BP Energol SHF-HV 46

Description

The BP Energol SHF-HV hydraulic oil range of premium high viscosity index lubricants are based on the latest stabilised zinc additive technology.

Application

Energol SHF-HV contains a shear stable VI improver which helps maintain the viscosity characteristics of the product over a wide temperature range even during prolonged use. The VI Improver also imparts a very low pour point which enables the product to be used in very cold environments. Energol SHF-HV exhibits excellent

corrosion and wear protection as well as outstanding thermal and oxidative stability. In addition, Energol SHF-HV has excellent hydrolytic stability and separates rapidly from water contamination upon standing.

These grades are intended for two main types of duty :

• Outdoor plant likely to operate in wide ranges of temperature - such as machinery subjected to cold start up conditions and high temperature continuous running. Examples include off-highway and marine applications.

• Indoor manufacturing equipment that incorporates control systems requiring a hydraulic fluid whose viscosity change with temperature is minimal. Examples include precision machine tools.

The Energol SHF-HV range is fully compatible with the elastomers materials commonly used for static and dynamic seals, such as nitrile, silicone and fluropolymers.

Energol SHF-HV is classified as follows:

DIN classification - HVLP

ISO 6743/4 - Hydraulic Oils Type HV

Energol SHF-HV grades meet the requirements of:

DIN 51524 Part 3

Cincinnati Milacron (P 68-69-70)

Denison HF-0 & HF-2

US Steel 126 & 127

Eaton (formally Vickers) I-286-S & M-2950-S

Advantages

• High viscosity index and low pour point enables the product to be used over a wide temperature range

• Good shear stability means no excessive loss in viscosity due to mechanical shearing.

• Excellent antiwear performance provides extended wear protection for hydraulic pumps. Reduced down time due to unscheduled maintenance and savings from reduced replacement part costs.

• Low deposit formation and longer oil life provides an overall reduction in lubricant costs and used oil disposal costs.

• Excellent water separation and hydrolytic stability means reduced down time through prolonged lubricant life and increased equipment reliability.

• Good filterability gives a cleaner system with less frequent filter changes.
