Water/oil emulsion type Non-flammable
Hydrous
Oil/water emulsion type hydraulic fluid Fatty acid ester
Water soluble fluid Vegetable oil (rapeseed oil)
Note: *1 Categorized by the type of wear-resistant additive and base oil purification method.
Zinc based: Conventionally used general-purpose hydraulic fluid
Non-zinc based: Hydraulic fluid manufactured with sophisticated base oil purification method and capable of preventing sludge generation even in long-
time use at high temperature
*2 The conditions of use and the stability vary depending on the brand.
