This company has launched an upgraded version of Globaltherm HF, a high-temperature thermal fluid with one of the highest fluid flashpoints (280°C) on the market (photo). Its high flashpoint and blend of additives makes it a durable option for manufacturers operating thermal fluid systems. Globaltherm HF is suitable for applications requiring single-fluid heating and cooling applications, including plastics processing, molding, casting, paint and chemicals. It has an operating range from 5°C up to a maximum bulk temperature of 338°C. This heat transfer fluid delivers superior resistance to sludging and extreme oxidation found in many manufacturing environments, the company says. — Global Heat Transfer Ltd., Stone, Staffordshire, U.K.
