Atlas Copco Oils & Lubricants
Genuine fluids straight from Ehrler & Beck stock
Why genuine Atlas Copco oils are indispensable
-
Precise vapour pressure window – Every formulation is proven on Atlas Copco pumps on the test bench. This keeps back-diffusion at the low level that high-vacuum stages and clean exhaust systems demand.
-
Additive chemistry proven on OEM hardware – Antioxidants, metal passivators, anti-foam agents and corrosion inhibitors are blended to ISO 6743-3 type VDL and then endurance-tested on Atlas Copco rotor and bearing test rigs.
-
Certified oil change intervals – Field data show a 20–30 % longer service life than with “universal fluids”. This significantly reduces the annual budget and downtime.
-
Audit-ready traceability – Every container comes with a batch certificate (CoA) stating viscosity, water content and TAN – compliant with ISO 9001, GMP and MDR.
-
Available immediately – All items are physically in stock in our warehouse and listed with a real-time stock display on ehrler-beck.shop.
Ester oils – high-temperature performance with minimal backstreaming
Typical applications
- Screw backing pumps with exhaust temperatures > 90 °C
- Processes with aggressive, oxygen-containing solvents (acetone, MEK, ethyl acetate)
- Backing pumps for turbomolecular stages in analytical instruments

| Vacuum Fluid Prime 100 | 3002614062 | 208 L drum |
Key technical data
- Base oil: diester; viscosity 100 mm²/s at 40 °C, 10 mm²/s at 100 °C
- Vapour pressure: < 1 × 10⁻⁴ mbar at 100 °C – prevents backstreaming into diffusion or turbo pumps
- Oxidation stability index (ASTM D2272): > 8 000 h

Operating notes
- Oil change every 4 000 h in clean-air operation, 2 000 h with a high solvent content
- Never mix with mineral or PAO oils; ester dissolves varnish and releases contaminants
- Compatible elastomers: Viton A, FKM, FFKM, PTFE – replace all NBR seals before changing over

PFPE oil – ultimate chemical
and oxygen resistance
Product
| Product | Order no. | Container size |
|---|---|---|
| PFPE oil (fully fluorinated) | 3001170199 | 1 L |
Critical applications
- Oxygen service in medical gas compressors
- Semiconductor plasma etching and corrosive gas flows (Cl₂, SF₆)
- Isotope handling in nuclear medicine, where absolute non-flammability is required
Physical properties
- Base oil: perfluoropolyether; viscosity 180 mm²/s at 20 °C
- Vapour pressure not measurable (< 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ mbar) up to 200 °C
- Non-flammable (Limiting Oxygen Index > 95 %, ASTM D2863)
Maintenance strategy
- Oil change interval up to 12 000 h; mandatory interim analysis (FT-IR, TAN, metal wear) after 4 000 h
- Use only PFPE-compatible elastomers (FFKM, PTFE)
- Mixing with mineral, ester or PAO oils is not possible – even slight contamination produces sludge, so once filled, pumps must be converted to PFPE permanently
