• Viscosity Changes:Hydraulic fluid viscosity is affected by temperature changes. Higher temperatures decrease viscosity, reducing system efficiency. Lower temperatures increase viscosity, affecting flow rates and system responsiveness.
• Fluid Degradation:Elevated temperatures can cause hydraulic flui...

• Contaminant Removal: Hydraulic systems, operating under high pressure and precision, are susceptible to tiny particles. Filters act as the main defense against contaminants like dirt, debris, and metal particles that could enter the hydraulic fluid. Unchecked impurities can cause abrasion, wear, and...

• External Particulate Contamination: The contamination of hydraulic fluid can be primarily caused by external particulate matter. Through breather caps, seals, or damaged reservoirs, dust, dirt, and debris can infiltrate the hydraulic system.
• Water Ingress: The use of contaminated hydraulic fluid...

One of the functions of hydraulic oil is to create a lubricating film between two different components of the hydraulic system. This film helps to keep two parts separated and thereby reducing wear. The thickness of this film is important as it should fill the gap between the parts to reduce wear an...
