PETRO-THERM /PETRO-THERM PPD HEAT TRANSFER OIL

TM

Introduction
Petro-Therm is a heat transfer oil developed for use in non-pressurized, liquid phase heat transfer systems operating at bulk fluid temperatures up to 315C (599F). It is specifically formulated to provide long service life and excellent thermal efficiency in a variety of industrial applications while resisting oxidative and thermal degradation.
TM

economical service in various industrial process applications such as asphalt plants, marine, wood processing, dry kilns and institutional laundry and heating. To inquire on a specific application or for technical service advice, contact your Petro-Canada representative.

Service Life
Petro-Therm has been designed to provide long service life under normal operating conditions up to the fluids maximum recommended temperature. However, actual fluid life is dependent upon system design and maintenance practices. It is recommended that the oils condition be monitored on a regular basis as the rate of change of physical characteristics is more significant than the actual values.

Petro-Therm PPD can be used for cold start-ups at low ambient temperatures.

Features and Benefits

Excellent thermal stability Resists high temperature degradation Long fluid life Low fluid make-up Minimizes sludge and coke formation Helps to lower maintenance costs Good physical properties at an economical price High thermal efficiency over a wide temperature range Easy system start-up Low vapour pressure Resists corrosion Not considered a toxic* substance according to OSHA (United States), WHMIS (Canada) and DPD (Europe) criteria.

Disposal
Used Petro-Therm may be responsibly disposed in the following ways**: through re-sale to used oil recycling companies in some jurisdictions, combined with BTU recovery systems The empty drums are readily accepted by drum reconditioners.

Applications
Petro-Therm is recommended for use in non pressurized, liquid phase, closed heat transfer systems operating with bulk fluid temperatures up to 315C (599F). For cold start-ups at low ambient temperatures, Petro-Therm PPD is recommended. Petro-Therm will give long,
*non-toxic defined as non-controlled under WHMIS, non-hazardous under OSHA and non-dangerous under DPD. **Any transport and disposal practice must be in compliance with federal, state, provincial and/or local laws and regulations.
