Hydraulic oil is a vital component in hydraulic power packs, serving multiple functions such as energy transmission, lubrication, and cooling.
- Design: Hydraulic oils are typically formulated from mineral oils, synthetic oils, or a blend of both, combined with various additives to enhance performance. The key components include:
-
Base Oils: The primary component, which can be mineral-based, synthetic, or a combination. Mineral oils are widely used due to their cost-effectiveness and availability.
-
Additives: These are incorporated to improve specific properties:
- Anti-Wear Agents: Protect components from wear and tear.
- Corrosion Inhibitors: Prevent rust and corrosion.
- Oxidation Inhibitors: Enhance the oil’s resistance to oxidation, prolonging its service life.
- Viscosity Index Improvers: Maintain consistent viscosity across a range of temperatures.
- Demulsifiers: Facilitate the separation of water from oil.
-
- Applications: Hydraulic oils are essential in various applications, including:
- Hydraulic Power Packs: Transmit power to hydraulic systems, ensuring efficient operation.
- Industrial Machinery: Provide lubrication and cooling in manufacturing equipment.
- Construction Equipment: Facilitate movement and operation of heavy machinery.
- Agricultural Machinery: Support the functionality of tractors and harvesters.
- Configuration: 1.05 US Gallon / 4 liters
