Turbine Oil 68

High Performance Turbine Oil ISO VG 68

Caretta Turbine Oil 68 is a supreme performance turbine oil specially designed for use in geared and non-geared steam turbines, gas turbines and combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT) including the gas turbines operating at high temperatures.

Caretta Turbine Oil 68 is based on high quality base oil in combination with an unique additive package to ensure the following properties:
• Outstanding thermal and oxidation stability.
• Prevents sludge formation, controls deposits and minimizes oil degradation.
• Superior anti-wear property and load carrying capability provide excellent protection for geared turbines
• Excellent water separation capability resists formation of emulsion and leads to easy removal of excess water from the lubrication system
• Effective rust and corrosion inhibitors provide long term protection to critical system components
• Good air release properties and foam control.

Caretta Turbine Oil 68 exceeds the following performance
