LAUDA Heat transfer liquids

Product catalog summary
Introduction
LAUDA constant temperature equipment is engineered for precise temperature control, utilizing specific heat transfer liquids suitable for temperatures ranging from −95 to 350 °C. The selection of appropriate liquids, such as water, water-glycol mixtures, polyethylene glycol, mineral, and silicone oils, is crucial for efficient heat transfer. Safety and technical data sheets are accessible on the LAUDA website.
Product Lines
The document details the compatibility of various heat transfer liquids with LAUDA product lines, stressing the importance of avoiding contaminated or mixed liquids, even within the same chemical class.
Therm Overview
LAUDA's 'Therm' and 'Kryo' product lines cater to temperatures above and below 0 °C, respectively. Each product is specified by its chemical composition, temperature range, and material compatibility.
Key Products
  • Aqua 90: Water-based for open systems, 5 to 90 °C, no corrosion inhibitors.
  • Therm 160: Polyalkylene glycol-based, 60 to 160 °C, water-soluble, incompatible with polycarbonate.
  • Therm 180: Polydimethylsiloxane-based, 0 to 180 °C, inert and eco-friendly.
  • Therm 250: Polymethylphenylsiloxane-based, 50 to 250 °C, for high temperatures.
  • Ultra 301: White mineral oil, 40 to 230 °C in open systems, up to 300 °C in closed systems, for surface-sensitive applications.

LAUDA constant temperature equipment consists of highly precise machines that are optimally designed for temperature control. This includes precise control when approaching the setpoint, maintaining a constant value, and command of change when dynamically moving between setpoints. This precision can only be achieved in conjunction with a heat transfer liquid that harmonizes perfectly with the equipment and is also approved for the required temperature range. The selection of the correct heat transfer liquid is also crucial for the efficiency of the heat transfer. In this respect, the working...

Lauda product lines The table below shows the appropriate heat transfer liquids for each product line. Not all heat transfer liquids can be used for all product lines. When selecting a heat transfer liquid, the working temperature, the information in the operating manual and application specific features need to be observed. Product line Notes • Never use contaminated heat transfer liquids. Contamination of the pump chamber can lead to blocking of the pump and thus to shutdown of the device. • Never mix different heat transfer liquids together, even if the substance class or the chemical characterization...

Kryo The recommended working temperature range gives you the lowest and the highest temperature for the use of the respective heat transfer medium. At the lower limit of the temperature range of the heat transfer fluid, a degradation of the temperature control properties is to be expected due to the increasing viscosity. At the upper limit of the heat transfer fluid, increased thermal decomposition is to be expected. Heat transfer fluid / Chemical substance class Temperature range for open/half-open systems Part Number In open systems the heat transfer liquid is in direct contact with ambient...
