3 We are a regular feature in your production facility and are popular with your suppliers. HYDAC components and systems can be found in all areas of automobile production, including machine tools, presses, industrial part washers, cooling lubricant systems, transmission and engine test benches and hydraulic and lubrication systems. Efficient system solutions from HYDAC. HYDAC's system solutions and expertise are impressive in terms of our energy-saving technology. Frequency-controlled drive solutions, leak-free valves and low noise levels are just a few of our development goals. Fluid conditioning and fluid monitoring. For over five decades, we have been working on solutions to extend service life and protect components. HYDAC is responsible for a large proportion of the cooling, energy storage and filtration of fluids used in production, including hydraulic, lubrication and testing oils, cleaning fluids and cooling lubricants. Filtering, cooling and fluid monitoring are key to increasing the life expectancy of fluids and thus to extending the service life of machinery and systems. For example, a 10 % increase in fluid temperature reduces service life by half. Energy-efficient models can be recognised by their green HYDAC ENERGY SAVING logo. 3

4 Product optimisation for energy effciency HYDAC provides a great variety of energy-efficient products and solutions that can extend fluid service life, reduce energy and optimise new and existing systems. For example, using our compact power units with start-stop technology and leak-free poppet valves can reduce energy consumption by %. Further saving potential is offered by our temperature-controlled cooling systems, variable-speed drive systems, differential pressure-optimised coaxial valves, high-pressure blocks with filtration and frequency controlled pumps, in addition to the newly developed Optimicron filter elements. This element technology reduces differential pressure by up to 30 %. With its highly diverse product range, HYDAC has the perfect solution to any challenge when it comes to ensuring energy-efficient production and to reducing your costs. HYDAC products for energy efficiency: Hydraulics: Start-stop power units Speed-controlled power units Frequency-controlled power units Cooling lubricant: Differential pressure-optimised coaxial valves Process Booster Block (PBB) (high-pressure block with filtration and frequency-controlled pump) Coolers: Fluid/water cooling systems Fluid/air cooling systems Refrigeration cooling systems Filtration: Differential pressure-optimised filters with Stat-Free technology Fluid conditioning with the perfect strategy For a system to be efficient and reliable, it needs a sophisticated filtration strategy and continuous online monitoring, combined with temperature-controlled cooling. Only if all factors are addressed can the condition of the fluids be improved in the long term and operating costs reduced (cost reductions of up to 30 % are not uncommon). Accordingly, HYDAC provides the complete package of condition monitoring, filters, coolers and systems for detecting fluid stresses and rectifying them. You can plan service work in advance, avoid unnecessary costs for maintenance and repair and benefit from optimised costs for system maintenance. One product that prevents fluid stress is the Optimicron element with Stat-Free technology for the prevention of electrostatic discharge. If oils are subjected to electrostatic discharge, they age more quickly and in the long run systems become damaged. The VarnishMitigation Unit (VMU), which removes oil-ageing products from the fluid and the CM-Expert for online monitoring of production systems also increase the service life of the fluids used. HYDAC products for fluid conditioning: Filtration and fluid conditioning: High-quality element technology (with Stat-Free technology) for almost any application VarnishMitigation Unit (VMU) Cooling: Optimised and temperature-controlled cooling systems Measurement and analysis systems: CM-Expert (sensors for solid particle and metallic contamination, water saturation and oil condition sensors) Laboratory equipment 4

Technical cleanliness Improved quality in manufactured parts Increased system availability Reduction in part shortages / pre-delivery failures Technical cleanliness Monitoring throughout production process A Service Spare parts System availability Service Spare parts System availability Worldwide service and spare parts Customised service solutions Rapid and reliable on-site support Integrated system approach increases system availability 6

7 Technical cleanliness for quality assurance As power units (motors and transmissions) and systems become more powerful and warranties increase in scope, cleanliness management is facing increasing challenges. To achieve high quality standards and to work effectively, preventive process control is necessary. As a specialist in technical cleanliness, HYDAC can offer you professional support and complete solutions for setting up your own lab. HYDAC provides individual extraction units, help in lab planning and even complete laboratories. We also offer our clients an analysis service, carried out on contract in our own labs. Our team of experts, represented worldwide, guarantees compliance with current industrial standards (ISO or VDA volume 19) in addition to company standards and customer specifications, if desired. With its mobile laboratory vehicles, equipped with cutting edge extraction units and analysis equipment, HYDAC is able to take fluid and component samples and carry out process chain analysis directly on site. In a process chain analysis, we investigate the sources of critical particles. We then tailor optimisation proposals and filter designs to this analysis for existing and new machining centres as well as any cleaning and testing systems that the customer intends to purchase. HYDAC products and services for technical cleanliness: Complete labs Extraction units Lab services in our laboratories or at your premises Process chain analyses Flushing rigs Filter technology and filtration concepts Worldwide service The HYDAC Servicenter can provide you and your partners with a complete package of services. We have the right equipment and the appropriate team for any application. After detailed consultation, HYDAC will compile the service package that best suits your needs. With our fleet of service vehicles, we can help you with repair work, professional maintenance and inspections on site, extending the service life of hydraulic systems, lubricating systems and electro-hydraulic controls. In turn, this guarantees more profitable system availability throughout your production line and, in the longer term, significant cost savings. With over 45 subsidiaries and 500 sales and service partners, HYDAC can guarantee fast delivery of spare parts in addition to providing worldwide service. HYDAC is a partner that you can rely on at all times. HYDAC services for worldwide service: Inspection Servicing Maintenance Repair Calibration Equipment rental Training 7
