BIODRAULIC

HEAVY DUTY BIODEGRADABLE HYDRAULIC OIL

ISO 32, 46, 68

No. 309


Biodraulic hydraulic fluid is a premium quality, highly oxidation stable, anti-wear lubricant. This vegetable based product has been formulated to meet and exceed the requirements set forth by most hydraulic pump manufacturers, and is stable enough to be used in both high temperature
and high pressure hydraulic systems.  Even with these elevated performance characteristics, Biodraulic satisfies the criteria for ultimate biodegradability (PW1) and non-toxicity.  Biodraulilc has a unique rust and oxidation inhibiting system that assures the highest level of rust and
oxidation protection available. It is a clear choice for use in applications on or near water. Biodraulic can be used in most applications that require an R&O or AW hydraulic fluid, and will provide environmental safety without sacrificing performance.
 
Biodraulic meets the definition of a bio-based lubricant as outlined in section 9001 of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act (FSRIA) of 2002 and qualifies for preferred procurement by U. S. Federal Agencies as set forth in FSRIA Section 9002.   
 
PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS:
 
•  Ultimate biodegradability
Biodraulic is a ASTM D5864 PW1 rated hydraulic fluid.  It exhibits the highest level of biodegradability in the industry. (>60% degraded at 28 days.)
•  Non Toxic
Biodraulic  passes  the  LC-50  criteria  adopted  by  the  United  States  EPA  and  the  United States Fish and Wildlife Service.          
•   Oxidation resistant  
Oxidation  inhibitors  and  premium  quality  base  oils  combine  to  form  a  product  with outstanding resistance to oxidation and provide the maximum protection against varnish formation at both high and low temperatures.  This feature will allow for drain intervals commensurate with conventional oils.
•    Provides excellent anti-wear protection
Special  anti-wear,  extreme  pressure  and  friction  reducing  additives  provide  the  highest level of protection against wear and scuffing in all types of vane, piston, and gear pumps used in both low and high pressure hydraulic systems.
•  Superior rust protection
Inhibitors protect both steel and yellow metal surfaces against rust and corrosion.  Vastly outperforms other Bio-based fluids.
•  Demulsibility
Designed to separate rapidly from water.
•  High foam resistance
Foam  inhibitors  provide  a  high  level  of  foam  resistance  to  prevent  pump  starvation  and damage.
•  High viscosity index  
To insure viscosity stability.
•  Superior filterability
New technology allows for better filterability and no freeze capability previously unseen in vegetable based fluids.

 

 


TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:
       
Recommended  for  use  as  a  premium  anti-wear  hydraulic  fluid  in  all  types  of  vane,  gear,  and
piston pumps and to protect against environmental issues in many industries:

SUMMARY:

Hydraulic systems are constantly subjected to adverse conditions such as water, heat, high pressures, and long operating intervals.  Each of these factors affects the ability of the hydraulic system to provide maximum output when needed. Bearing, pump, valve, gear, motor and cylinder wear are very common.  Gum and varnish buildup lead to poor system performance.  Oil deterioration and rapid oxidation of conventional bio based fluids results not only in
excessive wear, but frequent overhauls, rancid smells and poor filterability.  Deterioration of seals and O-rings lead to increased oil consumption.  Biodraulic hydraulic fluid is formulated to greatly reduce these problems and provide maximum environmental safety.  Spill and leakage issues are a thing of the past.
