Is the No. 46 lubricating oil used in ordinary centrifugal pumps the same as No. 46 turbine oil?
It is recommended to check the relevant physical and chemical properties of the oil based on its name code; one match is sufficient. Otherwise, it’s not allowed.
plumber； It refers to anti-wear hydraulic oil with a viscosity grade of 46; due to its different dynamic viscosity, it cannot be replaced by ordinary engine oil. However, appropriate adjustments can be made depending on the operating temperature (for example, grade 46 is suitable in summer, while grade 32 can be used in winter); there is little difference between them. N46 is sometimes referred to as N46 light-metal free hydraulic oil, and at other times as 46# rust-resistant turbine oil (also known as steam turbine oil). Centrifugal pumps can use turbine oil.
For specific questions, consult the manufacturer; ask them directly

Ordinary centrifugal pumps use 46# mechanical oil, which has poor performance; the specifications of 46# turbine oil are better than those of mechanical oil, making it a perfect substitute. The two oils are different; the higher one can only be used in place of the lower one
It should be the same; if unsure, you can ask the oil manufacturer
