In the hydraulic sector, fluid contamination is one of the main causes of premature failure in hydraulic systems. The most sensitive components to the presence of solid particles in suspension are seals, which are essential for maintaining tightness and mechanical efficiency in hydraulic cylinders.
Maintaining temperature within a predefined range is crucial to ensure the proper functioning and longevity of a hydraulic system, particularly the seals.
