Hydraulic Fluids
The C2 and C5G(V) models can be
used with hydraulic oils, water-in-oil
emulsions and water glycols. Add prefix
“F3” to model designation when
phosphate ester (not alkyl-based) are to
be used.
DT8P1 models can be used with all
of the above mentioned fluids.
The extreme operating viscosity range is
from 13 to 860 cSt (70 to 4000 SUS) but
the recommended range is 13 to 54 cSt
(70 to 245 SUS).
For further information about fluids see
leaflet 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:
Up to 210 bar (3000 psi) 20/18/15. . . . .
Above 210 bar (3000 psi) 20/18/15. . . .

* To obtain optimum service life from both
fluid and hydraulic system 65_C (150_F)
normally is the maximum temperature
except for water-containing fluids.
For synthetic fluids consult manufacturer
or Vickers representative where limits
are outside those for petroleum oil.
Whatever the actual temperature range,
ensure that viscosities stay within the
limits specified in the “Hydraulic Fluids”
section.
