Castrol Anvol ® PE 46HR
Fire Resistat Hydraulic Fluid
Description
Castrol Anvol ® PE 46HR is a phosphate ester based fire resistant hydraulic fluid (ISO Classification HFD 46R)
intended for use in steam turbine governor and boiler control systems.
Application
Anvol ® PE 46HR was developed to eliminate service problems in high pressure systems resulting from spool
valve erosion/corrosion – fluid leakage and loss of response by possessing the properties known to minimize this
effect, notably high resistivity low chlorine content and a high level of fluid cleanliness.
Anvol ® PE 46HR is manufactured from 100% triaryl phosphate esters selected for their excellent hydrolytic
stability and has exceptionally good anti-corrosion and anti-oxidant properties.
Features and Benefits
• High flash point, fire point and auto-ignition temperature – Excellent fire resistance, passes the National Coal
Board, Wick and Spray Ignition Test
• The tendency to cause spool valve erosion is closely related to the resistivity of phosphate ester fluids, with
low values causing service problems, resistivity is above 50M Ohm/m, - Sufficiently high to virtually eliminate
valve corrosion/erosion by electro-kinetic effects.
• Chlorine content – Investigations into the causes of valve erosion show the chlorine content to be important.
The chlorine content is at a nominal level of 50ppm in order to minimize the possibility of valve erosion.
• High level of fluid cleanliness – Minor amounts of particulate contamination can cause abrasive wear, filter
blockage and valve sticking.
Approvals
Anvol ® PE 46HR is approved by the following manufacturers for use in their equipment.
AP Precision Hydraulics Limited – electro-hydraulic positioners
NEI Parsons Limited – turbine electro-hydraulic governor systems

Additional Information
Materials Compatibility:
Metals
Paints
Seals, Packaging, etc
Anvol ® PE 46HR is compatible with all metals commonly found in electro-hydraulic
control systems
Epoxy resin based paints should be used
In common with all phosphate ester fluids, special seals are required. The following
materials are suitable: Viton, Silicone, Ethylene Propylene, Butyl Rubber, Rubber,
PTFE
Resistivity:
In service it is necessary to maintain the high resistivity by Fullers Earth Filtration, otherwise fluid degradation
and/or moisture contamination causes the value to fall.
