DENSO ND-OIL 11 is a Polyol Ester (POE) compressor oil engineered for electrically driven scroll compressors in hybrid and electric vehicles. DENSO Corporation manufactures it in Japan for high-voltage A/C systems requiring both R134a and R1234yf refrigerant compatibility.
DENSO ND-OIL 11 is a POE-based synthetic lubricant developed specifically for the electric scroll compressors found in EV and hybrid vehicle air conditioning systems. Unlike PAG oils used in conventional belt-driven compressors, a POE formulation is electrically non-conductive, which is a mandatory safety requirement when the compressor is powered directly from a high-voltage battery system.
The safety data sheet published by the manufacturer gives a kinematic viscosity greater than 20.5 mm²/s at 40 °C. It is thermally stable across the operating temperature range of modern electric drive systems and resists moisture absorption, which prevents acid formation and internal corrosion. DENSO OEM part numbers for ND-OIL 11 include 042198-0080 and 042198-0130; the Toyota cross-reference is 08885-09127.
DENSO ND-OIL 11 is specified for electrically driven scroll compressors in battery electric vehicles (BEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and full hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). DENSO supplies electric A/C compressors to Toyota, Lexus, and other OEM platforms; ND-OIL 11 is the designated lubricant for those compressors.
When an electric scroll compressor is replaced or serviced on a BEV or HEV platform, ND-OIL 11 supplies the correct POE charge. The 250 ml can covers a standard single-vehicle oil fill.
For electric compressors operating with R1234yf refrigerant — increasingly common in new EV platforms — ND-OIL 11 is compatible where the compressor manufacturer specifies a POE grade.
After refrigerant contamination or compressor failure on a hybrid vehicle, a full system flush followed by an ND-OIL 11 recharge restores the correct oil specification for the electric drive unit.
Where a service document lists Toyota 08885-09127 or DENSO 042198-0130, ND-OIL 11 (042198-0080) is the equivalent 250 ml POE compressor oil. Confirm the compressor model before substituting between pack sizes.
Before you order: confirm the compressor is electrically driven — ND-OIL 11 is a POE oil for electric scroll compressors only. Conventional belt-driven compressors use a different ND-OIL grade. See the ND-OIL selection table below.
Electric A/C compressors operate at high voltage (typically 200–400 V DC) and draw current directly from the traction battery. The compressor oil is in contact with the motor windings, so it must not conduct electricity. PAG oils, which are hygroscopic and moderately conductive, are not suitable for this duty. POE oil has inherently high dielectric strength, is compatible with the motor insulation materials, and does not compromise the electrical isolation required by the vehicle's high-voltage safety system.
Using the wrong oil type in an electric compressor is a safety and warranty risk. The compressor OEM specifies ND-OIL 11 precisely because its POE chemistry meets both the lubrication and electrical insulation requirements of the electric drive unit.

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.
The grade designations, part numbers and compatibility information on this page follow the manufacturer documents listed below.

Request ND-OIL 11 QuoteDENSO ND-OIL 11 is a POE (Polyol Ester) synthetic compressor oil made in Japan by DENSO Corporation. It is specified for electrically driven scroll compressors in hybrid and electric vehicles, with compatibility for both R134a and R1234yf refrigerants.
Electric compressors draw power from a high-voltage battery and the oil contacts the motor windings directly. POE oil has high dielectric strength and will not conduct electricity, which is a safety requirement. PAG oils are more conductive and are not approved for electric compressor use.
Yes. DENSO ND-OIL 11 is compatible with both R134a and R1234yf refrigerants when used in electrically driven scroll compressors. For conventional belt-driven compressors running R1234yf, use ND-OIL 12 (PAG 46) instead.
The Toyota OEM equivalent is part number 08885-09127. The DENSO part numbers are 042198-0080 (250 ml) and 042198-0130. All three refer to the same POE compressor oil specification.
No. ND-OIL 11 is formulated for electrically driven scroll compressors. Conventional belt-driven compressors use PAG-based grades — ND-OIL 8 (PAG 46) for swash plate types or ND-OIL 9 (PAG 100) for through vane and scroll types with R134a.
For the PAG 100 grade used in conventional R134a through vane and scroll compressors, see DENSO ND-OIL 9 PAG 100 compressor oil. For PAG refrigeration oil in industrial refrigeration duty, the Frick PureOil #12B PAG compressor oil covers industrial-scale applications.
