CASTROL Anvol SWX 46

Description

The Castrol Anvol™ SWX grades are HFDU synthetic polyol ester type hydraulic fluids for use in applications that require

a high degree of lubricity and fire resistance according to Factory Mutual Category 1. Anvol SWX products are outstanding

in their category in providing a safe working environment and improved system reliability.

Application

Formulated to work in high pressure hydraulic systems up to 7500psi Anvol SWX provides all types of hydraulic pumps

with protection against wear equivalent to that of mineral oils.

Anvol SWX is designed to combine HFDU fire resistance performance with superior system reliability and a reduced

tendency to form varnish or sludge in valves, pipes and reservoirs. It also provides greater resistance to water by offering

high levels of corrosion protection.

Even in the harshest steel mill environment, Anvol SWX provides safety, protection and reliability. This has the added

value of reducing failures and minimising unscheduled downtime.

Anvol SWX is used in areas of the manufacturing industry were there is high risk of fire such as hot strip mills, coil

handling facilities, pipe mills and continuous casters. The risk is minimised by the high fire point and the low heat of

combustion of Anvol SWX.

Anvol SWX grades are fully compatible with nitrile (NBR), hydrogenated NBR and fluropocarbon rubbers (FKM). The Seal

Compatibiltiy Index is comparable to mineral oils.

Anvol SWX grades meet the requirements of: Factory Mutual Category 1

Advantages

High fire point provides superior fire resistance characteristics which creates a safer working environment and

greater equipment protection.

Anvol SWX is shear stable and fire resistant properties are maintained during use.

Advanced corrosion inhibition protects ferrous components from residual water and leads to extended

equipment life and reduced downtime.

Excellent resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation reduces sludges, varnish and prevents valve sticking.

This ensures longer system life and longer drain periods.

Good antiwear performance gives excellent wear protection and reduces downtime from unscheduled

maintenance.
