Sl.No. Synosis Points
1 This standard prescribes the requirements, methods of sampling and test for lubricating oils for refrigeration machinery.
2 This standard was first published in 1968 and subsequently revised in 1989 in view of adoption of ISO viscosity grades for lubricants by oil industries. In the second revision in 1997, lubricants based on non-petroleum products such as synthetic base refrigeration oils with specified floc points were incorporated. A new viscosity grade VG 100 was also included. In this third revision, Amendment No. 1 dated August 2020 has been incorporated in the standard, vide which requirement of floc point is removed and requirement of type of base fluid is introduced.
