Anderol 500 is a high-performance ISO VG 100 synthetic compressor lubricant engineered by Lanxess (Anderol Specialty Lubricants) specifically for long-life lubrication in reciprocating air compressors and vacuum pumps. Formulated from premium diester synthetics combined with a sophisticated additive system, Anderol 500 provides exceptional thermal and oxidative stability. Designed to replace conventional mineral oils, it significantly minimizes carbon residue deposits, prevents valve sticking, and drastically extends drain intervals—up to 8,000 hours in controlled operating environments. It offers reliable, continuous performance across elevated discharge temperature envelopes while maintaining outstanding film strength under heavy operational loads.

Approved Specifications & Industrial Conformance:
Anderol 500 is recognized by leading compressor OEMs worldwide and conforms to key industrial standards:
- DIN Specification: Exceeds DIN 51506 VDL requirements for severe-duty air compressors.
- OEM Approvals & Acceptance: Formally recommended and approved for use by major reciprocating compressor manufacturers including Ingersoll-Rand, Dresser-Rand, Quincy, and Gardner Denver.
- Particulate & Cleanliness Control: Formulated to reduce varnish, sludge, and severe carbon buildup on discharge valves and intercoolers.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
- Extended Oil Drain Intervals: Operates up to 8,000 hours under normal operating conditions, drastically reducing downtime and oil maintenance costs compared to mineral fluids.
- Varnish and Carbon Elimination: Synthetic diester chemistry prevents carbon formation on valve plates and piston rings, keeping thermal heat exchange surfaces clean.
- High Flash and Auto-Ignition Point: Provides an added layer of operational safety by significantly reducing fire and explosion hazards in high-temperature air compressor discharge lines.
- Superior Shear and Film Strength: Delivers robust boundary lubrication across cylinder walls and crankcase bearings under continuous high-pressure cycles.
- Excellent Water Separation: Demulsifies quickly from water condensate, allowing easy mechanical drainage from air receivers and sump drains.
Typical Applications
- Reciprocating Air Compressors: Designed specifically for crankcase and cylinder lubrication in heavy-duty single and multi-stage reciprocating compressors.
- High-Pressure Vacuum Pumps: Ideal for demanding vacuum systems requiring a low-volatility ISO 100 synthetic fluid that maintains stable vapor pressures.
- Industrial Process Air Systems: Extensively utilized in manufacturing plants, MRO shops, and utility stations operating compressors continuously under hot ambient conditions.
