Cetus EliteSyn MGX is recommended for:
– Lubrication of turbochargers in marine diesel engines.
– Single-stage and multi-stage reciprocating and centrifugal compressors, and oil flooded screw compressors including stationary, semi-portable and portable units.
– Air, compressed natural gas (CNG), landfill gas and inert gas.
Not recommended for use in breathing air compressors.
Cetus® EliteSyn MGX with VARTECH™ Technology, is a range of high-performance synthetic compressor lubricants, blended with high quality polyalphaolefin (PAO) base fluid and an advanced additive system designed for improved performance and longer oil life.
Cetus EliteSyn MGX range is capable of providing oil maintenance intervals of over 8000 hours for rotary air compression applications. It is suitable for portable and stationary rotary, vane and screw compressors
Cetus EliteSyn MGX oils are designed to meet the requirements of modern higher output, more efficient compressors, which are more compact, operating at higher speeds and higher temperatures. The higher thermal and oxidation stability reduces deposit formation on valves and air separators. Cetus EliteSyn MGX oils feature a high viscosity index, improved thermal and mechanical efficiency and higher thermal and hydrolytic stability, to save on maintenance and lubrication costs through longer oil drain intervals.

Performance Benefits
1. Potential maintenance and downtime savings
VARTECH™ Technology reduces varnish formation to help maintain peak performance, reliability, and productivity throughout the oil’s service life.
It helps reduce the build-up of harmful deposits on critical areas such as valves and bearings, hence maintaining compressor performance under severe operating conditions.
2. Enhanced equipment protection
Effective corrosion inhibition helps protect against rust and corrosion caused by high operating temperatures or moisture entering the system, particularly during shutdown and intermittent operation.
3. Operational reliability
Exceptional Oxidation and Thermal Stability assists with long service life resisting oil breakdown at high discharge temperatures with Minimal Deposit Formation. Ashless additive technology, blended with high quality PAO base fluid, promotes low carbon forming tendency, helping to minimize deposit formation in the compressor.
