CASTROL Performance™ Bio HE ESU 46. 208L

The Performance Bio HE 32 ESU and 46 ESU products evaluated by the CEC-L-33-A-93 test prove to be 99% biodegradable. The synthetic bases themselves provide exceptional properties as a hydraulic fluid with thermal stability and viscosity/temperature characteristics superior to those of conventional mineral-based products. The high viscosity index of the Performance Bio HE ESU products is inherent to the synthetic base without the need to add additives to achieve it.

Advantages

• 99% biodegradability means that the Performance Bio HE ESU products are suitable for applications where a spill could pose a serious risk to the environment.
• low water toxicity - WGK 1 rating for environmental impact
• high viscosity index provides reliable operations and a quick response over a wide range of temperatures.
• maximum protection during cold starts and at high temperatures
• excellent anti-wear protection, maximum lubricity prolonging component life and ensuring system reliability
• similar lubricant compatibility with mineral-based oils for seals, diaphragms, and hoses, allowing an easy change without modifying components
• Performance Bio HE 32 ESU and 46 ESU are miscible with conventional mineral-based hydraulic fluids and ester-based products, but to maximize the benefits of these products - both physical and environmental - it is recommended to drain the system to minimize residues of other lubricants.

Additional information

Performance BIO HE ESU is compatible and miscible with mineral oils and esters for hydraulic systems. To switch products, it would simply be necessary to drain the previous load and refill with the appropriate viscosity of Performance BIO HE ESU.
