Why use DECON™ HD?
Imagine having the revolutionary power of DECON™ for those heavier oils used in gearboxes!
DECON™ HD has been specifically blended for those ISO 150-320 grade viscosities and should be used at a treat rate of 6-10%.
It provides the oil with the power to remove deposits from the internals of the equipment as it has been formulated with our patented Solvancer® technology.
One of the main challenges with gearboxes is that if their internals get covered in varnish, it usually amounts to a lot of downtime to clean and flush this out.
With DECON HD, it’s very simple to get these gearboxes cleaned up.
DECON HD have been specifically engineered for those gearbox applications with the higher ISO 150-320 viscosity grades. It will not affect the viscosity of the application nor the oil properties while cleaning the internals of the equipment.
Details & Specifications
How does it work?
Its formulation is based on the patented Solvancer technology which uses Hansen’s solubility principles to increase the solubility of varnish in the system, so it doesn’t stick to the insides and gets dissolved back into the oil. When varnish or deposits are removed, systems usually see a decrease in temperature as varnish would have acted as an insulator in the past. DECON HD will protect the oil from forming varnish producing long term deposit control performance and is specifically for heavier blended oils (ISO VG 150 – 320).

What are the benefits of using DECON HD?
- Extends the life of your oil and helps with elevated gearbox temperature troubleshooting
- Transforms your oil from a consumable to an asset with the ability to remove varnish, carbon and sludge from circulating lubrication systems, especially gearboxes
- No-risk guarantee, does not adversely impact lubricant performance including oxidation stability, anti-wear, gear loading,
demulsibility, foam and air release - Works quickly to dissolve varnish from internal system components; resists re-adhesion when cooled
- Reduces carbon emissions through demand reduction and system flushing not required after use; safe for extended use
- Benign towards in-service oils, seals, paints and coatings commonly used in systems
- Rapid reduction of the oil’s varnish potential as measured by MPC, UC and Particle Counts
Where can DECON HD be used?
DECON HD is suited for gearboxes especially oils within the ISO VG 150-320 range.
