IE B016COMPRESSOR TREATMENT REPORT · 27 JUNE 2007
KT6-U2 compressor: faster pressure build-up, oil stays in the system
Working pressure built up faster, oil leakage into the receiver decreased. 31 % — compressor output, pressure reached in 2 min 28 s → 1 min 53 s; 5× — oil loss into the receiver, 1 l → 200 ml per shift (2007).

Key results
| EQUIPMENT | CONDITION AT THE START OF THE TRIAL | WHAT WAS MEASURED |
|---|---|---|
| KT6-U2 compressor | Increased noise in operation; oil escaped into the receiver; working pressure was reached in 2 min 28 s | Time to reach working pressure, oil loss into the receiver |
KT6-U2 compressor — measurements before and after treatment
| PARAMETER | BEFORE TREATMENT · 25.04.2007 | AFTER TREATMENT · 27.06.2007 |
|---|---|---|
| Time to reach working pressure | 2 min 28 s | 1 min 53 s |
| Oil loss into the receiver | 1 l per shift | 200 ml per shift |
The report states the pressure result as a 24 % gain in output — measured by the reduction in time; converted to output this is 31 %.
Committee conclusion
Current equivalent
Revitalizant gel for compressors and bearings →
Piston, screw and centrifugal compressors; rolling and sliding bearings running in an oil bath; machine-tool spindle units and slideways.

Limits of this report: The results relate to the KT6-U2 compressor of the Kungur branch of WSRC “Permskie Mashzavody” and to its operating conditions; on other units and duty cycles the figures may differ. The treatment was performed by a representative of the XADO concern.
