Which blend of oil should I use for a R22 commercial temp condensing unit? There are alkylbenzene and mineral for R22. I know most R12 and the retrofits use alkylbenzene oil. AC units commonly use mineral oil. This unit did not specify.

thanks

For medium Temperature aplications I would use 3GS mineral oil.

Xenos.

The best way to escape a problem is to solve it.
