Exxon HyJet IV-A plus
Fire-Resistant Phosphate Ester Aviation Hydraulic Fluid
Product Description
Exxon HyJet IV-Aplus is a fire-resistant phosphate ester hydraulic fluid designed for use in commercial aircraft. It is the best-performing Type IV fluid and approaches to a great extent many of the performance capabilities of Type V fluids, including high temperature stability,fluid life, low density, and rust protection. It is superior to all other Type IV fluids in these respects. Exxon HyJet IV-A plus meets the specifications of all major aircraft manufacturers and SAE AS1241.
Features and Benefits
Exxon HyJet IV-A plus offers the following key features and benefits:
| Features | Advantages and Potential Benefits |
|---|---|
| Best in high temperature stability among Type IV fluids | Longer fluid life. Lesser need to replace fluid due to degradation. Reduced hydraulic system maintenance costs |
| Lowest density Type IV fluid | Reduced weight of the hydraulic fluid carried by aircraft. Reduced aircraft fuel consumption, lower operating costs |
| Effective rust protection | Reduced the risk of equipment damage in the event of major water contamination |
| Excellent low temperature flow (viscosity) properties | Precise hydraulic system control and response even during extended range/polar flights. Longer equipment life |
| Excellent deposit control | Longer equipment life. Reduced maintenance costs |
| Excellent protection against electro-chemical corrosion (erosion) | Protection against servo valve and pump damage |
| Approved by all major aircraft manufacturers | Use as fleet lubricant by airline operators |
| Fully compatible with all approved phosphate ester hydraulic fluids | Flexibility in use by airline operators |
Applications
Exxon HyJet IV-A plus fire-resistant aviation hydraulic fluid is used in commercial aircraft hydraulic systems where phosphate hydraulic fluids are recommended.
Exxon HyJet IV-A plus meets or exceeds the following industry and builder specifications. It is approved against the aircraft manufacturer requirements and is included in their Qualified Products Lists.
