Hydraulic and lubricating oils are critical to system performance, component protection, and operational reliability. Understanding fluid properties, contamination levels, viscosity, and oil condition is essential for effective fluid management and predictive maintenance. Watch this HYDAC TechMinute to learn more about the role of hydraulic and lubricating oils in maintaining efficient, reliable hydraulic systems.

In hydraulic and lubrication systems, fluid cleanliness is a key factor in ensuring maximum equipment reliability and performance. Even small increases in particle contamination can accelerate component wear, reduce system efficiency, and lead to costly unplanned downtime. The new HYDAC Contamination Sensor CS 1500 Series has been developed to take online fluid condition monitoring to… Continue reading Smarter Fluid Monitoring with the New HYDAC Contamination Sensor CS 1500

This HYDAC TechMinute explains how to correctly calculate and set the nitrogen pre-charge pressure (P₀) in a hydro-pneumatic accumulator.

Even small amounts of contamination in diesel fuel can lead to reduced performance, unexpected downtime, and increased maintenance costs. Fortunately, these risks can be minimized with the right filtration technology. In this video of HYDAC Australia, the HYDAC LVH-F filtration system is showcased, designed to protect diesel systems from contamination and help maintain peak operational… Continue reading How to Improve Generator and Diesel Tank Reliability with Filtration

HYDAC’s Stat-X filter technology is designed to reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD) in hydraulic and lubrication systems, helping to protect equipment, improve oil performance, and extend filter life. A Replacing conventional filter elements with Stat-X can increase the service life of hydraulic oil and filters by up to 20%. Modern hydraulic fluids are increasingly formulated without… Continue reading Stat-X filter elements by HYDAC

Varnish builds up inside hydraulic systems, creating sludge deposits that can cause overheating, blocked filters, sticking valves, and system failures. To address this issue, HYDAC has developed a varnish elimination unit (VEU), which removes these degradation products by cooling the oil and separating the contaminants. This process restores the oil to a clean state, improves… Continue reading How to efficiently eliminate varnish from your hydraulic system
