Manufacturer's description

Eni Arnica V is a biodegradable hydraulic fluid obtained from esters of vegetable origin particularly selected and refined, intended for those applications where the problem of environmental pollution is prevalent and where there is a risk of accidental spills from machinery towards the environment. The high viscosity index allows their use in a particularly wide range of ambient temperatures. Moreover compared to other product classes, it has a higher flash point, a useful safety feature in the workplace. Eni Arnica V is biodegradable over 60% according to OECD test 301B. We recommend the use of the product in systems where the maximum internal temperature of the hydraulic circuit does not exceed 60°C. In exceptional cases and for short periods of time the temperature up to 70°C is tolerated.

Applications

• Eni Arnica V is a biodegradable hydraulic fluid obtained from esters of vegetable origin particularly selected and refined, intended for those applications where the problem of environmental pollution is prevalent and where there is a risk of accidental spills from machinery towards the environment. The high viscosity index allows their use in a particularly wide range of ambient temperatures. Moreover compared to other product classes, it has a higher flash point, a useful safety feature in the workplace. Eni Arnica V is biodegradable over 60% according to OECD test 301B. We recommend the use of the product in systems where the maximum internal temperature of the hydraulic circuit does not exceed 60°C. In exceptional cases and for short periods of time the temperature up to 70°C is tolerated.

Performance & benefits

• Excellent demulsibility. Effectively prevents the formation of stable emulsion with water avoiding the depletion of the lubricant
• Excellent corrosion and rust protection. It effectively providing the protection of metallic part present in the circuit
• Good anti-foam characteristic preventing the consequent malfunctioning of the hydraulic plants
• Compatible with seal materials generally used in hydraulic systems
• Excellent anti-wear property proved by the FZG test > 12th stage

Standards & approvals

• ISO 15380 HETG

  Biodegradable hydraulic fluid HETG — ISO 15380

  Class HETG of ISO 15380: biodegradable hydraulic fluids on a triglyceride — that is, vegetable oil — base. Cheap and highly biodegradable, but with a narrower temperature range than the esters.

• WGK 1

  WGK 1 — German water hazard class

  The German classification of substances by their risk to groundwater. Class 1 means "slightly hazardous to water", the least severe class a lubricant is given.
