    Bitzer document uses BS170 over range +7.5°C to -50°C

    Check docs here https://www.bitzer.de/gb/en/document...lng=en&lang=en

    Hi if you use thin oil, it won't seal the screws properly to pump,

    Re: Oil Type for HSN

    Hi
    pour point of BSE 170 is about - 28
    our SSD is - 45 and Evaporator working all the time
    ( O2) system and we do not have a defrost to return oil
    I looked the docs in Bitzer it wrote BSE 170
    I put mail to them Bitter but ......
    some thing is not right

    If you do not trust the manufacturer then you wont trust anyone else.

    I don’t really agree on that entirely.
    Oil selection usually to do with evaporating temperatures so not to thick to return.

    Re: Oil Type for HSN

    Hi
    Dear Brian
    I trust them and read all of docs in there's sits
    But I put this question to them
    first they wrote oil should be BSE 170
    When I told them about pour point they mailed me BSE32

    I did a lots work with HSN and used BSE 170
    ( more than 60 cold rooms )
    But all of them was cold rooms ( -35 c) with defrost system
    this one has not defrost so I am not sure about type of oil
    for R 134A they wrote -25 c

    From My experience with Bitzer, Do not use any other oil.

    What is the compressor model?

    hi mbc,

    when you are reading the oil specifications, "In bitzer document for R=404A has BSE 170
    pour point of this oil =-28" >>> these -28 are for pure oil.
    in your system, refrigerant is mixed with oil and there is no problem in using BSE 170 at low temperatures.
    using iso32 oil you will get a high refrigerant concentration in oil at HP stage, low oil viscosity, and bad lubrification at bearings.
