Innovations in measuring and managing hydraulic oil degradation
Oxidative stress on hydraulic oils creates deposits, causing a whole host of operational issues for fluid power applications. Much attention has been given to understanding other applications susceptible to deposits, such as turbines, including the development of testing and mitigation technologies. These technologies are not necessarily applicable to hydraulic fluids. This presentation will introduce a new method to test deposit tendencies in hydraulic oils, as well as new innovations to solve sludge and varnish challenges in hydraulic components.
