Klüber Lubrication Offers Heat Transfer Oils for Open or Closed Heating and Cooling Systems

August 29, 2019
Klüber Lubrication, a worldwide manufacturer of specialty lubricants, introduces heat transfer oils for use in open or closed heating and cooling systems in the wood-processing industry. 

Lubricants used in wood processing must withstand extreme temperatures, high loads and aggressive media. The excellent thermal properties of new heat transfer oils from Klüber Lubrication make them ideal for wood-processing applications. Specially formulated for use in indirect closed heating units, the high resistance of these oils to thermal degradation ensures reliable, lasting performance. With good oxidation stability, the oils protect equipment and prevent deposit formation. They maintain viscosity, even in low temperatures, and have a long service life. 

Klüberfluid HT 1 Series is a highly refined mineral oil heat transfer fluid that offers excellent thermal stability. Its advanced formulation supports long service life without viscosity changes or deposit formation. 

Klüberfluid HT 4 US Series is a synthetic heat transfer oil designed to overcome heat stress that high-temperature heat transfer mediums endure. Its synthetic hydrocarbon base stock combats issues related to carbon formation as well as extends fluid life compared to petroleum-based fluids. The extremely low vapor pressure and subzero pour points of the oil increase efficiency and reduce pressure buildup and evaporation losses. 

The tough requirements of the wood-processing industry demand high-performance lubricants. The advanced formulations of new heat transfer oils from Klüber Lubrication ensure reliable performance under extreme heat-related stress.
