281 HEAT TRANSFER OIL

5 Gallon Pail

Heat Transfer Oil is a non-corrosive, non-fouling, paraffinic heat transfer fluid
that is formulated to provide fast and efficient heat transfer when used in open
loop or closed system applications with expansion tank temperatures up to 600F
(315C). Heat Transfer Oil’s operability temperature is from 20°F (-7°C) to a
maximum film temperature of 600°F (315°C)
Heat Transfer Oil is blended from the finest select high viscosity index severely
solvent refined, severely hydrotreated 100% pure paraffin base oils available.
These 100% pure paraffin base oils allow Heat Transfer Oil to exhibit the
following performance characteristics:
1. High Viscosity Index – This results in a minimum change in viscosity over a
broad temperature range.
2. High Thermal and Oxidative Stability – This results in the product having
resistance to cracking, carbon, sludge, varnish and lacquer formation during
high temperature operation.
3. Low Volatility Characteristics – The low volatility of paraffin base oils
results in lower makeup requirements, eliminates vapor lock in circulating
pumps and reduces the possibility of cavitation.
4. Flash and Fire Points Significantly Above 400F (204C) and AutoIgnition Temperature Above 608F (320C).
Besides these performance benefits Heat Transfer Oil also offers the following
benefits:
1. High thermal efficiency for rapid and efficient transfer of heat.
2. Low vapor pressure at elevated temperatures and high boiling point to
prevent pressure build-up.
3. Non-corrosive to system parts.
4. Excellent hydrolytic stability and resistance to emulsification with water.
5. Excellent compatibility with other petroleum base heat transfer oils.
6. Excellent compatibility with all types of seals, materials of construction and
finishes commonly used in heat transfer systems.
7. Non-fouling on degradation.
8. Virtually odorless and essentially non-toxic.
9. Long service life for proven trouble-free operation.
