Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256
ExxonMobil aviation , United States
Aircraft Type Gas Turbine Lubricant
Product Description
Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256 gas turbine lubricant is a combination of a highlystable synthetic base fluid and a unique chemical additive package. Thecombination provides outstanding thermal and oxidative stability to resistdeterioration and deposit formation in both the liquid and vapor phases, aswell as excellent resistance to foaming.
The effective operating range of Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256 is between -54°C and176°C (-65°F and 350°F). The pour point is below -60°C (-75°F). The producthas a high specific heat in order to ensure good heat transfer from oil-cooledengine parts. In extensive laboratory testing and in-flight performance,Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256 exhibits excellent bulk oil stability at temperaturesup to 176°C (350°F). The evaporation rate at these temperatures is low enoughto prevent excessive loss of volume.
Application
Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256 is recommended for aircraft gas turbine engines incommercial and military service, particularly where start-up temperatures arebelow -40°C (-40°F). The product is approved against U.S. MilitarySpecification MIL-PRF-7808, Grade 3, and by the following engine and accessorymanufacturers:
Engine and Accessory Approvals
Approved in equipment specifying 3 centistokes, MIL-PRF-7808 (latest revision)lubricants. Mobil Avrex S Turbo 256 is compatible with other synthetic gasturbine lubricants meeting MIL-PRF-7808 or MIL-PRF-23699 Specifications.However, mixing with other products is not recommended because the blendwould result in some loss of the performance characteristics of Mobil Avrex STurbo 256. The product is compatible with all metals used in gas turbineconstruction, as well as with F rubber (Viton A), H rubber (Buna N), and FVMQrubber (fluorosilicone).
Advantages
| Uniquely suited for use when extreme low temperatures restrict the use of higher viscosity engine oils. |
