Switching to Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil: Steps and Considerations

The use of biodegradable hydraulic oil can have a positive impact on the environment, especially in situations where oil pollution is a concern. However, these oils may be more expensive and have performance limitations compared to conventional hydraulic oil. In this article, we will discuss how to switch to biodegradable hydraulic oil and what to consider.

Steps to Switch to Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil

1. Choose the Right Oil: Start by determining which biodegradable oil is most suitable for your specific application. Thoroughly read the technical data of the oils to ensure they meet your requirements.

2. Replace Oil and Filters: Completely drain the existing hydraulic oil from the system and replace both the oil and filters. Make sure to use the correct filters for biodegradable oils.

3. Thorough Cleaning: Perform a deep cleaning of the hydraulic system to remove any residues of the old oil. This is crucial to prevent contamination.

4. Add New Oil: Add the new biodegradable hydraulic oil to the system according to the recommended specifications. Check if the pressure and temperature within the system are in order.

5. Monitoring: Monitor the hydraulic system closely for some time to detect and resolve any issues. Pay attention to performance changes or potential leaks.

6. Responsible Disposal: Remember to dispose of the used hydraulic oil in a responsible and environmentally friendly manner. Biodegradable oil should not be discarded casually; special disposal methods are available.

Considerations for Using Biodegradable Hydraulic Oil

It is important to note that biodegradable hydraulic oil is often more expensive than regular hydraulic oil. Moreover, they may offer less performance in some cases compared to conventional oils. Therefore, it is essential to consider whether the environmental benefits outweigh the additional costs and potential performance limitations.

Biodegradable hydraulic oil can naturally break down and be recycled by microorganisms and natural processes. There are two main categories of biodegradable oils: vegetable oils and synthetic biodegradable oils. Both have their own applications and benefits.

The use of biodegradable oils can be a positive step towards environmental awareness, but it is crucial to continue to pay attention to proper handling and disposal to minimize potential negative effects on the environment.
