Specifics of operation in the conditions of the Far North of technological machines and equipment

Studies of the effectiveness of lubricants in the operation of technological machines and equipment have shown that the use of synthetic oils is most suitable for use in the Far North. In addition, synthetic oils can significantly reduce the wear of technological machines in conditions of low temperature. The effectiveness of lubricants largely determines the efficiency, safety and reliability of technological machines and equipment of various types of road-building machines and automotive equipment. In relation to such objects, the most common are internal combustion engines (ICE) and gearboxes. There are three main types of liquid lubricants, lubrication systems of internal combustion engines (ICE) and gearboxes: the first is mineral oils obtained by distillation of fuel oil; the second is semi-synthetic oils obtained by mixing two different bases: 30-50% synthetics and 50-70% mineral oil; the third is synthetic oils obtained by synthesis of molecules.
