(1) Classification (Cooling fluid)
(1) Classification:
HF: Heating Fluid
CF: Cooling Fluid
UF: Universal Fluid
(2) Chemical composition:
Si: Silicone oil
EG: Ethylene Glycol
(3) Temperature range: (Minimum temperature� Maximum temperature)
N: Negative Temperature
(4) Viscosity:
Viscosity at 25 °C for Heating Fluid (HF)
Viscosity at -20 °C for Cooling Fluid (CF)
Viscosity at 25 °C for Universal Fluid (UF)
Dynamic viscosity [mPa•s] is a product of kinematic viscosity [mm²/s] and density [kg/m³] of the fluid divided by 1000�
(5) Additional information:
A: Oil Additives
LV: Low Viscosity
Note: for open bath application!
Note: Tap water may be unsuitable for operation because the calcium carbonate content may cause calcification�
High purity water (from icon exchangers) and distilled or bi-distilled water are unsuitable for operation due to corrosive
properties of these media� High purity water and distillates are suitable as a medium after adding 0�1 g soda (Na
sodium carbonate) per liter of water�
Note: The temperature limit values are adjustable in accordance with the fluid used�
