FAQs

What is the primary use for MANNOL Hydraulic Oil ISO 46?

This oil is primarily designed for use in industrial hydraulic equipment, providing lubrication and power transmission.

Is this oil suitable for automotive applications?

No, this oil is specifically formulated for industrial hydraulic systems and is generally not suitable for automotive power steering or transmission systems. Always use fluids specified by the vehicle manufacturer.

What does ISO 46 refer to?

ISO 46 refers to the Kinematic Viscosity Grade of the oil, according to the International Organization for Standardization. It indicates a medium viscosity suitable for a wide range of hydraulic applications.

Can I mix this oil with other hydraulic fluids?

It is generally not recommended to mix different types of hydraulic oils (e.g., mineral with synthetic) without consulting the equipment manufacturer's recommendations. Mixing can potentially alter performance characteristics.

How often should I change the hydraulic oil?

The frequency of oil changes depends on the equipment manufacturer's recommendations, operating conditions, and the results of fluid analysis. Regular checks are advised, and a change is typically recommended based on service hours or if the oil shows signs of degradation.

Does this oil provide rust and oxidation protection?

Yes, the formulation includes additives that help protect hydraulic components from rust and degradation due to oxidation.

What are the key specifications this oil meets?

It meets specifications such as ISO 11158 HM, DIN 51524-2, AFNOR NF E 48-603, and OEM specifications including Eaton, Mag Cincinnati, and Parker Denison.

Troubleshooting

Hydraulic system operates sluggishly

Check hydraulic fluid level. If low, top up. Ensure the oil is within its optimal temperature range. If the oil is old or contaminated, consider a fluid change.

Excessive foaming in the hydraulic system

Ensure the fluid level is not too high. Check for air leaks in the suction lines. Avoid over-agitating the oil during filling. Ensure the oil is not aerated.

Hydraulic pump noise increases

Check fluid level and ensure it is adequate. Inspect for air ingress into the system. The oil may have lost its lubricating properties; consider a fluid change.

System overheating

Verify that the correct viscosity grade (ISO 46) is being used for the operating conditions. Check cooling system functionality. Ensure there are no internal system restrictions causing excessive friction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets a comprehensive list of international and manufacturer-specific standards.
  • Formulated for reliable performance in industrial hydraulic systems.
  • Provides good protection against wear, corrosion, and oxidation.
  • Convenient 10-litre packaging for industrial settings.
  • Cost-effective mineral oil solution for many applications.

Cons

  • As a mineral oil, it may have a narrower operating temperature range compared to synthetics.
  • Not suitable for highly specialized or extreme environment applications requiring synthetic lubricants.
  • Requires proper disposal as per local regulations for mineral oils.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the hydraulic system is clean and free of contaminants before filling.
  2. Drain the old hydraulic fluid completely.
  3. Fill the system with MANNOL Hydraulic Oil ISO 46 to the recommended level, following equipment manufacturer guidelines.

Compatibility:

  • This oil is compatible with most common hydraulic system components and seals typically found in industrial machinery. However, always consult your equipment's manual for specific fluid type recommendations.
  • It meets specifications like ISO 11158 HM, DIN 51524-2, and various OEM standards (Eaton, Parker Denison, etc.), indicating broad industrial acceptance.
  • Do not mix with synthetic hydraulic oils unless explicitly recommended by the equipment manufacturer, as this may affect performance.

Care:

  • Store the oil in its original container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
  • Keep containers sealed when not in use to prevent contamination.
  • Regularly check the hydraulic fluid level and condition. Replace fluid according to the equipment manufacturer's service schedule or if signs of degradation (e.g., discoloration, odor) are present.
  • Dispose of used oil responsibly according to local environmental regulations.
