Fire Resistant Hydraulic Fluids

Product catalog summary
Overview
Castrol offers a comprehensive range of fire-resistant hydraulic fluids (FRHF) designed to minimize fire risks, prolong hydraulic system life, and enhance performance. These products are supported by global expertise and local sales teams to ensure optimal manufacturing performance.

Product Selection
Choosing the right FRHF involves balancing fire safety, pump wear protection, and operating pressure. For moderate fire risk, water glycol (HFC) products like Castrol Anvol WG 46 are recommended. For lower fire risk, polyol ester (HFDU) products like Castrol Anvol SWX FM are suitable.

Product Range
Castrol Anvol WG 46: A water glycol fluid suitable for systems up to 3,000 psi, offering excellent fire resistance, anti-wear performance, and corrosion protection.
Castrol Anvol SWX FM: A polyol ester fluid for high-pressure systems up to 7,500 psi, providing superior fire resistance, oxidation resistance, and wear protection.

Quality and Reliability
Castrol emphasizes the importance of maintaining fire-resistant properties and viscosity in HFDU fluids. The Anvol SWX FM range demonstrates superior performance in maintaining these properties over time compared to products containing polymeric materials.

Performance Comparison
Charts indicate that Castrol products maintain higher viscosity and fire resistance over time compared to competitors, ensuring better pump performance and system reliability.
