Key Performance Benefits

HiTEC 544 Water Separation

HiTEC 544 delivers performance benefits in a number of key areas:

- Excellent oxidation stability
Capability to extend the oil drain interval resulting in reduced
disposal costs. Potential to improve efficiency during the length
of the oil drain due to decrease in deposits

D1401 Demulse Test

Time to 37 ml water (mins)

HiTEC 544 has been designed to provide superior performance over

traditional hydraulic additive systems in severe duty and high-load
applications. It increases the life of the hydraulic fluid whilst enabling
operators to reduce the environmental impact of their operations.

- Excellent separation from water

Water contamination rapidly separated and maintained during
service
- Effective foam control in most base oil combinations
Additive package includes antifoam, precludes the need to
purchase a separate foam inhibitor

Recommended Dosage
The standard treat rate for HiTEC 544 is 0.82 % wt. It has been
extensively tested in a range of Group I and II base stocks. HiTEC 544 has
demonstrated compatibility with calcium and zinc-containing hydraulic
fluids. A small number of systems may require draining or flushing prior
to first use. Please contact your Afton Chemical representative for specific
recommendations.
