Frequently asked questions about Bathan KO 220 PAO H1
The most important questions and answers!
NSF H1 certification means that the gear oil is approved for incidental food contact. It can be used in food processing plants where contact between lubricant and food cannot be completely ruled out. Bathan KO 220 PAO H1 meets the strict requirements of the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) and is therefore suitable for hygiene-critical applications.
Bathan KO 220 PAO H1 is suitable for all gear applications in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry, conveyor technology, bakery industry, meat and dairy processing and the beverage industry. Wherever the highest hygiene requirements apply and incidental food contact is possible, this food-grade gear oil offers maximum safety.
Bathan KO 220 PAO H1 is temperature-stable and can be used from -50°C to +250°C. The low pour point of -50°C ensures reliable lubrication even in extreme cold, while the high flash point of 250°C enables safe applications at high operating temperatures. This broad temperature stability makes it ideal for demanding industrial environments.
The ceramic particles contained in Bathan KO 220 PAO H1 have a hexagonal plate structure. Under pressure, these particles smooth the metal surfaces of the gear wheels, reduce friction and form a protective ceramic layer. This leads to significantly reduced wear, lower energy consumption and extended service life of the gears – without the cost of real ceramic bearings.
Thanks to the ceramic technology and the synthetic PAO base, Bathan KO 220 PAO H1 significantly extends the service intervals compared to conventional gear oils. The exact change intervals depend on your specific operating conditions. Our experts will be happy to advise you on the optimal maintenance planning for your application.
