DOWTHERM™ RP Heat Transfer Fluid

What is DOWTHERM™ RP Heat Transfer Fluid?

A synthetic organic heat transfer fluid made of a high purity diaryl alkyl, that provides excellent performance in liquid phase heat transfer systems operating between -4°F and 660°F (-20°C to 350°C).

Uses

For thermally demanding applications and where long fluid life and extended maintenance intervals are desired. Also suitable for single fluid process heating and cooling.
Indirect heat
Liquid phase heat transfer systems
Single fluid heating and cooling
Designed for use in non-pressurized systems
Liquid phase operation only
Good low temperature properties allow for low temperature start-up
Has a high flash point
Good thermal stability at the maximum use temperature
Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be extremely low, LD50 in rats >
15,800 mg/kg
An alternative to hot oils in liquid phase heat transfer applications
Non-pressurized liquid phase heat transfer

Benefits

Can be used in non-pressurized, liquid phase systems
Has good low temperature properties, reducing the need for heat tracing
Has a high flash point
Exhibits excellent thermal stability at the maximum use temperature
Degrades primarily to low molecular weight products—no build-up of high molecular weight products that must be removed from the system.
Has a single dose oral toxicity that is considered to be extremely low
