New turbine lubricant from Petro-Canada

Petro-Canada Lubricants, an HF Sinclair brand, has launched Petro-Canada Lubricants TURBOFLO HTS 46, what the company calls a premium turbine fluid with exceptional thermal stability.

TURBOFLO HTS 46 is approved for MAN Energy Solutions TED 10000494596 specification and meets the performance specifications of many other industry leading OEMs, the company said.

By providing extended corrosion-free lubrication of turbine unit control circuits and bearings, TURBOFLO HTS 46 delivers protection from scuffing and wear, the company said.. It also offers good varnish resistance to improve equipment uptime and reduce reactive maintenance.

The company said that by creating a synergy between ultra-pure, severely-hydrotreated base oils and advanced additive chemistry, the fluid offers excellent thermal stability and enhanced oxidative resistance.

An ashless fluid, TURBOFLO HTS 46 is free of metals and organometallic compounds and benefits from extreme pressure (EP) characteristics.

“TURBOFLO HTS 46 has been formulated to exceed the demanding service requirements of steam and gas turbines, and to meet the comprehensive OEM requirements for oxidative and thermal resistance of modern turbine oils,” said Sara Sidders, segment marketing manager – power generation. “Meeting and exceeding the standard of the coveted MAN Energy Solutions TED 10000494596 specification, this innovative turbine fluid can help operators maximize the efficiency and reliability of their turbine systems and improve equipment life.”

TURBFLO HTS 46 is recommended for geared turbines requiring wear and scuffing protection, and non-geared steam and gas turbine systems that do not require an EP fluid.
