A lubricating oil composition for refrigerators including (A) a base oil containing as a main component a polyol ester compound obtained from a polyhydric alcohol selected from among pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, trimethylolpropane and neopentyl glycol and a C4 to C20 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid, (B) a phosphorus-based additive comprised of a phosphoric acid triester and/or a phosphorous acid triester, and (C) at least one acid scavenger selected from among glycidyl esters, glycidyl ethers and α-olefin oxides.The lubricating oil composition is applicable to such refrigerators that use a refrigerant having a specific structure, such as an unsaturated fluorinated hydrocarbon compound, and being usable in current car air conditioner systems, and has excellent compatibility with the refrigerant, good sealing properties, capability of imparting a low coefficient of friction to sliding members and, yet, excellent stability.
