Here at work we use Dex II as the fluid in drilling compressors.  Dex III 
foams a LOT sooner than Dex II and therefore looses heat transfer and
lubrication sooner.  One measure is to have a defoaming agent added to the
Dex III, but we have found that the Dex II still performs better when all
variables are considered.  Tex.
