Daphne FW 68DA (the manufacturer’s full name is DAPHNE HERMETIC OIL FW 68DA) is a hermetic compressor refrigeration oil from Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd. The grade is identified in ordering by the name printed on the drum together with the manufacturer’s part number 3Y1BA019JK, and it is supplied in a 200 L drum. It is the charge for hermetic compressors whose documentation calls for this DAPHNE designation, so the match is made from the compressor nameplate and the service manual rather than from a reseller listing.
We supply this grade as the original Idemitsu Daphne product or as an equivalent blended at our own plant in Foshan, China. There is no fixed minimum order — it is confirmed per order, because a single drum and a full container load are both workable and the figure moves with the quantity, the pack size and the destination. Delivery is on any Incoterms 2020 term — EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DDP and every other rule — and payment is on any commonly used method, including T/T, L/C and PayPal. Send the compressor model, the refrigerant and the grade on the nameplate and we will confirm the match before quoting.
The specification, the price terms, the payment terms and the documents are the same for every buyer, and they are quoted without a site visit. The minimum order is deliberately left open, because it is judged case by case: the quantity, the pack size, the shipping terms and the container load all move it, so a single drum and a full container load are both workable and neither is treated as the normal case. Send the quantity, the destination port and whether your own brand goes on the drum, and those three turn the table below into a firm quotation.
| Item | Terms for Daphne FW 68DA |
|---|---|
| Minimum order quantity | Not a fixed figure — confirmed per order, because it is judged case by case: the grade, the pack size, the quantity, the shipping terms and the container load all move it, so a single can and a full container load are both workable |
| Payment terms | Any commonly used payment method — T/T, L/C, PayPal and every other option — confirmed with the order |
| Price terms | Any Incoterms 2020 term — EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DDP and every other rule — quoted against your destination port |
| Supply ability | 1,000 pieces per year on this grade |
| Origin | China or original brand product |
| Packing | 200 L drum, as packed by the manufacturer. Other pack sizes are quoted on request against the quantity being used. |
| Grade identification | The grade name printed on the drum, FW 68DA, together with the manufacturer’s part number 3Y1BA019JK. Both are quoted back on the order confirmation, so the drum that arrives can be checked against the drum that was ordered. |
| Who buys this grade | Distributors and resellers who stock refrigeration oil, HVACR and refrigeration service companies, and buyers who need private-label or own-brand packing. Wholesale and bulk orders are the norm; single drums and trial quantities are also supplied. |
| Matching the oil to the compressor | Send the compressor model, the refrigerant and the grade shown on the nameplate. The nameplate grade is the reference, because a hermetic compressor is charged with the lubricant its maker built it around, and a top-up is made with the same oil the system was charged with. |
| Own-brand equivalent | An equivalent is blended at our own plant in Foshan, China. Tell us the application and the grade on the nameplate and we will confirm which of our own grades matches before it is quoted. |
| Documents issued with the order | Technical data sheet, safety data sheet, and a certificate of analysis for the delivered batch |
| Handling and storage | Keep the drum sealed and out of direct sunlight, and close it again immediately after a top-up. Refrigeration oil picks up moisture from the air, and a drum left open in a humid plant carries that moisture into the compressor. |
Price terms and payment terms are stated in full rather than limited to the two or three that appear on a single invoice.
The final word on fitness is the compressor maker’s own charge instruction, and it is the nameplate that carries it.
A buyer searching for FW 68DA usually already knows the grade — it is written on the compressor or in the service manual — and the problem is finding a supplier who will ship that exact designation rather than something close to it. The second problem is paperwork: a refrigeration oil that arrives without its technical data sheet and its batch certificate cannot be booked into a maintenance record. The third is the pack: a 200 L drum is the right unit for a plant and the wrong unit for a single service call.
We answer the three together. The grade is confirmed against the compressor documentation before the quotation is issued, the documents travel with the order rather than after it, and the packing is quoted for the quantity actually being used.
The other grades in the same DAPHNE line are listed further down, so a buyer holding the wrong designation can see what the neighbouring one is before sending an enquiry.
Four steps, and none of them needs a site visit.
If the nameplate is missing or unreadable, send a photograph of the compressor and the system details and we will work from that.
The DAPHNE HERMETIC OIL line covers more than one family, and the grades below are the ones we hold a page for. Each of those pages carries the manufacturer’s published data for that grade.
The FV and FVC grades on this site are polyvinyl ether (PVE) oils for HFC refrigerants, and their pages carry the manufacturer’s viscosity, pour point and flash point for each grade.
A hermetic compressor is charged with the lubricant its maker built it around, and the oil that goes back into it is the oil the documentation names. FW 68DA is that designation here: it is printed on the drum, it is what the service manual and the nameplate quote, and it is what the order is checked against.
That is why the part number is quoted back as well. A grade name can be read off a drum in a photograph, but the part number 3Y1BA019JK is what a stores department books against, and matching both removes the ambiguity that a grade name on its own leaves.
A 200 L drum suits a plant with a maintenance schedule, and it is the wrong unit for a single service call, where the drum is opened, partly used and then stored. The pack decides how the oil is handled, and handling decides how much moisture and dirt reach the compressor.
So the pack is quoted with the oil rather than after it. Tell us the quantity used over the service interval and the packing follows from that.
A grade designation only means something against the equipment it was specified for. Two compressors that look alike can be charged with different lubricant families, and a drum chosen from a grade number alone is a guess with a part number attached.
The compressor model, the refrigerant and the nameplate grade are enough to confirm the match. Where they point to a different DAPHNE designation, we say so before the order rather than after the drum has been opened.

| Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd. — corporate site | The manufacturer of the DAPHNE HERMETIC OIL line; the brand and the product line named on this page. |
This oil is manufactured and supplied by Guangzhou Qishanr Technologies Co., Ltd., trading as the brand QISHANR. The company is based in Foshan, Guangdong, adjacent to Guangzhou Port, and has been producing lubricants for more than 10 years from its own blending plant. That plant runs at an annual capacity of 6,000 tonnes, which is what allows us to hold stock on the grades we list and quote firm lead times rather than promising on behalf of a third party.
Refrigeration oils are the core of the business, but they are not the whole plant. The same lines produce general industrial lubricants, so a mixed enquiry that covers both refrigeration oils and ordinary industrial grades can be quoted, packed and shipped together instead of being split across suppliers.
This is not the full range. Specialised ester base oils and lubricant additives are produced in-house as well, which is the reason the synthetic ester grades can be specified to a target rather than bought off a shelf. If the grade you need is not listed above, send the specification or the product you are replacing and we will confirm whether we produce it.
Long-term partners get pricing that reflects a stable manufacturing base rather than a trading margin, and the same technical contact stays with the account from grade selection through to repeat orders.
Send the grade and the part number, the compressor model, the refrigerant and the quantity, together with the destination port. We will confirm the match, the pack and the documents before quoting, and there is no fixed minimum order to work around.
