XL-5000

LOW PRESSURE FIRE-RESISTANT WATER GLYCOL HYDRAULIC

FLUID

XL-5000 provides a safer working environment for those applications where hydraulic piping might
rupture and spray fluid onto hot surfaces and ignite with resultant hazard to
plant personnel and equipment.

XL-5000 is a Group 1 Factory Mutual approved fluid and is approved by the Canadian Centre
for Mineral and Energy Technology (CANMET) for use in underground mining
applications.

FEATURES BENEFITS
• Lubricating agents provide good anti-wear characteristics • Protects pumps and system components from premature wear
• Corrosion inhibited to protect ferrous and non-ferrous components;
both liquid and vapor phases
• Extends equipment life, reduces downtime and maintenance costs
• More environmentally manageable than other fire-resistant fluids • More acceptable in today’s environmentally conscious society
• Low pour point • Ease of startup over a broad operating range
