Use Rando HDZ to Improve your equipment’s operating efficiency Most industrial equipment of today is equipped with modern hydraulic systems that are engineered to perform at higher speeds under higher operating temperatures. The choice of a hydraulic oil thus has an enormous influence on equipment performance, reliability, and longevity. This makes it critical to select a high-quality hydraulic oil, since its impact is directly felt on the bottom line. Based on exhaustive testing and real-world applications, a premium hydraulic fluid has been said to help boost efficiency on several measures; some of these include equipment reliability, energy savings and the lifespan of the oil itself. An underperforming oil can reduce volumetric flow, leading to reduced or delayed pressure in hydraulic systems, and resulting in poor performance and productivity.

 

Since the importance of selecting a hydraulic fluid cannot be overlooked, it’s important to be aware of the attributes to look for in a hydraulic fluid that show the potential to help improve efficiency in industrial equipment. The performance of hydraulic fluid is determined by the balance of a premium base oil, the formulator’s unique additive chemistry, and fluid cleanliness; however, since these qualities vary from one lubricant producer to another, it’s tough to compare the oils based on their datasheets.

 

Among other parameters to select the hydraulic fluid include a Turbine (Oil) Oxidation Stability Test, indicating how long the oil has shown to withstand oxidation, but this parameter is by no means definitive. Other key considerations in evaluating hydraulic oils include low-temperature pour-point and fluidity, corrosion protection, and a stable viscosity index.


In the end, while selecting the hydraulic oil, choose one that will offer long-term tangible efficiency gains and reliable equipment performance.


Caltex Middle East’s Rando HDZ ticks all the boxes. This premium quality, shear stable, multi-viscosity, anti-wear hydraulic fluid gives robust protection for hydraulic systems subjected to wide variations in ambient and operating temperatures. It can be used in industrial hydraulic equipment in mining, quarrying, and construction that is subject to wide variation in temperatures.


The benefits of using this premium hydraulic fluid are manifold. Among them are its wide temperature application due to it being formulated with premium Group II base oils and shear stable viscosity modifier to give high viscosity index, minimizing changes in viscosity with temperature, allowing use over a wider range of operating temperatures compared to the conventional monograde hydraulic oils, giving better protection to the equipment.


Rando HDZ’s effective oxidation inhibitors reduce oil thickening and deposit formation in service, improving filterability and minimizing the need for an unscheduled change of hydraulic fluid, extending oil service life. Its good anti-foam and air release properties also ensure smooth operation and system efficiency. Overall, the use of Rando HDZ can improve the operating efficiency of the equipment used for mining operations, quarrying, and construction.
