The patented synthetic coolant engineered for peak compressor performance and extended service life. Executive Summary Ingersoll Rand Super Coolant (Part Number: 38459582)​ is an American-patented synthetic coolant specifically formulated for Ingersoll Rand screw compressors. This ether-ester (PAG/Ester) based fluid delivers exceptional thermal stability and oxidation resistance, achieving a service life of up to 8,000 hours—several times longer than mineral oils. It is designed to optimize host performance, reduce carbon deposits, and extend the maintenance cycle of compressor systems . 1. Product Overview and Key Specifications Ingersoll Rand Super Coolant 38459582 is packaged in a 20-liter drum, replacing the previous 5-gallon package (Model 39433735) . Its advanced formulation provides comprehensive lubrication, cooling, and protection for critical compressor components. The table below summarizes its core technical specifications for quick reference.

Performance Characteristics and Engineering Benefits The superior performance of this coolant stems from its unique synthesis and additive package, which offers distinct advantages over conventional oils. Extended Service Life and Reduced Operating Costs: The patented formulation boasts excellent oxidation stability and thermal resistance, allowing it to perform reliably at temperatures up to 110°C. This translates to a lifespan of up to 8,000 hours, significantly reducing coolant consumption, frequency of maintenance, and associated labor costs . Enhanced System Reliability and Efficiency: The coolant’s low carbon formation​ tendency minimizes the risk of carbon deposits that can clog oil filters, oil separators, and oil coolers. This maintains optimal heat exchange efficiency and prevents premature host failures due to overheating or abnormal wear. Its excellent air separation properties​ and anti-foaming characteristics​ ensure efficient operation and reliable lubrication . Superior Protection Under Extreme Conditions: With a high viscosity index (VI=173), the coolant maintains stable viscosity across a wide temperature range (-45°C to 200°C), ensuring effective lubrication and protection both at startup and during high-temperature operation. It also offers good anti-emulsification, rust prevention, and extreme pressure (EP) protection​ . 3. Compatible Compressor Models Ingersoll Rand Super Coolant 38459582 is suitable for a wide range of Ingersoll Rand compressors, including :

Stationary Screw Compressors: UP Series: UP5-11, UP5-15, UP5-18, UP5-22, UP5-30 ML/MM/MH Series: ML-MM-MH37, ML-MM-MH45-75, ML-MM-MH90-160, ML-MM-MH250-Ⅱ SSR Series: SSR M200-M350-2S-HV, SSR M300-2S-LV M Series: M37-Ⅱ, M37-Ⅲ, M55-Ⅲ, M90-2S, M110-2S, M132-2S, M160-2S Oil-Free Screw Compressors: Such as IRN55K-CC, IRN75K-CC, IRN100H-CC, and other models . Portable Compressors: Including models like P375, P400WCU . 4. Application and Maintenance Guidelines Recommended Oil Change Interval First Oil Change: 500 hours of operation for a new compressor or after a major overhaul . Standard Replacement Interval: Up to 8,000 hours or 2 years, whichever comes first . The actual interval should be adjusted based on the operating environment and workload. Oil Change Procedure Start the compressor and run for about 20 seconds, then shut it down. This creates some pressure in the system to help drain the oil . Slowly open the drain valve​ (Caution: Oil may be hot!). Allow the old oil to drain completely for at least 30 minutes . Replace the oil filter. Add the new Super Coolant until the oil level reaches the upper mark on the sight glass. Avoid overfilling . Critical Precautions Do Not Mix Oils: This synthetic coolant must not be mixed with other types of compressor oils (mineral or other synthetics) to prevent chemical reactions that could degrade performance . Thorough Cleaning: When switching to this coolant, the compressor system must be thoroughly cleaned using a dedicated flushing oil or the new coolant itself to remove residual old oil . Prevent Contamination: Seal the container promptly after use to avoid contamination from moisture or debris . 5. FAQ: Common Engineer Queries Q1: What is the main advantage of using Super Coolant over standard mineral oil? The primary advantage is the dramatically extended service life (8,000 hours)​ and greatly reduced carbon deposition. This leads to lower long-term costs, reduced maintenance downtime, and enhanced system reliability . Q2: Can this coolant be used in all Ingersoll Rand screw compressors? It is compatible with a wide range of IR screw compressors, including the UP, ML/MM/MH, SSR, and M series, as well as some oil-free models. However, always consult the specific compressor’s official manual or contact an authorized IR service provider to confirm compatibility for your specific model and serial number . Q3: What are the consequences of not changing the coolant on time? Prolonged use of degraded coolant can lead to increased carbon buildup, potentially clogging oil passages, filters, and the oil separator. This can cause a rise in operating temperature, reduced efficiency, increased energy consumption, and even premature failure of the compressor host . Conclusion Ingersoll Rand Super Coolant 38459582 is a high-performance synthetic lubricant engineered to maximize the efficiency, reliability, and service life of your Ingersoll Rand screw compressor. Its exceptional thermal stability, extended drain interval, and protective properties make it a cost-effective choice for demanding industrial applications.
