Why Fire Resistant Hydraulic Fluids are important:
Power plants operate under extreme pressure and temperature. Their hydraulic systems control turbines, valves, and critical equipment. The biggest risk? Fire hazards from conventional hydraulic fluids.
The Problem
Traditional mineral oil-based fluids are highly flammable. A single leak near hot surfaces or electrical components can cause:
- Equipment damage
- Unplanned shutdowns
- Worker safety risks
- High repair costs
