5.1 Heat transfer liquids
Note:
n
The heat transfer liquids each cover a recommended tem-
perature range and must be suitable for the temperature range
of your application.
n
At the lower limit of the temperature range, the heat transfer
liquid becomes more viscous and influences temperature sta-
bility, pump power and cooling capacity. The formation of
vapours and odours increases in the upper range. Therefore,
only use all of the temperature range if required. Particularly
with Aqua 90 (water), ice forms which can result in destruction
of the device.
n
Never use contaminated or degenerated heat transfer liquid.
n
Observe the safety data sheet of the heat transfer liquid. You
can request the safety data sheets of the heat transfer liquid at
any time if required.

Note the following for Kryo 30:
n
The water content is reduced during long operating at higher
temperatures and the mixture becomes flammable (flash point
119°C). Check the mixture ratio using a hydrometer.
n
The alkaline earth ions content (hardness) of the water must be
between 0.71 mmol/l and 1.42 mmol/l (equivalent to 4.0 and
8.0°dH). Harder water results in lime deposits in the device.
n
The pH value of the water must be between 6.0 and 8.5.
n
Distilled, deionised, demineralised (DM) water or seawater
must not be used due to their corrosive properties. Ultra-pure
water and distillates are suitable as a medium after addition of
0.1 g soda (Na

, sodium carbonate) per litre of water.
n
Any chlorine content in the water must be strictly avoided. Do
not add any chlorine to the water. Chlorine is contained, for
example, in cleaning agents and disinfectants.
