Hydraulic fluids
In general, hydraulic fluids recommended for this kind of portable hydraulic equipment should be manufactured under the following specifications:
AFNOR NF E 48-603 HV
ISO 6743/4 HV
DIN 51524/ P3 HVLP
It is always recommended to use fluids with a high viscosity index fluid (I.V. > 140) to ensure a good stability under a wide range of temperatures.
The Atlas Copco Maximizer range of hydraulic oil meets the criteria as mentioned above, always choose the grade of oil as per environmental temperature. refer below given chart for the hydraulic oil selection
For Arctic Climates, we recommend a fluid as the TOTAL XLT 15, that allows good start-up bellow -20ºC.
For applications with critical conditions of service, environmental restrictions, or similar, please contact Atlas Copco to select the appropriate hydraulic fluid for each service.
