Temperature Rating:
Industry accepted design practice for hydraulic systems limits maximum operating temperature to 180° F (82° C), but materials used for fabrication of the reservoirs are capable of operating between -40° and 212° F (-40° and 100° C).
Caution:
Reservoirs are not designed for internal positive or negative pressure applications. For these applications, consult the factory.
