Recommended Applications
Capella HFC lubricants have been developed in cooperation with major refrigerant compressor manufacturers worldwide,
specifically for use with chlorine-free hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants, such as R134a, R404a, R410a or R507, etc.
The product series are especially suited for the first-fill and retrofit lubrication of refrigeration compressors in provision and
industrial refrigeration plants, as well as in air-conditioning systems and heat pump equipment.

Capella HFC grades are not recommended for use in ammonia refrigerating systems, where Capella WF or Capella A are
recommended instead.

Note: Capella HFC lubricants readily absorb moisture from the ambient air, which can cause system performance problems.
Capella HFC packages should be kept sealed until time of use and should not be reused once opened.
