Syncon FG Hydraulic Fluid is a premium quality, synthetic, food-grade antiwear hydraulic fluid developed for use in the hydraulic systems of machinery found in food processing plants and beverage bottling plants, where incidental food contact may occur. It also is recommended for use in rotary screw and rotary vane air compressors in food and beverage plants. Syncon FG Hydraulic Fluid is formulated with synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oils and an ashless (zinc-free) additive package to provide excellent service in hydraulic system applications. It provides excellent wear protection for hydraulic pumps and motors, and protects hydraulic system components against rust and corrosion. It has outstanding oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures to minimize deposit formation and provide long service life. It also has excellent low-temperature properties for cold start-ups. It has good water-separating properties to minimize the formation of emulsions, and is resistant to excessive foaming that can cause poor or sluggish hydraulic system response. Syncon FG Hydraulic Fluid meets FDA requirements and former 1998 USDA H1 guidelines for incidental food contact, and is registered by NSF International as an H1 lubricant. It meets the performance requirements of all major hydraulic pump manufacturers, and is recommended for use in all types of high-pressure, high-speed hydraulic pumps.
