Indicative operating temperature -9° / 300°
HIGH-VISCOSITY HEAT TRANSFER OIL
DelcoTerm® M 100 is a mineral oil with a mainly paraffinic base, selected, refined and treated with processes that improve its physical and chemical characteristics, making it particularly suitable for use, in the liquid phase only, as a heat transfer fluid in hot oil systems. It is an oil with a narrow distillation range, light straw colour, low toxicity by inhalation and ingestion, very low vapour pressure, easy and safe handling, good demulsibility, practically no solubility in water and with physical and chemical characteristics able to meet all the requirements of a mineral heat transfer fluid.
DelcoTerm® M 100 has high distillation (2%) and flash points, low vapour pressure, absolute chemical inertness towards all materials used in hot oil circuits and good cold pumpability, placing it among the best heat transfer oils on the market. It has excellent chemical and thermal stability and is therefore particularly resistant to all the classic deterioration phenomena, such as oxidation and cracking, to which an oil is normally subjected in hot oil systems.
If properly protected from atmospheric oxygen, used within the prescribed temperature limits and correctly monitored and maintained, DelcoTerm® M 100 has a practically unlimited life. There are cases of well-managed charges, regularly included in the D.E.L.CO. “scheduled preventive maintenance” programme, that have already exceeded 35–40 years of service without significant changes in the oil's physical and chemical characteristics.
