Check for reduced system response, noise, elevated operating temperatures, or visible oil colour change. However, the ideal approach is routine oil analysis for contamination, oxidation, and wear metals. For a more specific understanding of your hydraulic equipment requirements, consult your machine manual or contact our technical department for professional advice.
While technically possible to mix with the same mineral-based hydraulic oils, we do not recommend mixing brands or types. If an oil change is necessary, drain and flush the system entirely beforehand.
Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Containers not in use should be closed to prevent water contamination. Bulk storage requires regular testing of water and contaminants.
In comparison to viscosities such as 46 or 68, this oil is less viscous at lower temperatures and provides faster system response. It is lower, however, in protection at extremely high temperatures. See it as selecting the proper tool for where you are working.
While exact intervals differ based on operating conditions and manufacturer’s specifications, common change intervals are 2,000 to 5,000 operating hours. Regular oil analysis can help determine the best schedule to change fluids in your equipment.
It performs excellently at low ambient temperatures and is thus perfect for outdoor equipment used in normal UK weather conditions. For very cold operations, though, or equipment to be used under severe winter conditions, you may wish to use an even lower viscosity grade.
This oil provides wear protection with excellent low-temperature flow properties. It guarantees corrosion protection, and system cleanliness even during prolonged operating conditions.
The “32” refers to the viscosity of the oil – it’s lighter and more free-flowing than heavier weights. It makes it a better option for systems operating in colder climates or requiring a faster response. It’s the same as choosing the right weight of oil for your particular hydraulic system.
This hydraulic fluid is a multi-purpose fluid designed for industrial equipment and hydraulic systems that are exposed to cold to moderate temperatures. It can be used in manufacturing equipment, mobile hydraulics, and precision equipment where the requirement is lower viscosity oil.
