Frigi-Tech Refrigeration Oil Supplement - Technical Discussion

Frigi-Tech Refrigeration Oil has an advanced additive package specifically engineered for the severe service environments of air conditioning and refrigeration systems.  By adding only 5-10% by volume mixture of Frigi-Tech with the compressor’s refrigeration oil, operating and maintenance cost are reduced.  Depending on the condition of the system, energy cost drop between 6% and 20% due to reduced compressor friction and improved unit capacity. 

Frigi-Tech

Special anti-friction additives improve the compressor’s mechanical efficiency to reduce power consumption.  In addition, the supplement contains additives that improve coil heat transfer.  This improved thermal efficiency (heat duty) increases the unit’s capacity, thus allowing it to run fewer hours per a day for the same amount of cooling.  The reduced wear and tear that accompanies improved system operations extends equipment life and reduces overall maintenance costs.

Using Frigi-Tech Refrigeration Oil Supplement is a quick, simple, and cost effective way to lower air conditioning and refrigeration systems operation and maintenance cost.  It is Frigi-Tech's technology that makes such cost savings possible.  The following technical discussion describes the supplement’s ingredients and explains how they function.

Frigi-Tech Refrigeration Oil Supplement consists of a napthenic oil base and a number of specially developed additives.  A napthenic oil is used as the supplement’s foundation because of its excellent Viscosity Index qualities, and its low pour point.

A tremendous amount of research was conducted in the United States to develop the additives used in Frigi-Tech Refrigeration Oil Supplement.  Once developed, extensive laboratory testing was performed to fine tune the precise quantities of each additive in order to maximize product performance.  The result is an advanced refrigeration oil additive package that, when used as directed, significantly improves the performance of air conditioning and refrigeration systems.  Frigi-Tech uses 5 types of additives: anti-wear additives, oxidation inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, surfactant agents, and conditioners.  Each of these additives is discussed in detail.
