Gaasmäärded

Gaasmäärded is a term used in Estonian to describe lubricants specifically designed for use in gas-powered engines. These lubricants are formulated to withstand the higher operating temperatures and pressures characteristic of gas engines, which often differ significantly from those found in diesel or gasoline engines. The precise composition of gaasmäärded can vary depending on the specific type of gas engine, such as those running on natural gas, propane, or biogas.

The primary function of gaasmäärded is to reduce friction between moving parts, thereby minimizing wear and tear and extending the lifespan of the engine. They also serve to dissipate heat, preventing overheating, and to seal combustion chambers, ensuring efficient power generation. Additionally, these lubricants often contain additives that help to prevent deposit formation and corrosion, which can be issues in gas engines due to the combustion byproducts of various fuel gases.

The selection of the correct gaasmäärded is crucial for optimal engine performance and longevity. Using the wrong type of lubricant can lead to premature engine failure, reduced efficiency, and increased emissions. Manufacturers of gas engines typically provide specific recommendations regarding the type and grade of lubricant to be used. Maintenance schedules often include regular checks and changes of the gaasmäärded to ensure the engine remains in good working order.
