Traditional hydraulic oils are normally made from combustible mineral oils. In certain environments, however, hot surfaces or open flames create a particular fire hazard – be it in the forging presses, in the steel and foundry industry or in the coal mining industry. On red-hot steel, for example, a simple leak could cause the mineral oil to ignite. This hazard is eliminated by Plurasafe® HL-HFC 46: The high-performance and water-glycol-based hydraulic liquid is particularly fire-resistant thanks to its water content of 43 percent.
