    3GS Compressor oil info please for R134a

    Hi , i have a ac recovery compressor that holds 9.3oz 275cc of compressor oil for use with R134A and the info i can find says it should be oil type 3GS. i have been searching and think this will be vic 150 ? and looks like it is a mineral oil. I wondered if other oils can be used like PAG 150 in place of that ? but think they are synthetic ?

    Also i know PAG oils are hydroscopic and did not know if mineral oils are also ?

    Please can advice be given on what other oils can be used of if PAG 150 will be ok . Thank you for your help.
