Hydraulic Oils Hydromax HT ECO
Features Formulated from high performance synthetic bio-degradable base fluids, for enhanced performance and environmental protection. Long lasting fluid, provides excellent performance even in the most demanding conditions Non-Toxic formulation Meets hydraulic pump manufacturers specifications Helps protect against wear, rust and corrosion Offers excellent lubricity and load carrying capabilities Reduces friction to help better lubricate Energy saving 3% up to 13% Quick water separation Very clean (NAS 1638 class 3) ISO/DIS 4406; 14/12/09
Benefits; Biodegradability & Fish acute toxicity test (OECD 203) Hydromax HT ECO has a higher biodegradability in comparison with conventional mineral oils. Fulfills the HEPR category according to VDMA 24 568 OECD 301 B 28 days =38,2% 56 days = 53,1% After 56 days platform is reached very little further degradation (0,15% per day) OECD 301 F 28 days = 97,7% Hydromax HT ECO is non toxic Mortality ratio (%) of fish after 24, 48,72, 96 hours of exposure (10 specimen) Final results: EL50-96h is over 1.00/1000 Loading ratio (g/1000g) 0 1,04 Mortality after 24 hours(%) 0 0 Mortality after 48 hours(%) 0 0 Mortality after 72 hours(%) 0 0 Mortality after 96 hours(%) 0 0

Benefits; longer life time Longer life Hydromax HT ECO can reach a lifetime up to 5-6 times the life of conventional hydraulic fluids. Savings are seen on oil changes (price of the oil as well as the labor involved)
Benefits; cleanliness Cleaner oil Hydromax HT ECO has a NAS class of 3, conventional hydraulic fluids have a NAS class of 9. Since the oil is supplied at a much cleaner level, oil filters are polluted less and from the start there are less potential abrasive particles which can cause damage to the hydraulic components. Savings on filters, maintenance and lifetime of the hydraulic components NAS 1638 table ISO/NAS/SAE code comparison Hydromax HT ECO Standard hydraulic oil
Benefits; cleanliness Standard hydraulic oil Hydromax HT ECO
Benefits; Energy savings Energy savings Hydromax HT ECO is made of a special synthetic base oil which contains all the similar type of molecules. Therefore less friction is seen in comparison to conventional hydraulic fluids made from standard mineral oils which contains all sorts of different type of molecules. Lower friction results in a lower operation temperature which again results in a longer life of the oil. Energy savings can be seen in the range of 3% to 13% 3%- 13% less energy consumption results in lower energy cost and less CO2 emission which can be used in a company O2 footprint. Multimeter installed on the hydraulic pump for easy comparison on electrical consumption Lower friction resulting in higher energy efficiency
Benefits; less filter usage, water seperation Less oil filter changes Since Hydromax HT ECO oxidizes less than conventional hydraulic fluids there are less oxidized oil particles which are polluting filters. Hydraulic filters are expensive which results in direct savings. Water separation Hydromax HT Eco has excellent water separation capabilities specially in comparison to conventional hydraulic fluids. This results in a quick separation in case of leakage into the Metal Working Fluid, which allows easy skimming. Savings are seen on less pollution of the metal working fluid
Examples of applications All environmentally sensitive applications Water Locks Marine Off Shore Applications where vegatable & synthetic esters fail Presence of water = hydrolisation Oxidation Short life time Miscibility issues High Performance applications High pressures Filterability issues Water seperation issues High temperature issues Life time issues (oxidation) Energy saving applications Lower friqtion = lower power consumption Hydro power plants Lubrication of hydro power turbines
Hydromax HT ECO Injection moulding equipment Injection Moulding Machines (IMM) Are relatively new First generation had low clamp tonnage Last generation producing large parts like bumpers, panels work with clamp pressures of 8000 tonnes (micro moulding is 10-30 tonnes) Leakage of hydraulic fluid, which can cause unpredictable pressure drops in an IMM. This ruins consistency of operation, causes high levels of reject parts and can cause mold damage. 80 percent of all problems with hydraulic IMMs originate from hydraulic oil contamination Cleanliness is key High pressure resistance Injection Moulding Machines (IMM) The Plastic Injection Molding Industry faces several challenges in selecting hydraulic fluids: High annual cost for most hydraulic fluids Short hydraulic pump life Waste oil disposal costs Clogged or damaged valves & filters and the downtime as a result

Business Case A producer of hydraulic equipment for rescue, marine and industrial applications was looking for a biodegradable products High pressure, high load and extreme temperature variations During a number of years they looked into a more sustainable solution. Tested various types of bio fluids as well as new technology mineral oils. Kept on using conventional mineral oils because they could no find a suitable replacement providing the right technical performance in combination with biodegradability After extensive testing they supply the units Factory Fill with hydromax HT Eco 15 under their private label They also sell aftermarket packaging (small packs)
