Hitachi Refrigeration Oil: 3-Pronged Protection for Your Unit

By Qishanr Lubricants September 29th, 2025 225 views

1. Simplify Refrigerant Compatibility

Modern refrigeration systems rely on mixed refrigerants:
  • R22 (for older units)
  • R410A (for new eco-friendly units)
  • R134a (for refrigerated trucks)
Traditional oils require multiple stock types, increasing the risk of misselection and system failures.

✅ Hitachi’s Solution:Take its flagship model UX-300 (shown in the image above) as an example — made with high-performance POE (polyol ester) synthetic base oil, it works seamlessly with:
  • HFCs (R134a, R410A, etc.)
  • HCFCs (R22)
  • Even some CFC systems
One oil fits all scenarios, slashing procurement and maintenance costs.

2. Withstand Extreme Temperatures

Extreme weather poses critical threats to units:
  • Frigid winters (-30°C): Inferior oil solidifies, clogging pipelines.
  • Scorching summers: Overloaded compressors push oil temperatures to dangerous levels.
✅ Hitachi’s Advantage:UX-300 is engineered to handle extremes:
  • Pour point: -42°C → Stays fluid in freezing conditions.
  • Flash point: 270°C → Eliminates fire/explosion risks (far above normal discharge temperatures).
Guarantees 24/7 stable operation, no matter the weather.

3. Anti-Counterfeiting for Safety

Counterfeit refrigeration oil is a hidden hazard:
  • Made from recycled waste oil, it quickly forms sludge.
  • Can ruin a new compressor in just 3 months.
✅ Hitachi’s Protection:Since 2025, all Hitachi refrigeration oil (like the UX-300 in the photo) comes with "dual-verification" packaging:
  • Laser-patterned anti-counterfeiting labels (hard to replicate).
  • QR codes (scan to check production details, customer info).
Alerts trigger if the QR code is scanned >3 times, blocking counterfeits at the source.
