Mobiltherm heat transfer oils are high performance products intended for use in closed indirect heating installations. They are recommended for use in
cold-oil sealed, indirect heating and cooling systems in all kinds of industrial processes.

Mobiltherm heat transfer oils are formulated from highly refined base stocks that are resistant to thermal cracking and chemical oxidation. They are very
thermally stable and are capable of an extremely long service life without deposit formation or viscosity increase.

Mobiltherm heat transfer oils have good heat transfer efficiency and their viscosities are such that they can be pumped readily at both start-up and
operating temperatures. They demonstrate specific heat and thermal conductivities that provide more rapid heat dissipation. The flash points of these oils
will not decrease significantly in service because of their resistance to thermal cracking at the operating temperatures for which they are recommended.

Applications

Application Considerations: Mobiltherm heat transfer oils should not be mixed with other oils since this may impair the excellent thermal and oxidation
stability resulting in a change in other properties, and complicate analyses aimed at determining useful oil life. If the oils are used above their
recommended maximum temperatures, vapor lock may result unless the system is designed to operate at the higher temperature by pressurizing with an
inert gas such as nitrogen. At higher temperatures, fluid life will be shortened because the rate of thermal degradation which increases markedly as
temperatures rise above the recommended limit. In well-designed systems the temperature of the oil film surrounding the heating element should be
about 15ºC to 30ºC above the bulk oil temperature. If higher than this, the service life of the oil may be shortened and sludge and coke may be deposited
which would interfere with the heat transfer rates.

As with other mineral oils, Mobiltherm heat transfer oils should be used only in systems with forced circulation. Systems that depend on convection for
circulation of the heat transfer medium do not provide a rapid enough flow to prevent local overheating and rapid deterioration of the oil. Further, these
oils are not recommended for use in open systems where hot oil is exposed directly to the air. If they spray or escape from leakage points, hot Mobiltherm
oils may spontaneously ignite.
