Description:

Biodegradable fire resistant hydraulic fluid. 

Applications:

• HYDRANSAFE HFDU 46 is an ester-base biodegradable and fire-resistant, high-performance hydraulic fluid.
• HYDRANSAFE HFDU 46 is recommended for hydraulic equipment operating in locations comprising a fire risk such as iron and steel works (coking plants, blast furnaces, continuous casting), mines, etc… The use of HYDRANSAFE HFDU 46 lessens the serious risks presented by recourse to a mineral oil on the occasion of rupture of a hose or when a leak gives rise to oil mist, in the immediate vicinity of a flame, a part in the process of melting or a switch cupboard.
• HYDRANSAFE HFDU 46 is especially recommended when there is the possibility of contamination of waters : offshore, mines. 

Advantages:

• With its considerable fire resistance properties must be be associated its exceptional lubricating properties which guarantee a substantial reduction in wear and therefore a longer service life of the hydraulic components.
• High flash point and high spontaneous ignition temperature.
• Low pour-point providing goood performances at low temperature.
• Very high natural viscosity index guaranteeing a viscosity constantly adapted to the temperature range in which the fluid must be used.
• Very good anticorrosion properties in relation to ferrous and non-ferrous metals making up a hydraulic circuit.
• Very good antioxidation power : enhanced service life.
• The product does not represent a danger to health and is biodegradable.
• Limit temperature of use 120°C.
