Frequently Asked Questions
Airlube UT Synthetic Plus 5.3 Gallon - 20L
▶️ Question: Is Airlube UT Synthetic Fluid compatible with all ELGi compressors?
Answer: Compatibility depends on the compressor model and its approved lubricant list. Confirm the exact fluid requirement in your ELGi manual or service documentation.
▶️ Question: What’s the difference between UT Synthetic and UT Synthetic Plus?
Answer: They are different Airlube UT formulations. Select the exact fluid specified for your compressor; do not substitute unless ELGi documentation confirms interchangeability.
▶️ Question: Do I need to flush the system when switching to a synthetic fluid?
Answer: In many cases, yes—especially if you’re changing lubricant type. Follow ELGi guidance for draining, flushing (if required), and filter replacement during conversion.
▶️ Question: Can I top off with a different compressor oil if I’m low?
Answer: Mixing oils can change performance and increase deposit risk. If the correct fluid isn’t available, it’s safer to stop and source the specified lubricant.
▶️ Question: What maintenance items should I replace during an oil change?
Answer: Common items include the oil filter and—depending on hours/condition—the separator element. Follow your compressor’s service schedule for exact intervals.
