Nov.
16, 2011 – Petro-Canada Lubricants Inc. has announced that its Synduro SHB 46
synthetic multifunctional fluid has met the physical and performance
requirements of Voith, and is suitable for lubrication of Voith Vorecon
gearboxes.
“This
approval comes as a great step for Petro-Canada as we work to convert the
Suncor Oils Sands equipment over to Petro-Canada Lubricants,” reports Joanna
Ha, category manager, Synduro, Petro-Canada Lubricants. “Synduro SHB 46 exceeds
many of the Vorecon requirements and we are very proud to have the approval of
Voith moving forward.”
Suncor
currently operates a number of Voith Vorecon variable-speed, planetary-type
RWE11F6 gearboxes that are used in conjunction with boiler feed pumps at its
Alberta FireBag facility.
The line of fluids is designed for gear, bearing and compressor
applications in heavy-duty
industries, where low seasonal start-up temperatures and/or high operating temperatures
prevail.
