Application
Micocal FG-35 is specially designed for use in systems in which the contamination of foods by the heat transfer fluid cannot be excluded. With it's halal certificate it gets high attention in countries like Indonesia.
Micocal FG-35 exhibits very high thermal stability and can be used in the liquid phase in a temperature range of between -15°C and 325°C. The film temperature at the heater must not exceed 345°C.
Despite good thermal stability and a low tendency to oxidize, it is advisable to utilize a nitrogen blanket in the expansion tank during use in high temperature ranges, in order to prevent premature ageing.
Quality
Micocal FG-35 is a catalytically hydro isomerized mineral oil produced in a special process, with a high proportion of isoparaffinic hydrocarbons and an extremely low proportion of sulphur, nitrogen and aromatic compounds. The heat transfer fluid is therefore particularly well suited for use in the food industry.
The base oil is subject to special hydro-cracking, solvent de-waxing and hydro-finishing processes, as well as subsequent distillation, in order to produce a high performance, transparent and almost odorless heat transfer fluid.
Micocal FG-35 has been classified by the NSF as "HT1", i.e. it is approved for applications in which incidental food contact may arise.
Packaging
FRAGOLTHERM FG-35 is available as standard in 205 liter (178 kg) steel drums, in 20,5 liter (17,8 kg) pails and 1000 liter IBCs.
