Brayco Micronic SBF E

Castrol Brayco Micronic SBF E is an environmentally leading barrier fluid specifically formulated using fully synthetic base oil for use in subsea rotating equipment and where a barrier fluid is required. The fluid is specifically formulated to incorporate all the features required for reliable operation of high speed subsea gas compressors and subsea pumps running under continuous duty cycle in the demanding subsea environment. This product has also been developed to provide electrical insulation and cooling of high power electric motors. It provides operators with an environmental alternative to conventional subsea barrier fluids, being fully compliant against North Sea OSPAR legislation (and tested in other required geographies).

• Specifically formulated for use in subsea pumps and compressors requiring an oil based barrier fluid.
• Electrical insulation properties ensure suitability for internal cooling of high voltage electric motors.
• Provides a barrier against seawater ingress and process fluid ingress into system hardware.
• Low pour point ensures operation down to -50ºC in areas where low ambient temperatures prevail.

• All components tested in accordance with OSPAR environmental legislation.
• Environmental testing has been completed for compliance in other geographies.
• Electrical insulation properties provide additional protection against shorting in high-power motors.
• Good lubrication performance in radial and axial bearings and seals systems.
• Low viscosity prevents shear and heat generation in high-speed machinery.
• Fully compatible and miscible in all proportions with other products in the Castrol Brayco Micronic range.
• Fully compatible and miscible in all proportions with typical mineral oil-based products, allowing easy upgrade of existing systems by top-up.

Storage:

All packages should be stored under cover. Where outside storage is unavoidable, drums should be laid horizontally to avoid the possible ingress of water and the obliteration of drum markings. Products should not be stored above 60°C or exposed to hot sun or freezing conditions.
