Emkarate RL
Core Strengths & Capabilities:
Focused R&D, supported by the Lubrizol and Berkshire Hathaway ecosystem .
Extensive application testing: viscosity, wear, oxidation, hydrolytic stability, PVT, ASHRAE 97, Falex, and real-world compressor testing for up to 1,000 hours.
Field support includes oil analysis, application consulting, and tailored solutions—an integrated “CPI Advantage™” model
Product Portfolio:
Refrigeration & A/C Lubricants
Widely used Emkarate® POE, Icematic® NXG/ECO, and Solest® lines, compatible with HFCs, HFOs, hydrocarbons, ammonia, CO₂.
Optimised for low-GWP refrigerants, designed for improved energy efficiency and environmental compliance.
Key Technical Features & Benefits:
- Low volatility & hydrolytic stability → reduces evaporation and chemical breakdown.
- High lubricity & viscosity index, plus low pour point → ensures reliable performance across wide temperature ranges.
- Complete demulsibility → effective separation from water in moisture-prone systems.
- Wear/corrosion protection and clean performance → reduced sludge, extended drain intervals, lower maintenance costs, and longer equipment life.
Sustainability & Future Outlook:
CPI is developing formulations focused on reducing GWP, enhancing cold chain efficiency, and lowering CO₂ emissions.
They’re exploring partnerships in carbon capture (modifying CO₂ viscosity), alternative packaging like bag-in-box, and energy-efficient lubricants that improve lifecycle environmental impacts.
Summary:
CPI Lubricants stands out for:
- A 70+ year heritage and robust backing through Lubrizol and Berkshire Hathaway.
- Excellence in tailored synthetic formulations, advanced testing, and technical support.
- A broad and deep product line covering compressors, refrigeration systems, industrial fluids, and specialty heat transfer.
- Proven ability to reduce maintenance costs, boost efficiency, and support sustainable goals.
