Your benefits of using Therminol® SP in your thermal oil systems
-
Long lifespan – Therminol® SP offers an excellent cost-performance ratio over the entire life of the fluid, especially compared to traditional mineral oil-based heat transfer fluids.
-
Outstanding resistance to fouling – as a synthetic fluid, Therminol® SP withstands the effects of oxidation 10 times better than mineral oils, resulting in less oxidation and solids formation. This provides significant performance advantages, especially in thermal oil systems without nitrogen blanketing.
-
Superior low-temperature pumpability – Therminol® SP remains pumpable at temperatures as low as -28°C, unlike some mineral oils that fail to pump below -7°C. With Therminol® SP, your heat transfer fluid system can start up quickly and easily.
