2 BU BV Before describing BV products and services, would like to talk about the BV company. started BV in 98 because recognized a need for an efficient, independent and knowledgeable source of high quality specialty oil products. ver thirty years experience representing a major oil company and working with M and service industry users of speciality oils convinced me of this. s a result, we have developed an organization with over 7 years plus of technical and sales experience. BV is a specialty marketing and development company. We are small enough to be responsive to customer needs, yet large enough to guarantee on-time shipment of quality bulk and packaged products. BV products are principally directed to the refrigeration, auto a/c, mosquito control and agricultural industries including formulating product for users of specialized oil products. BV products are available in a variety of sizes ranging from 2 ml conetop cans to bulk rail cars. he products described in this catalogue are available for the refrigeration/air-conditioning industry and auto a/c. n addition, BV offers a quick response oil test service for a nominal fee. t BV we offer experience, quality products, and, most important, a sincere concern that our customers needs are being satisfied. Give us a try and see for yourself.

3 BV P F UBCN BV ils has been in business forr over 2 years and all products are sold under our own label except the polyol ester lubricants. n December BV decided to Market P's under our own brand BV P. s with all of the refrigeration lubricants we only purchase oils that are M approved. s with all of our refrigerant lubricants BV packages with driers and a nitrogen purge to ensure the finished product arrives as dry as possible fter the Montreal Protocol several new classes of refrigerants such as HFCs, PFCs and interim blends of HFCs and HCFCs were developed. Mineral oils and alkylbenzenes were ineffective with the new refrigerants. ynthetic lubricants such as polyol esters (P) and polyalkylene glycols (PG) were found to work effectively. he primary difference with these new lubricants is that they are miscible with the new refrigerants. Miscibility and solubility between the refrigerant and lubricant determine how the two will behave throughout the system. Miscibility is defined as the ability of two liquids to mix together to form a single liquid phase. olubility is the ability of a gas to dissolve into a liquid. here are three types of miscibility. Completely miscible is where the refrigerant and oil mix to form a single phase over the applied temperature range. Partially miscible is a single phase over a limited temperature range. he temperature at which the lubricant and the refrigerant separate into two phases is called the critical solution temperature (C). mmiscible is when the oil and refrigerant do not mix and stay in two phases. Miscibility xamples Complete -2(CFC) / BV (M) -4a (HFC) and P 2 (P) Partial -22 (HCFC) / BV 4 (M) -4 (HFC) / P 68 (P). mmiscible uva -4 (HFC) / BV (M). he BV P eries offers excellent miscibility with HFC refrigerants. t also has excellent chemical and thermal stability, as well as, superior lubricity characteristics on steel and aluminum. o ensure that BV has the right polyol ester for your application, the BV P eries comes in a wide range of viscosities ranging from 22 (P 22) to an 22 (P 22). BV P eries comes with a non intrusive additive package which is suitable for most applications. BV P P is a polyol ester with a specially formulated extreme pressure additive for aluminum, bronze and steel. f your application requires an additive free P then P N would be your choice.

BV P eries is available in 6 oz., 2 oz., gallon, gallon and gallon containers. BV P P and N are made to order. BV P 2 Different manufacturers of Ps use different building blocks and additive packages. Miscibility characteristics of the same grade can range from immiscible with one manufacturer to completely miscible with another. emp, C M is c ib ilit y C h a r a c t e r is t ic s - 2 % i l % i l 2 % i l s t e r B s t e r C s t e r D s the graph shows not all 2 Ps are created equal. P 2 offers the best low temperature properties available today. n the evaporator with partially miscible lubricants, when the temperature falls below the critical solution temperature, the lubricant and refrigerant will separate into two distinct phases. H C CHC he lubricant no longer diluted by the refrigerant will have a dramatic increase in viscosity. f the temperature is low enough the oil will no longer flow. BV P 2 is a polyol ester that was specifically developed for low temperature systems. t is miscible with HFC 4a to - F. When it comes to making a choice about lubricants for low temperature systems BV P 2 should be your only choice. n f l u e n c e o f i l F i lm % H e a t r a n s f e r w / i l F i l m M H e a t r a n s f e r C o e f f i c i e n t w / o i l F i l m B U / H / Q.

Hygroscopic is defined as a lubricant's ability to absorb moisture from air. Polyol esters can absorb up to.2 % moisture or 2, PPM while mineral oils will absorb up to 2 PPM. o ensure keeping moisture to a minimum BV has a unique way of packaging the P eries using a nitrogen purge which will leave a nitrogen blanket over the lubricant to help ensure it remains dry. ver a period of time moisture will migrate across plastic and the lubricant can pick it up. BV packages the P eries using metal containers 4
