Fluidos hidráulicos comunes
Los accesorios hidráulicos se utilizan para sellar el aceite o fluido hidráulico dentro del sistema. Por lo tanto, los accesorios deben ser compatibles con el fluido que se utiliza. El fluido hidráulico proporciona la energía al sistema que permite que la maquinaria realice su trabajo. Hay diferentes tipos de medios hidráulicos en el mercado.
Líquidos a base de-petróleo: Petroleum or mineral-based fluid is the most used hydraulic fluid. Additives in such fluids provide protection from rust and oxidation, wear and tear, corrosion, and extreme pressure. These fluids are generally high quality, low cost, and widely available.
Líquidos-a base de agua: These fluids have high water content, so, they are used for fire-resistance. They are available as water-in-oil emulsions, oil-in-water emulsions, and water-glycol blends. They are more expensive than petroleum-based fluids and have lower wear resistance.
Líquidos de base sintética-: These fluids are man-made and provide advantages like fire-resistance, lower friction, and thermal stability. They are ideal to use in high-temperature and high-pressure applications due to their excellent lubricating property. However, they are more expensive than petroleum-based fluids and maybe slightly toxic.
