Product Description

Thermaflo® SH is a reclaimed synthetic heat transfer fluid composed of dibenzyl toluene isomers, engineered for demanding liquid-phase thermal management in closed-loop, non-pressurized systems. This aromatic-based fluid delivers outstanding performance across a wide operating envelope from -5°C to 350°C (-23°F to 662°F), with intermittent film temperature capability to 380°C (716°F). The dibenzyl toluene chemistry provides inherent thermal resilience—the planar aromatic ring structure with conjugated double bonds creates molecular stability that resists breakdown at sustained high temperatures. As a direct-compatible makeup fluid for existing dibenzyl toluene systems, Thermaflo® SH offers a cost-effective solution for maintaining or expanding thermal fluid inventory.

  • Wide Operating Envelope: Functions reliably from -5°C to 350°C in liquid phase without system pressurization, eliminating the complexity and cost of pressure-rated equipment.
  • Exceptional Flash Point: At 200°C (392°F), provides substantial safety margins—one of the highest flash points available in synthetic heat transfer fluids.
  • Minimal Vapor Pressure: At only 4 psi at 316°C (600°F), enables atmospheric operation at elevated temperatures while reducing vapor losses.
  • Cold-Start Capability: Pumpable down to -5°C (-23°F), allowing system start-up without auxiliary heat tracing in most temperate climates.
