Hydraulic Oil Temperatures We at KJA recommend maintaining the hydraulic elevator oil at a temperature of 37Â°C (100Â°F) plus or minus 10 per cent. We are concerned with two things: the change in oil viscosity with the change in temperature and the possible breakdown of the oil at high temperatures.
A clogging indicator is the crudest form of this device. A better solution is continuous monitoring of pressure drop across the filter. Mistake No. 3 â Running too hot. Few equipment owners or operators continue to operate an engine that is overheating. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said when the hydraulic system gets too hot. But like an engine, the fastest way to destroy hydraulic components, seals, hoses and the oil itself is high-temperature operation.
