PydraulvMC
A High-Performance Hydraulic Fluid For Safer
Hydraulic Operation With Minimum Maintenance
PydraulMC fire-resistant^hydraulic fluid was developed spe
cifically for use in mining equipment. It is a phosphate-esteT
based formulation containing no water. It meets the fire resis
tance requirements of the U.S. Bureau of Mines Schedule *30.
Equally important, field experience since 1972 shows that Pydraul
4I u 1 1
.
MC-'offers the following operating advantages:
............ .
' * Reduced Fluid Maintenance
'
Unlike water-based hydraulic fluids that are oil
emulsion or glycol solutions -- Pydraul MC does
not lose water by evaporation to change composition
arid viscosity.
, '.
* Eliminates Hazards From Spillage
' Water-based fluids that evaporate off their water
component can leave behind flammable residues in
reservoirs, spill pools or crevices.
.
* Operates At Higher Temperatures S Pressures
Pydraul MC has excellent viscosity characteristics
. and a high degree of lubricity that permits efficient
hydraulic operation at pressures up to 5,000 psi.
* Gives Equipment Protection From Corrosion
41 u * 1 Pydraul MC^does not create a rust-promoting environ
, ment in operating equipment. It is chemically stable
to help eliminate corrosion problems.

Monsanto's development of fire protection for industrial
hydraulic operations began with the first Pydraul fluid in 1951.
Pydraul fluids have since provided industry with millions of ma
chine hours of safe operation.
Pydraul MC was designed to enable ore and coal mine operators
meet the current safety legislation that requires a fire-resistant
fluid in unattended equipment and either a fire-resistant fluid
or suitable fire suppression devices in attended equipment. The
initial cost and maintenance of fire suppression devices may show
that a stable fluid such as Pydraul MC would be the most economical
choice in the long run.
.
Pydraul MC is a dependable hydraulic fluid for safer operation
of above- and below ground equipment with minimized maintenance. eens'iJor ult

Compatibility With Materials
Metals
Pydraul MC is compatible with all the commonly used metals of construction.
Paints Other Fluids
Cured epoxy, phenolic, polyurethane and nylon based paints are satisfactory. INTERIOR SURFACES ARE PREFERABLY LEFT UNTAINTED. Pydraul MC is miscible in all proportions with the Pydraul E and Pydraul C Scries of fluids. It is essentially insoluble in water.
Packings, Seals, Hoses and Bladders
Materials compatible with Pydraul MC are necessary for dynamic or moving seals. For static seals they are preferred but not essential.

Fire Resistance Advantages of Pvdraul Pydraul fluids protect hydraulic equipment and personnel with
permanent fire protection. Pydraul fluids contain no water to evaporate and leave a flammable residue. During their many mil lions of machine hours of use, Pydraul fluids have been acciden tally sprayed over molten metal, through electrical arcs, into flames and sparks without disaster. They pass all of the important ignition tests for fire resistance.
"N0TF;: Materials designated 'fire resistant' generally are more difficult to ignite, or once ignited, bum at a slower rate than corresponding conventional
(materials. This term does not mean that fire resistant materials will not bum. However, when properly used. Monsanto's fire resistant PYDRAUL0 HYDRAULIC FLUIDS are useful in helping customers meet their fire safety requirements."

CONVERTING MINING EQUIPMENT HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS TO PYDRAUL MC
Regardless of the type of hydraulic fluid being used, con
verting a system to Pydraul MC is easy. Virtually every type of
equipment that uses fire-resistant hydraulic fluid has been conhydraulic
verted to Pydraul phosphate-ester^fluids. Most equipment manufac+ pyjrrtul 2 1 w I d
turers are experienced in
conversion^Vand should
be consulted.
If changing seals is necessary, equipment manufacturers can
recommend which to change, and many carry a supply of compatible
seals. Laboratory tests and operational experience show Viton*,
Teflon*, and silicone to be the preferred elastomers.
To replace other fluids which are compatible with Pydraul
and where compatible seals are already in the system, it is only
necessary to add Pydraul MC as make-up fluid. It is not necessary
to drain or clean. However, when converting from petroleum oils,
non-compatible synthetic fluids, water-glycol fluids, or water-
in-oil emulsions -- the following steps are recommended. These
conform to USA Standard B93.5 -- 1973.
Changing from Petroleum Oil 1. Completely drain and clean the system. Small amounts of oil will not interfere with the performance of Pydraul, but resistance to fire is reduced by the amount of oil left in the system. 2. Drain and blow out pipelines. Manually clean valves and reservoirs.

3. Open or remove-and-drain all valves. Replace gaskets; packings, and seals with compatible materials. It is particularly important to change dynamic seals. Static seals do not necessarily have to.be changed if they are hot leaking. Non-compatible static seals can be replaced
. when the component is disassembled for maintenance.
4. Remove pumps, accumulators, and cylinders, if neces sary, for draining. Replace packings, seals, gaskets, and bladders with materials compatible with Pydraul.
. 5. Check component functions before the system is closed
and fluid is. added.
'
6. If the system cannot be completely drained, -if" may
have to be flushed out with a small amount of Pydraul.
t'
Changing from WaterrGfycol or Water-in-Oil Emulsion
1. Drain and clean system thoroughly. Remove all traces
of water. Empty all lines and low points or dead'
pockets in components.
.
"
2. Clean with steam or warm water. Follow by blowing with dry air.
3. Check sealing materials, hoses, and accumulator bags.
Replace if necessary with compatible materials.
.
Kydrawlit
'4, Install a minimum charge of Pydraul*and operate the
system from 16 to 24 hours. During this period, in
spect the reservoir. If water or other contaminants
float to the top, remove by skimming.

TOWOLDMON0022681 WATER_PCB-00007150
5. Drain the flushing charge immediately after shut-down
while the fluid is warm. Drain all isolated points
or parts which do not drain back to the reservoir.
If water is apparent in fluid clinging to walls, wipe
down all accessible parts.

Toxicity and Safe Handling
Animal studies indicate that Pydraul MC can be classed as practically non-toxic when considered as an industrial fluid. It is non-irritating when the skin is exposed to the fluid.
In case of skin contact wash off with soap and water as a hygenic procedure. In the case of eye contact flush with copious amounts of water.
Due to its low order of toxicity, Pydraul MC requires no special handling precautions.
