INDUS ISO-VG-320

Indus ISO VG 320 is a paraffin based hydraulic oil that ensures minimum energy loses stemming from friction between moving parts. It exhibits very high viscosity and forms a good lubricating film in hydraulic circuits even at high temperatures.

Grade

iso-vg-320

Benefits

Indus ISO VG 320 is classified as an anti-wear hydraulic oil owing to its exceptional ability to reduce friction and corrosion. 

This lubricant is a very stable fluid as it doesn’t get oxidized easily and maintains a functional viscosity at very high temperatures. 

It greatly resists entrapment of air bubbles thus ensuring a consistent protective film around moving parts. 

Applications

The INDUS ISO VG 320 Hydraulic oil is suitable for heavy-duty hydraulic systems across various industries. Steel generation, mining and power generation are a few examples where a heavy-duty hydraulic oil like ISO VG 320 is required.

What is ISO VG 320 oil used for?

This hydraulic oil serves as a crucial lubricant and power transmission fluid in various industrial hydraulic systems. It is an anti-wear oil that works to ensure that heavy-duty systems perform efficiently with minimum downtime and maintenance.

What are the advantages of using ISO VG 320 oil?

ISO VG 320 Hydraulic oil is a high viscosity-grade fluid. You can use it in demanding conditions of high temperature, high pressure and heavy loads. It will provide adequate lubrication and safeguard the system against wear. 

Moreover, it contains advanced additives that equip it with high-stability properties like oxidation resistance and thermal stability. Thus, it has a long life-span. 

How do I know if ISO VG 320 oil is suitable for my equipment?

ISO VG 320 is suitable for most heavy-duty equipment. It is important to consult the equipment manufacturer’s manual or a qualified mechanic to figure out the exact viscosity grade oil for your equipment.

Can ISO VG 320 oil be mixed with other viscosity grades?

Generally, it is not a good idea to mix ISO VG 320 oil with other viscosity grades. Mixing oils of varying viscosity grades results in a mixture of fluids with unpredictable properties and limited performance. However, under some conditions mixing oils with similar viscosity grades might be feasible. It is crucial to consult an expert before doing so.

What are the potential challenges of using ISO VG 320 oil?

When used in place of a low viscosity oil, it exhibits poor flow and doesn’t form a functional lubricating film. This hugely impacts fuel efficiency and system performance.  

ISO VG 320 hydraulic oil might also show compatibility issues with certain materials and seals.

How often should ISO VG 320 oil be replaced?

The frequency of changing ISO VG 320 hydraulic oil hinges on factors like operational circumstances, equipment utilization, and findings from physical inspection of oil. Adhere to guidelines provided by the manufacturer and regularly analyze the oil to establish the suitable replacement schedule.

Can ISO VG 320 oil help improve energy efficiency in machinery?

Yes indeed, ISO VG 320 hydraulic oil helps improve energy efficiency by reducing friction and diminishing energy loses due to friction.
