The Ecosure HSE range of biodegradable hydraulic fluids has been developed specifically for use in enviromentally sensitive marine applications.

Available in ISO 32, 46 and 68 viscosity grades, the ECOSURE HSE oils offer an unbeatable combination of outstanding operational performance and excellent ecological credentials. As such, the introduction of the ECOSURE HSE range to your fleet will provide efficient hydraulic functioning whilst helping to minimise the environmental impact of your operations should spillage occur.

Performance Data:

1. ECOSURE HSE 68 will outperform other biodegradable hydraulic fluids in the ASTM D-943 dry TOST oxidation test, easily exceeding 2500hrs and giving performance superior to many mineral oil based fluids.
2. ECOSURE HSE 68 will biodegrade if accidentally released. It has an ultimate biodegradability of greater than 60% in the 28-day OECD 301B test.
3. ECOSURE HSE 68 has low toxicity in the marine environment compared to mineral oil based hydraulic fluids. It is classified as Practically Non-Toxic based on the following results:
   
   

   Fish	Daphnia	Shrimp	Algae
   LC50 exceeds 100 mg/l	EC50 exceeds 100 mg/l	EC50 = 200 mg/l	LC50 exceeds 1000 mg/l

4. ECOSURE HSE 68 gives excellent pump protection to meet the demands of modern hydraulic systems.
5. ECOSURE HSE 68 provides excellent corrosion protection of the metals commonly used in hydraulic systems.
6. ECOSURE HSE 68 is compatible with the following elastomeric seal materials: Nitrile, Viton®, Teflon, Nylon and PTFE.
7. ECOSURE HSE 68 gives superior demulsification performance to many biodegradable hydraulic fluids especially when mixed with seawater.
