The Atlas Copco Roto-Z-Can 20L (part no. 2908-8501-01) is the same mineral-based lubricant as the 5L (2908-8503-00) and 209L (2908-8500-00) versions we also supply — formulated for Atlas Copco’s ZR, ZT, ZA, and ZE oil-free screw compressors. Service intervals differ by compressor power: 8,000 hours for units under 55 kW, extending to 16,000 hours for units above 55 kW, within an ambient range of 0°C to 50°C.
This 20L size suits mid-sized reservoirs or facilities doing full service changes without committing to a full 209L drum.

Compatibility When Switching Oil Brands
Before Switching Oil Brands
Different lubricant lines use different base oil chemistries (mineral, PAO synthetic ,PAG synthetic),and mixing incompatible types can
cause sludging,emulsification,or seal swelling.If you’re switching from a different brand or type,confirm the base oil chemistry matches —or plan for a system flush before introducing a new type.
Flushing When Changing Oil Type
Do You Need to Flush the System?
If you’re switching between oil types (e.g.,mineral to synthetic,or between different synthetic chemistries),a system flush is generally
recommended to remove residual oil and prevent cross-contamination.Continuing to top up with a different oil type without flushing can gradually degrade lubrication performance.
Common Questions
Can this oil be mixed with other brands or types?
We recommend against mixing different oil chemistries (mineral,PAO,PAG synthetic)unless confirmed compatible —mixing can cause sludging or reduced lubrication performance.If switching brands,a system flush is the safer option.
How long does one container last?
This depends on your compressor’s oil capacity and running hours — send us your compressor model and typical duty cycle,and we
can help estimate consumption.
How long can this oil be stored before use?
Unopened containers stored properly (sealed, indoors ,stable temperature)retain quality well.Once opened,we recommend using the oil within a reasonable timeframe rather than keeping it as long-term backup stock.
Are these genuine Atlas Copco lubricants?
Yes.Parts are sourced through Atlas Copco distributor channels.
Is this compatible with my compressor if I don't know the exact oil currently in use?
Send us a photo of your compressor’s nameplate or your current oil container label,and we’ll help confirm the right match before you order.
Do you inspect parts before shipment?
Yes. We provide full photos and video of the actual item before shipment, and confirm everything is correct with you prior to dispatch.
What shipping options are available?
If you have your own freight forwarder, we can ship to them directly. If not, we can provide shipping options based on your preference.
