Heat transfer Oils
Product Description
Mobiltherm heat transfer oils are high performance products intended for use in closed indirect heating installations. They
are formulated from highly refined base stocks that are resistant to thermal cracking and chemical oxidation. They have good
heat transfer efficiency and their viscosities are such that they can be pumped readily at both start-up and operating
temperatures. The flash points of these oils will not decrease significantly in service because of their resistance to thermal
cracking at the operating temperatures for which they are recommended. The Mobiltherm products are very thermally stable
and are capable of an extremely long service life without deposit formation or viscosity increase. They demonstrate specific
heats and thermal conductivities that provide more rapid heat dissipation. Mobiltherm heat transfer oils are recommended
for use in both closed and open, cold-oil sealed, indirect heating and cooling systems in all kinds of industrial processes.
Features and Benefits

Mobiltherm oils are important member of the Mobil brand of specialty fluids that have gained a reputation for performance
and reliability, even in severe applications. Application of the most modern refining techniques is a key factor in the excellent
features of these products.
Mobiltherm 603 and 605 offer the following benefits:
Features Advantages and Potential Benefits

Freedom from sludge and coke deposits and minimum
High resistance to thermal cracking and decomposition interference with heat transfer capability and minimised
maintenance needs
High heat transfer rates and improved operating efficiency
Excellent thermal properties
and lower operating costs
Good thermal and oxidative stability Long trouble free service life and reduced downtime
Good low temperature fluidity Easy starting of cold systems
Applications
Application Considerations: Mobiltherm heat transfer oils should not be mixed with other oils since this may impair the
excellent thermal and oxidation stability of the Mobiltherm oils, cause a change in other properties, and complicate the
interpretation of analyses made to determine the oil's useful life. If the oils are used above their recommended maximum
temperatures, vapor lock may result unless the system is designed to operate at the higher temperature by pressurising
with an inert gas such as nitrogen. However, at higher temperatures, fluid life will be shortened because the rate of thermal
degradation increases markedly as temperatures rise above the recommended limit. In well-designed systems the
temperature of the oil film surrounding the heating element should be about 15ºC to 30ºC above the bulk oil temperature. If
higher than this, the service life of the oil may be shortened and sludge and coke may be deposited which would interfere
with the heat transfer rates. As with other mineral oils, Mobiltherm heat transfer oils should be used only in systems with
forced circulation. Systems that depend on convection for circulation of the heat transfer medium do not provide a rapid
enough flow to prevent local overheating and rapid deterioration of the oil. Further, these oils are not recommended for use
in open systems where hot oil is exposed directly to the air. If they spray or escape from leakage points, hot Mobiltherm oils
may spontaneously ignite.
Mobiltherm 603 and Mobiltherm 605 can be used in open and closed installations where the bulk oil temperature ranges
are as outlined in the table below and where minimum shutdown temperatures are not below -12º C.
