First transmission oil for electric vehicles from ADDINOL

More and more manufacturers are turning to battery-electric drives, hybrid solutions and innovative vehicle concepts. This development is also changing the requirements placed on the operating fluids used. At this point, ADDINOL EV Fluid ET comes in.

Unlike conventional internal combustion engines, electric vehicles place very specific demands on lubricants. In addition to pure lubrication, electrical insulation, thermal stability and efficient cooling play a crucial role, which is why specially developed fluids are required. ADDINOL EV Fluid ET is a transmission oil for electric vehicles and has been developed specifically to meet these challenges, optimally tailored to the requirements of the following vehicle concepts:

• BEV (Battery Electric Vehicles)
• PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles)
• REEV (Range-Extended Electric Vehicles)

High performance at the heart of the electric drive

This synthetic high-performance transmission oil impresses with a balanced combination of protection, efficiency and durability. It is suitable for both wet and dry electric motors and can be used flexibly in electric axles. As electric vehicles generally operate with single- or two-speed drives, very high speeds can occur during operation. These lead to increased thermal and mechanical stress on the oil. Accordingly, high heat resistance and exceptional robustness are crucial, and these are properties that ADDINOL EV Fluid ET reliably fulfils.

Key strengths include:

• Optimised friction behaviour for a quiet and efficient driving experience
• Excellent electrical insulation to protect sensitive components
• High thermal-oxidative stability for clean and long-lasting systems
• Excellent wear protection even under high loads
• Very good cooling properties for consistent power output

Reliability and safety are crucial, particularly in electric mobility. ADDINOL EV Fluid ET helps to extend the service life of gearboxes and electrical components whilst simultaneously increasing the efficiency of the entire drive system. The low viscosity combined with high shear stability ensures minimal energy losses and maximum performance.
