CASTROL Performance Bio HE 46
Biodegradable hydraulic oil
Application CASTROL Performance Bio HE 46
Performance Bio HE 46 is intended for use in all hydraulic systems, where there is a risk that leaking fluid will contaminate ground water and the sewage system, such as in earthmoving machinery, refuse collection lorries, agricultural and forestry machinery, rail vehicles, presses and wrapping machines. Thanks to the carefully selected base oil, it can be used up to +120 °C. The viscosity index has a high value which means that the viscosity of the product depends relatively little on the temperature. The environmentally friendly nature, measured according to the CEC L-33-A-93 test is >90%. Performance Bio HE46 is not miscible with water. Performance Bio HE 46 is miscible with hydraulic fluids based on mineral oil and vegetable or synthetic esters. Nevertheless, when switching from mineral oil based hydraulic fluids to Performance Bio HE 46 it is recommended to empty the system completely as mixing with mineral oil reduces biodegradability and may lead to foaming problems. Performance Bio HE 46 meets the requirements according to VDMA 24568 for a HEES (Hydraulic Environmental Ester Synthetic).
Performance, Features & Benefits of CASTROL Performance Bio HE 46 are:
- Easily biodegradable
- Very high resistance to oxidation and hydrolysis
- Compatible with the usual seals
- Limited foaming even when mixed with mineral oil.
- Good shear resistance.

Product Description CASTROL Performance Bio HE 46
The Castrol Performance™ Bio HE range (formerly Carelube SES) is a biodegradable hydraulic fluid based on special saturated synthetic esters. It has a balanced package of additives that provide good oxidation stability, anti-corrosion and anti-wear properties as well as compatibility with lead bearing alloys. Thanks to the special synthetic base oil, Performance Bio HE has a very high viscosity index and an extremely low solidification point.
