3 | Areas of application
The compressors are filled with the following oil type at the factory:
- for R134a, R404A/R507, R407C
FUCHS Reniso Triton SE 55
- for R22
FUCHS Reniso SP 46
Compressors	with	ester	oil	charge	(FUCHS	Reniso	Triton	SE	55)	are	marked	with	an	X	in	the	type	
designation (e.g. F
X18/3235).

INFO
For	refilling,	we	recommend	the	above	oil	types.	
Alternatives:	see	lubricants	table,	Chapter	6.4
ATTENTION Compressor operation is possible within the operating limits shown
in	the	diagrams.	Please	note	the	significance	of	the	shaded	areas.	
Thresholds should not be selected as design or continuous operat-
ing points.
-	Max.	permissible	discharge	end	temperature:	140°C
-	Max.permissible	switching	frequency:	Please	refer	to	the	 
 instructions of the engine manufacturer.
- A minimum running time of 3 min. steady-state condition 
 (continuous operation) must be achieved.
Avoid continuous operation near the threshold.
For	operation	with	supplementary	cooling:
- Use only oils with high thermal stability.
For	operation	with	capacity	regulator:
 - The suction gas superheat temperature may need to be reduced 
or set individually when operating near to the threshold.
	When	operating	in	the	vacuum	range,	there	is	a	danger	of	air	 
entering	on	the	suction	side.	This	can	cause	chemical	reactions,	a	
pressure rise in the condenser and an elevated compressed-gas 
temperature.	Prevent	the	ingress	of	air	at	all	costs!
ATTENTION The correct oil level is shown
in Figure 4. 
Damage to the compressor 
is possible if overfilled or 
underfilled!
