Specifications Table
Galden HT fluids have excellent thermal and chemical stability,
giving them good compatibility with materials. Thus, Galden HT
fluids will not corrode or react with construction materials, nor
will residues form from decomposition, corrosion, or fluid
degradation.
Galden Heat Transfer Fluids are perfluorinated compounds that
provide effective heat transfer both in direct and indirect cooling
applications. Their unique compatibility with sensitive components
makes them particularly suitable for direct cooling applications.
Direct immersion cooling provides for more effective heat removal
and therefore helps to keep the components’ temperatures constant.
As a result, the failure rate is lower and the package size can be
minimized
The low relative viscosity of Galden HT fluids and their wide
operating temperature range permit them to act as heat transfer
liquids in extreme conditions.
Respiratory protection
- No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required.
- Use respirator when performing operations involving potential
exposure to vapour of the product.
- Use NIOSH approved respiratory protection.
- Comply with OSHA respiratory protection requirements.
- In case of decomposition (see section 10), use an air breathing
apparatus with face mask.
- Use only respiratory protection that conforms to international/
national standards.
Hand protection
- Wear protective gloves.
- Protective gloves - impervious chemical resistant:
- Suitable material: Nitrile rubber, PVC, Neoprene gloves,
butyl-rubber
- Take note of the information given by the producer concerning
permeability
Hygiene measures
- Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the
workstation location.
- When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. - Wash hands before
breaks and at the end of workday.
- Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety
practice.
Waste from residues / unused products
- Do not dump into any sewers, on the ground, or into any body of
water. All disposal methods must be in
compliance with all Federal, State/Provincial and local laws and
regulations. Regulations may vary in
different locations.
- Waste characterizations and compliance with applicable laws and
regulations are the responsiblity of the
waste generator.
- Can be incinerated, when in compliance with local regulations.
- The incinerator must be equipped with a system for the
neutralisation or recovery of HF.
Other information
- Description of possible hazardous to health effects is based on
experience and/or toxicological characteristics of several
components. - The thermal decomposition vapours of fluorinated
polymers may cause polymer fume fever with flu-like symptoms in
humans, especially when smoking contaminated tobacco. - Thermal
decomposition can lead to release of toxic and corrosive gases. -
Exposure to decomposition products - Causes severe irritation of
eyes, skin and mucous membranes.
