Hydraulics & Pneumatics July/August 2022

PANOLIN offers expert technical support and advice worldwide and holds significant stocks of key grades within the UK and worldwide at strategic locations. The company is happy to provide advice on selecting the right product for specific applications, seal compatibility, flushing procedures and miscibility and offers analysis an analysis service for used biodegradable lubricants to support customers’ planned maintenance programs. Protecting the environment and reducing carbon emissions are values shared by companies operating in an increasing number of industrial and marine sectors from offshore energy, subsea and construction plant, to port infrastructure, marine and dredging. Within ports the lock gates, passenger gangways and RO-RO systems are key applications where the hydraulic systems require a high performance, highly biodegradable, long-life hydraulic fluid. Selecting high performance Environmentally Acceptable Lubricants (EAL) for hydraulic applications can help customers meet sustainability targets. PANOLIN SPRINT Hydraulic fluid – readily biodegradable, synthetic esters Environmentally Considerate Lubricant (ECL)/ Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL) Features and benefits • Fully synthetic, environmentally friendly and readily biodegradable hydraulic fluid • Based on proven PANOLIN technology • Ester blend with modified, saturated and unsaturated esters • Minimally toxic (according to OECD 201/202/203) • CO 2 reduction due to extended oil-change and service intervals • Outstanding anti-wear and anti-corrosion properties • Prevents deposits in the hydraulic system • Excellent cold flow characteristics • Outstanding extreme-pressure characteristics • Do not mix with other readily biodegradable hydraulic fluids – please refer to our «PANOLIN Conversion and Operating Guidelines» regarding mineral oils, synthetic fluids and PANOLIN ECLs/EALs PANOLIN HLP SYNTH E Hydraulic fluid – readily biodegradable, saturated synthetic esters Environmentally Considerate Lubricant (ECL)/ Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL) Features and benefits • Fully synthetic, high-performance, readily biodegradable, zinc-free and environmentally friendly hydraulic fluid, based on saturated synthetic esters with special additive technology • Minimally toxic (according to OECD 201/202/203) • CO 2 reduction due to extended oil-change intervals – enables higher machine efficiency • Prevents gumming and deposits of ageing products even under high thermal load • Excellent cold flow characteristics (extremely low pour point) • Do not mix with other readily biodegradable hydraulic fluids – please refer to our PANOLIN Conversion and Operating Guidelines» regarding mineral oils, synthetic fluids and PANOLIN ECLs/EALs PANOLIN HLP SYNTH Hydraulic fluid – readily biodegradable, saturated synthetic esters Environmentally Considerate Lubricant (ECL) Features and benefits • Fully synthetic, high-performance, readily biodegradable, zinc-free and environmentally friendly hydraulic fluid, based on saturated synthetic esters with special additive technology • Minimally toxic (according to OECD 201/202/203) • CO 2 reduction due to extremely long oil-change intervals «lifetime filling» – enables higher machine efficiency • Increases availability and reliability of your equipment due to greater power reserves • Outstanding extreme-pressure characteristics • Excellent cold flow characteristics (extremely low pour point) • Prevents gumming and deposits of ageing products even under high thermal load • Do not mix with other readily biodegradable hydraulic fluids – please refer to our «PANOLIN Conversion and Operating Guidelines» regarding mineral oils, synthetic fluids and PANOLIN ECLs/EALs ATLANTIS 5, 15 & N32 - readily Biodegradable’ hydraulic fluid • OSPAR compliant • CEFAS registered
