Coolflow Process Cooling Fluids
for Pastoral Agriculture

Summary - Rating: ASuitable for food & beverage process cooling and other applications where a non-toxic classification is preferred. High efficiency and more cost effective than MPG based coolants.

Efficiency - Rating: BHigh thermal conductivity and low viscosity at sub-zero temperatures, results in increased heat transfer efficiency and reduced energy demands.

Antifreeze - Rating: AProvides protection down to -50°C and lower concentration (% volume) is required to achieve the same freeze-point protection, when compared with NTP, USP, ECO2 and ECO3.

Corrosion Control - Rating: ALong-Life formulation with synergistic corrosion inhibitors to exceed BS6580 and ASTM D1384 standards. Also contains broad-spectrum biological inhibitors and polyacrylates to prevent scale precipitation.

Toxicity - Rating: AClassified as Non-Toxic and Food-Safe. Suitable for food & beverage processing systems and where low-toxicity is stipulated. LD50 Oral Rat >20,000mg/kg body weight.

Summary - Rating: BSuitable for food & beverage processing and other applications where a pharmaceutical classification is preferred. Average efficiency and relatively high cost per litre.

Efficiency - Rating: CLow Thermal Conductivity and high Viscosity at sub-zero temperatures, results in reduced heat transfer efficiency and increased energy demands. Good Specific Heat capacity helps improve overall performance.

Antifreeze - Rating: BProvides protection down to -50°C but greater concentration (% volume) is required to achieve the same freeze-point protection, compared with DTX, IGE and LVF.

Corrosion Control - Rating: BPharmaceutical formulation with synergistic corrosion inhibitors to exceed BS6580 and ASTM D1384 standards. Also contains biological inhibitors and polyacrylates to prevent scale precipitation.

Toxicity - Rating: AClassified as Non-Toxic and Food-Safe. Suitable for food & beverage processing systems and where low-toxicity is preferred. LD50 Oral Rat >20,000mg/kg body weight.

Summary - Rating: BExcellent heat transfer and pumping characteristics, low toxicity but can prove a challenge to eliminate corrosion in some systems.

Efficiency - Rating: AExcellent heat transfer and pumping characteristics places LVF at the top of the efficiency tree, for all water-based antifreeze solutions.

Antifreeze - Rating: ADepending on concentration can provide freeze protection down to -60°C.

Corrosion Control - Rating: CCorrosive when in contact with air and only recommend for certain metals and closed loop pressurised systems.

Toxicity - Rating: BLD50 (Oral Rat) of 7,000 to 20,000 mg/kg body weight depending on concentration in water. Not FDA approved as a food additive, but can be considered food-safe and widely used in food & beverage cooling systems.

Summary - Rating: BSuitable for systems where low environmental impact and ecological sustainability is preferred. Average efficiency but lower in cost compared with MPG based fluids.
