QUESTION:
WHY A FIRE-RESISTANT FLUID?]
ANSWER: ' '
YLU1DS SPRAY FARTHER THAN YOU'D THINK!
When o hydraulic system fails--end the best of them can fail--fluids at pressures of 1000 p. s. I. and above can jet surprising distances. In one disastrous fire a hy draulic line broke and the fluid was ignited by a flame 40 feet away. The smaller the break, of course, the farther the fluid may travel. And through o pin-point leak, flammable fluids con be atomized to on explosive vapor-air mist-- potentially an even greater hazard. Around overy hydraulic machine and line in your plant there is a danger zone.
'ALSO... FLUIDS CAN BE IGNITED IN WAYS YOU'D NEVER SUSPECT. '
In addition to obvious means--open flames, molten or red hot metals, electric sparks, etc.,--there are many other ignition sources. One fire was started when a jet of flammoble fluid broke an ordinary electric bulb and was ignited by the incandescent filament. Sometimes the source--like the maintenance man's welding torch--Is only in the danger zone occasionally. The safest way to guard against these dangers is to keep a fire-resistant fluid in your hydraulic system. And PYDRAUL F-9 is the preferred fluid.

[section II:] Safety
During levcnl ytars of industrial use Pyiraul F-9 has been accidentally discharged over molten metal, ted hot Ingots, arcs, open flames and sparks. In no case has a fire resulted from such contact.
Moat materials, even metals, can be made to bum under some conditions. If Pyiraul F-9 is heated until decomposition products are formed, some burning can occur If an Ignition source exists. But this Is likely to happen only aijound high temperature sources like furnaces, molten metal, etc. Under conditions of in dustrial use, extraneous burning in hot areas is not
important because excessive beat has alrea I; been provided for. What it important Is keeping flames from leaving such areas, thereby spreading fir i.Thus > hydraulic fluid iritich is used in high t:eeimberiatuie areas or which can reach these by line breaks,! should not carry flames outside the high temppi|rature none.

[Section !V:1 Stability of PYDRAUL F-9
Pydraul F-9 U a highly stable fluid under all normal conditions of industrial hydraulic use. It has excellent resistance to beat, water and oxygen, and is noncor-
rosive to metals. Examination of Pydraul F-9 dfjter several years of use has shown that the fluid retains its desirable properties almost indefinitely.
[tITerMALSTAB1LITy3
The (lie resistance of Pydraul F-9 is inherent end is not due to the presence of ureter or other additives. Pydraul F-9 contains no readily volatile components, the loss of which can alter fluid composition during
use, nor does it break down under temperatures countered in most systems. Where necessary, Pydraul F-9 can be operated for long periods of time at peratures as high as 300 F.
[corrosion and oxidation stability!
Pydraul F-9 does not react with the various metals found in hydraulic systems nor does it allow elect rolytic corrosion, Good oxidation stability is to be expected due to the fire-resistant nature of Pydraul F-9, since burning is simply rapid oxidation.
The following tens were run according to procedures (or determining corrosion and oxidation stability as
given in the Military Specification MIL-0-5606 a,
iHydraulic, Aircraft, Petroleum Base). In this
cedure, strips of copper, iron, magnesium, alumni and cadmium plated steel are all immersed in test fluid. The fluid is heated to 250 F. and ' :ldthere for 168 hours while air is bubbled through, pie fluid and metal strips are then examined for

Section V: Lubrication and pump tests
An essential characteristic of a hydraulic fluid is the ability to proper|y lubricate moving parte under criti cal loading. Pydraul F-9 is outstanding in this respect, and field use has shown that in some instances it has reduced wear even below that encountered with high grade petroleum base fluids.
Pydraul F-9 has been tested and used in most of the hydraulic pumps commercially available. Pump manu
facturers have expressed their approval of Pydrai l F-9 because its characteristics help their pumps iitaln
maximum service life. Pydraul F-9 is even being used successfully in pumps where normally a petr >|eum fluid of much higher viscosity would he requite!.

j PUMP TESTS ,
Vickers Vane Pump, Type V-105A Two parallel tests were ruil using Pydraul F-9 in one pump and'a standard petroleum base hydraulic fluid in the other. During the test, the pumps were operated at ISO0 F. (5) for 16 hours a day, 5 days a week. This in terrupted operation was deemed more stringent than 24-hour operation because of the greater wear to be expected from frequent cold starts. For the first 400 hours, both pumps operated at 1200 r.p.m. at 100 px.l. delivering 4.76 gallons per minute. After 400 hours, the pump handling Pydraul F-9 was stepped up to 1500 p.s.i. for 126 hours; then for the next several hundred hours to 1800 r.p.m. at ISOO pa.I. delivering 6.S to 7.0 gallons per minute. After 800 hours of total operation, the pump was dismantled and the parts checked for weight loss. After only 200 hours of operation the rotor of the pump operated on petroleum fluid showed a weight toss of 2.9 grams due to wear. The rotor with Pydraul F-9 lost no weight in the first 200 hours, and only 0.1 gram after 800 hours. The weight loss of vanes and rings with either fluid was negligible.
Vickers Fiston Pump, Type PV 2008 This pump was tested with Pydraul F-9 at 2000 pa.i. for 1118 hours, and the parts were inspected. Pydraul F-9 was judged quite suitable for this type of pump.
In numerous field installations the service life of the above two pumps operating with Pydraul F-9 ranges between 25,000 and 40,000 hours--equivalent to the service with premium petroleum fluids. laboratory and Field tests have been made on the pumps of other manufacturers with equally good results. For a list of the pumps in which Pydraul F-9 is now being used see page 2.

Change-over to PYDRAUL F-9
k ... ...... ----------------- -J
The conversion to Pydraul F-9 of equipment which has previously contained petroleum or other hydraulic fluid U relatively simple and follows logical engineer ing practice. The steps below are given simply as a check list. Where possible, it is desirable to obtain recommended procedures from the manufacturers of the machine and pump on hand since the makers will be most familiar with the best method of handling their own equipment.
Pydraul F-9 is an excellent flushing compound in its own right; it will loosen tars, varnish and residues left by the previous fluid. Pydratd F-9 will also loosen and remove paint from the interior of the machine. These contaminants can be most easily removed from
the circulating Pydroul F-9 by a filler in the sj item. If there is no Alter, or If it is difficult to reach for cleaning, it may be advisable to use a portable! Ifilter which can be connected into the fluid return line, This portable filter can be left in the line two or three days of operation and then moved to next machine to be converted. Since it is considered |Pd hydraulic practice to filter hydraulic fluids |l|iring
normal operation, the portable filter can be! used routinely, after conversion, to filter the fluldsj on a regular basis.
Following are the general steps for convert)f]ug a hydraulic system to Pydratd F-9.
1. Before shutting down the machine for conver sion, check the entire system while in operation for fluid leaks. Mark these for correction later.
2. Drain the previous fluid from the reservoir, lines and cylinders as completely as possible. Some
times this can be done by opening unions at low
spots In the system, and in other cases blowing out with air will help.
If the previous fluid was petroleum oil It will
mix readily with Pydratd F-9. However, the more
completely the oil is drained, the safer the new
fhdd wilt be,
.
3. Clean the reservoir carefully and completely. It Is desirable; to remove interior paint at this time If possible, and this can be done by scraping or
with a commercial paint remover. When the
reservoir is clean it should be wiped dry with clean rags or towels that are free from dirt or grit. Waste Is Ukely to contain grit particles and lint that will later damage the pump or valves.
4. If a filter is used, remove and clean or change the cartridge.
5. Cheek the pump assembly and replace any parts that are seriously worn.
6. As to packings, either of two courses may be followed. Many have converted with no change in packings and then have later replaced leaking packings, if any, with resistant materials. The other method Is to change part or all of the packings to materials resistant to Pydraul F-9 at the time Of conversion. Neoprene, a commonly used packing, swells in Pydreul F-9. In static or fixed packings this is no problem since the
swelling usually makes a tighter seal. However, when the joint is later dis-assembled the swelled
packing usually has to be replaced with one. For dynamic or sliding seals, a neoprene dart is more likely to fail and these moving seals ipould be replaced with packings made of resistan ma* terials. (Most packing manufacturers can now supply packings for use with Pydraul F-9.1 the regular supplier does not have these, a ljst of
manufacturers is shown in Section VII.)
In most machines, if hose is used, it is usually of neoprene. In previous installations, this horn has apparently presented no problem. Swelling! not seem to occur nor have there been failures other than from normal wear. However, it is recommended that when hose is replaced, a! hose resistant to Pydraul F-9 (Butyl lining will suf
fice) should be used.
ft. If a nitrogen bottle accumulator is used,
change is necessary. If a bladder type accumula tor Is used, a Butyl rubber bladder should be
used instead of neoprene.
I
9. Reconnect all lines and tighten, particulkrly those joints previously noted leaking. Fill] with
Pydraul F-9 to the proper level.
10. With the hydraulic controls on neutral, end stop the pump several times, without a low ing the system to reach working pressure, litis will provide the necessary pump lubrication The pump may then be left on and the system bn Ught up to working pressure.
U. Run through the cycle several times to ud^ all
parts of the hydraulic system. Bleed thd air through the petcocks or valyes provided from Uiy parts in which air can collect.
.12 Check the fluid level and add Pydratd Fj-9 if
necessary.

' About Fluid Makeup ... f .
The technique of holding down the makeup requirement for Pydraul F-9 Is the same as with any fluid; namely, adequate maintenance. The normal loss of Pydraul F-9 in a properly converted system will be no more than that for a petroleum fluid, and In a gKat many cases it has been considerably less. With proper maintenace Pydraul F-9 losses in diecast'mi machines have been held to as little as a pint per 8 hour shift. If a fluid reclaiming system is added--a relatively simple matter with Pydraul F-9-- the total use of fluid can be cut even further. It is not unusual to find that where Pydraul F-9 has been installed, the daily cost of hydraulic fluid used has actually gone dam.

Section Vllsl Packings and seals data
Packings and seals suitable for use with Pydratd F-9 are available from a large number of manufacturers and in all configurations. Ko "special" materials are needed for packings or seals -- simply certain kinds of standard materials.
Packings resistant to Pydratd F-9 are generally required only for moving (dy namic) seals. Static seals may be made of resistant materials or not, as the user
prefers. In a static parking, swelling usually gives an even tighter seal. Best practice, however, dictates replacement of nonresistam seals with suitable pack ing during normal maintenance and routine overhaul.
Table 5 lists the manufacturers who have indicated the availability of packings resistant to Pydratd F-9.

Several of the filter manufacturers put out a complete unit that includes the filter, motor and pump. These companies include Hilliard, Cuno, and Honan-Crane. Such a unit has value beyond its use for reclaiming Pydraul F-9, as spine plants use such equipment to clean up all their hydraulic fluid every few weeks. For other filter manufacturers tee page 16.

[ Section Xi] Toxicity and sale handling Informatlol
Extensive animal experimental work has been done
on Pydraul F-9. In the case of oral feedings it was
found that the minimum lethal dose for rats was
10.6 to 15.8 grams per kilogram of body weight. In
rabbits the oral MLD was 0.57 to 085 grams; in
both cases the undiluted material ires introduced into
the animal stomach by means of a rubber tube
catheter.

Pydraul F-9 was patch-tested full strength according to the method of Schwarts and Peck, which is the standard test for Industrial chemicals. Two hundred and five volunteers were tested and there was no evidence of primary skin irritation or sensitisation.
The material was tested for its vapor phase toxicity by exposing animals to saturated atmosphere concen trations in suitable chambers. This part of the in vestigation involved not only the vapors of Pydraul F-9 itself but also experiments where the fluid was dropped on Inconel surfaces heated to 1050 F. and 1150 F. In all cases the toxicity was roughly com

When splashed, or sprayed into the eyes, Pydrav F-9 causes burning and smarting; however, there nave
been no reports of lasting damage. In treatin] eye irritation following introduction of Pydraul, oipius and prolonged washing is recommended. To reliev s the -irritation, physicians have used 1% pontocaine solu tion as well as opthalmic cortisone acetate soli tion.
Regarding the effect of Pydraul F-9 on worker J we have not experienced any injuries during its nanufacture. We advise in safe handling that foils wing prolonged or repeated skin contact, the materh I be washed off and that the material be kept out o the eyes. If prolonged contact with the decompoi ition products at elevated temperatures should occur, res piratory protection is necessary.
