Hydraulic fluid EL 4000 series

Design high performance hydraulic fluids with excellent environmental profile Recent trends in hydraulic systems are putting further strain on hydraulic fluids : Smaller oil sumps increase oil exposure to heat, foam, air and water entrapment Increasing pump discharge pressures generate stronger wear phenomena; Finer filter pore size requires better cleanliness and less insoluble oxidation products; Improved energy efficiency implies better shear stability and higher VI; Use of lower environmental impact products induces formulation restrictions; Fire safety is a growing concern. ADVANTAGES AND BENEFITS Inherent friction modification and anti-wear performance Excellent thermo-oxidative stability High viscosity index Low volatility High level of biodegradability and renewable carbon contents Excellent pump protection Increased lifetime, delivering dry TOST performance of more than 7000 h Reduced need for shear unstable polymers High flash and fire points, bringing improved fire safety Suitable for the formulation of hydraulic fluids compliant with the latest environmental standards (European Ecolabel, Vessel General Permit, USDA Biopreferred…)
