Name the Fluid and its use

[Pontual]

It's a 100% Synthetic Fluid

Density 15C: 820kg/m3
Viscosity at -40C: 1050 mm2/s
Viscosity at 40C: 18 mm2/s
Viscosity at 100C: 5.9 mm2/s
Viscosity Index 320
Flash Point Cleveland: 157C
Pour Point: -51C

So, name the Fluid and its application. No piston pins, just win.

It really sounds like a 5wt shock fluid, Lucas S2 has very similar specs

 

[Jetronic]

AC compressor oil?

 

[Pontual]

We're getting to it, but another hint is that they're used as in orange fluid eletro-hydraulic systems, moreover french cars...

 

[userfriendly]

Boeing strut LGF is yellow.
Orange should be aircraft Hyd fluid.

 

[Pontual]

Modern aircraft hyd fluid are purple in color. Skydrol 500 for example. It's ester Phosfate base synthetic. Not the questioned fluid. Another hint: same spec are used in suspension and power steering for CARS.

What is the flash point of this fluid?

 

[Pontual]

It's right there, 157C. And, acording to the spec sheet from the manufacturer. I don't know about the Cleveland method (vacuumed?), though. Isn't ASTM or flame over fumes, I think. Not for heat soak systems anyway.

Composition: 100% Synthetic fluid with 1-decenoate, hydrogen dimer (flash point decreasers), plus, alkoxylated long chain alkyl amine (multifunction as disperant, anti-rust and corrosion, etc). It isn't volatile at operation temperatures (below 100C). Considered harmfull if inhaled and/or swallowed ...

Fluide Da
synthetic hydraulic fluid, some uses - power steering systems on Peugeot and Citroen cars

Straight from PooToe, 8km from the tower.

Total Fluide DA?

Better look at that again. It's a 2.0 cSt PAO, a base oil.

Total Fluide DA?


Synthetic fluid of orange colour especially developped for electro-hydraulic power steering systems (EHPS) of passenger cars (Peugeot, Citroën, Renault…)
- Approved for use in centralized hydraulics of commercial vehicles requiring a synthetic hydraulic fluid

 

[Pontual]

Its a LDS, fluid.

But who said Total Fluide DA is also right, because they're same specs, but it doen't do suspension. Ray B wons.

 

[Pontual]

What, 1-decenoate hydrogen dimer is a 2 Cst PAO?

Sincerely!

 

[Pontual]

So, could you elocubrate a little more Molakule? A 2 Cst has a low flash point as 157C?

Nothing to elaborate on, except you had in parentheses that it was a flash point decreaser. That is not correct.

It's a Group IV PAO base oil with a 100C viscosity of approx. 2.0 cSt.

The total formulation consists of a PAO, a multi-functional corrosion inhibitor/detergent/AW, and a polymethylacrylate VII.

 

[Jetronic]

suitabele as power steering fluid, in your opinion?

 

[Pontual]

Yes, the other fluid, the DA is for eletrohydraulic power steering.

You didn't answer my question, again. The 1-decenoate, hidrogen dimmer doesn't make for a lower flash point for PAO base when added to it?
