HYDRAULIC FLUID
BYAN SYSTEMS OPERATORS US A “SHELL OIL PRODUCTS” TELLUS T-15, THIS
FLUID HAS A RELATIVELY LOW VISCOSITY SO IT WILL START TO FLOW QUICKLY
ON COLD DAYS. WHEN THE FLUID RISES TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE, THERE
IS NO RUSH OF THIN FLUID CAUSING POOR HYDRAULIC PERFORMANCE, OR
WORSE YET, EXCESSIVE PUMP WEAR, FAILURE AND EXPENSIVE DOWNTIME.
TELLUS FLUIDS MINIMIZE THE EFFECT TEMPERATURE HAS ON VISCOSITY, AND
RESISTS THE SHEARING ACTION OF HIGH SPEED PUMPS BY MAINTAINING THEIR
STABLE VISCOSITY LONGER.
THERE IS A ZINC TYPE ADDITIVE IN THE FLUID TO HELP IMPEDE WEAR AND
PREMATURE REPLACEMENT. IT HELPS PREVENT CORROSION TO METALS AND IS
DESIGNED TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH HOSES, SEALS AND OTHER ELASTOMER
PRODUCTS.
TELLUS T-15 READILY SEPARATES AIR AND WATER TO PREVENT FOAMING,
KEEPING THE FLUID FIT AND DIELECTRIC STRENGTH HIGH.

LEVEL CAN BE OBSERVED THROUGH THE OIL FILLER TUBE, LOCATED ON THE
TOP OF THE REAR FLANGE OF THE OPERATOR, WITH THE PISTON IN THE
RETRACTION POSITION, THE FLUID SHOULD BE VISIBLE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE
TUBE, LEVEL WITH THE CURVED SECTION OF THE TUBE. THE 500 SERIES

INTERMITTENTLY FAIL TO DRAW FLUID AND WILL FAIL TO RUN IN ONE
DIRECTION OR THE OTHER.
