High Humidity<br />

Ambient Air<br />

• Hydraulic system oil and air inside reservoir heat up<br />

• Moisture carrying capacity of the air inside reservoir rises<br />

• Moisture condenses on cooler reservoir surfaces<br />

• Air inside reservoir cools to ambient temperature<br />

• Remaining excess moisture condenses causing oil<br />

degradation, machine wear and eventual failure<br />

Oil Mist Low Sensitivity<br />
