On air – the world's first oxygen sliding agent with NSF-H1 approval
Klüberalfa^®YV 93-302

Klüberalfa^® YV 93-302 is the world's first and, to our knowledge, only high-pressure sliding agent for oxygen installations which at the same meets the stringent requirements for lubricants that may come into contact with food products.

Klüberalfa^® YV 93-302 thus closes a gap, being suitable in particular for applications involving breathing oxygen. Such installations are found, for example, in medical applications and the diving sector, and the sliding agents used are directly exposed to the gas. It is therefore not impossible for the air to contain some of the sliding agent. For this reason, it is very important in such applications that the sliding agent does not pose any health hazard whatsoever. Pure oxygen is an aggressive gas encouraging explosion, but also a fundamental prerequisite of human life – it should be handled with utmost care for both reasons. Klüberalfa^® YV 93-302 has passed the oxygen pressure test at the BAM (German Institute for Materials Research and Testing) and is listed as an NSF-H1 lubricant.

For all sliding agents made by Klüber to be used in applications with oxygen contact results of relevant tests conducted by the BAM are available.
