PETRONAS DANOL XHT
High Quality Inhibited Heat Transfer Oil
Petronas Danol XHT is a finest quality heat transfer oil formulated for use in most of
direct and indirect fired heat transfer systems with forced circulation where
the fluid is subjected to the most severe operating conditions.
It is made from premium quality, high viscosity index a n d lo w v o l a t i le base oils
with higher percentage of saturates for its excellent heat transfer properties
(specific heat and thermal conductivity) at all temperatures ensuring more rapid
heating and greater system flexibility. Thermally stable oxidation inhibitor additive
is added to enhance its outstanding thermal and oxidation stability which can easily
resist thermal cracking and chemical oxidation and maintain in solution any
decomposition product that form to maintains heat transfer system efficiency.
Applications
For use in both open and closed heat transfer system with forced circulation. For
closed system, maximum heater outlet temperature is 305 °C and 340 °C maximum
heater wall temperature. For any open system, the operating temperature shall not
exceed 250 °C for safety purposes. Open heating systems provided that the bulk oil
temperature does not exceed 180 °C.
Operating Advice
When starting up new unit or restarting a unit after maintenance work or a unit
operating irregularly, the temperature of the unit should be reduced to around 100 °C
and the steam blow off before returning to the normal operating temperature.
Customer Benefits
Outstanding resistance to thermal cracking and oxidation thus preventing
excessive sludge and coke deposits formation in the oil circulating tubes and
heat exchangers thereby giving longer oil service life.
High thermal conductivity – Fluid heats up quickly for fuel economy and even
heat distribution.
Lower vapor pressure – minimize fluid loss due to evaporation, avoids
vapor lock and hazards of flammability.
Low temperature start-up for prompt circulation.
Non-corrosive to aluminium, brass, bronze, copper and steel.
