Hydraulic Fluids
Materials and seals used in these valves
are compatible with:
Antiwear petroleum oils L-HM. . . . . . . . .
Non-alkyl based
phosphate esters L-HFD. . . . . . . . . . . . .
The extreme operating range is 13 to 500
cSt (70 to 2300 SUS) but the
recommended running range is 13 to
54 cSt (70 to 250 SUS). For further
technical information about fluids see
catalog 920.
Contamination Control
Requirements
Recommendations on contamination
control methods and the selection of
products to control fluid condition are
included in Vickers publication 9132 or
561, “Vickers Guide to Systemic
Contamination Control”. The book also
includes information on the Vickers
concept of “ProActive Maintenance”.
The following recommendations are
based on ISO cleanliness levels at
2 mm, 5 mm and 15 mm.
For products in this catalog the
recommended levels are:
0 to 210 bar (3000 psi) 18/16/13. . . . . .
210 to 315 bar
(3000 to 4500 psi) 17/15/12. . . . . . . . . .
Temperatures
For petroleum oil:
Min. –20_C (–4_F). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Max. +60_C (140_F). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
For water-containing fluids:
Min. +10_C (50_F). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Max. +54_C (130_F). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
For other fluids where limits are outside
those of petroleum oil, consult fluid
manufacturer or Vickers representative.
Whatever the actual temperature range,
ensure that viscosities stay within those
specified under “Hydraulic Fluids”.
