Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 000998090 oil compatible with my ELGi compressor?

The 000998090 synthetic oil is designed for ELGi rotary screw compressors that require this exact lubricant specification. It is commonly used in EG and EN series compressors, and compatibility should always be confirmed by checking your compressor’s manual or oil specification requirements before use. Not sure? Reach out with your compressor model and serial number and we’ll help confirm compatibility. 

What type of oil is 000998090?

The 000998090 is a full synthetic PAO-based (ISO 46) compressor lubricant, often referred to as Airlube UT. It is engineered for rotary screw compressor applications and built to handle continuous-duty operation.

How often should the 000998090 oil be changed?

Oil change intervals depend on usage, but manufacturers typically recommend checking oil regularly and changing it on a routine schedule at around 8,000 operational hours. Heavy use or harsh conditions may require more frequent changes.

Is this an OEM part?

This is an OEM-equivalent replacement oil designed to meet or exceed ELGi performance standards while offering a cost-effective alternative. 

What are the signs that the oil needs to be changed?

Common signs include:

  • Darkened or contaminated oil
  • Increased operating temperatures
  • Reduced compressor efficiency
  • Reaching the recommended service interval

Can this oil be mixed with other compressor oils?

It is generally recommended to fully drain and refill the system when switching oil types. Mixing oils with different base stocks or additive packages can affect performance and lubricant stability.

What does the 000998090 oil do?

This oil is responsible for:

  • Lubricating internal components (airend, bearings, gears)
  • Sealing clearances inside the compressor
  • Dissipating heat generated during compression

It also helps reduce oil carryover, which improves downstream air quality and system efficiency.
