I am new to all of this and learning all the time. I appreciate all that people are willing to share. I am working with a Bauer Purus compressor. It has been running with regular petroleum based Bauer oil. I know alot of people reccomend synthetic oil for breathing air compressors. In reading past posts it seems that you just can not replace the regular oil with synthetic. I have read that the entire compressor would have to be taken down and cleaned before synthetic oil could be used. I have a few questions regarding this.
Is the breathing air going to be comprimised using the standard petroleum based oil? I do plan to do partial pressure and stick blending.
What is my best bet with this compressor as far as oil, etc? I simply do not want to put together a system that produces breathing air that is not suitable for nitrox, or is oil laden and a health hazard.
Thanks for your time and advice.
Cheers, Walt
