per year.
