Manufacturer's description

PETRONAS Hydraulic ZF 32 belongs to the premium performance, ashless PETRONAS Hydraulic ZF Series, specially created for a wide range of mobile and industrial hydraulic equipment operating under normal to heavy-duty conditions and in the presence of water that could otherwise cause filter blocking. It is recommended for systems with smaller reservoirs and coolers generating high thermal stress, systems sensitive to sludge and varnish formation with tight-tolerance pumps and servo valves, and systems demanding long-life lubricants. Formulated with high quality selected base oils and advanced zinc-free anti-wear, antioxidant, anti-rust and anti-foam additives, it delivers excellent anti-wear protection under demanding operating conditions and an oxidation life up to 5 times longer than standard fluids, with a TOST life exceeding 10,000 hours against a minimum requirement of 1,000 hours. Grade 32 has a kinematic viscosity of 32 cSt at 40°C and 5.4 cSt at 100°C, a viscosity index of 102, a flash point of 220°C and a pour point of -33°C. PETRONAS Hydraulic ZF Series meets or exceeds ASTM D6158 HM, DIN 51524 Part II HLP, ISO 11158 HM, Eaton E-FDGN-TB002-E, Fives Cincinnati P-68/P-69/P-70, Parker Denison HF-0/HF-1/HF-2, GB 11118.1 L-HM and SS 155434:2015 Type M.

Applications

• Various mobile and industrial hydraulic systems operating under normal to heavy-duty conditions.
• Hydraulic systems with small reservoirs and small coolers that generate high thermal stress on the fluid.
• Systems sensitive to sludge and varnish formation, with tight-tolerance pumps and servo valves.
• Hydraulic systems demanding long-life lubricants.

Performance & benefits

• Reduces the risk of ash formation, maximising filter efficiency, thanks to its zinc-free formula.
• Ensures proper protection of equipment components during cold starts, through low-temperature protection.
• Protects equipment components from excessive wear and provides long equipment life, through high anti-wear protection.
• Maintains high filter efficiency without causing undue pressure drop, extending filter lifetime, through high wet and dry filterability.
• Maintains performance under high temperatures and pressure, enabling long oil drain intervals, through excellent thermal and oxidation stability.
• Inhibits corrosion in the presence of water, improving equipment life, through high rust and corrosion protection.
• Protects the hydraulic system from water's degenerative effects and reduces maintenance costs, thanks to excellent water separability.
