Houghto-Safe 1120

Phosphate Ester Type Fire Resistant Hydraulic Fluid

 

DESCRIPTION

 

Houghto-Safe 1120 is a phosphate ester fluid that is approved for operation in most types of pumps and associated hydraulic components. Houghto-Safe 1120 combines fire resistance with excellent lubricating properties. Houghto-Safe 1120 is Factory Mutual approved. Houghto-Safe 1120 is made from triaryl phosphate ester plus corrosion and oxidation inhibitors. These inhibitors extend the fluid service and insure maximum hydraulic circuit component life with lower maintenance costs. Houghto-Safe 1120 can be used at elevated temperatures up to 150ºF, but for optimum fluid life we recommend a reservoir temperature of 120ºF. Many years of field experience confirm that Houghto-Safe 1120 excels in fire resistance, component lubrication, thermal stability, and corrosion prevention.

 

Houghto-Safe 1120 is compatible with all metals common to hydraulic power circuits that include all steel, cast iron, copper, bronze, brass, zinc, cadmium, aluminum and magnesium metals. Houghto-Safe 1120 is compatible with the following elastomers: butyl, ethylene propylene, viton, silicon and chlorinated polyethylene. Houghto-Safe 1120 is not compatible with water containing fluids such as water glycols, water in oil emulsion and high water content fluids. All standard filtration techniques are satisfactory with Houghto-Safe 1120. Blotter type filter elements will remove water contamination. Activated earth or alumina can be used to reclaim degraded or contaminated fluid.
