Equipment Preservation Fluid

Pelagic EPF is a premixed equipment preservation fluid designed to protect the internals of hydraulic equipment during storage and commissioning. It contains a sophisticated Vapour Phase corrosion Inhibitor (VPI) designed to protect metal surfaces that are not fully immersed in the liquid phase.

 

Pelagic EPF can also be used for commissioning, functioning and testing during the storage period and comes in the variants :

 

    -  Pelagic EPF (H) (freeze point -25°C)

    -  Pelagic EPF (M) (freeze point -10°C)

 

It is filtered to a minimum SAE AS 4059 class 6B-F (in the packaging) and offers excellent lubricity, anti-wear, long term stability, corrosion and microbiological protection during storage.

 

Note: for the VPI to be effective the equipment must be >70% full and all air vents & other routes for the VPI to escape must be blocked.
