FM COOLANT is a propylene glycol-based fluid containing anti-corrosion additives, for use in closed systems to chill or cool food or beverages in Food Industry applications. It is based on a careful blend of synthetic fluids and selected additives chosen for their ability to meet the stringent requirements of the food and beverage industry. Registered by NSF (Class H1) for use where there is potential for incidental food contact. Produced according to FLT Quality Standards, in facilities where HACCP audit and Good Manufacturing Practice have been implemented and form part of the quality and hygiene management systems ISO 9001 and ISO 21469.

Features

• Depress freezing point of water solution
• Improves boiling point of water solution
• Prevents corrosion of materials
• Compatible with commonly used materials
• Long fluid fife: low maintenance cost
• To achieve good corrosion protection a minimum concentration of 30% FM COOLANT should be always be used (even if the required antifreeze protection would already be satisfied at lower concentration)
• Neutral odour and taste

Application

• To be mixed with water to make a solution suitable for application. See tables on next page. The mixing water should have low hardness. If not available the use of demineralised or distilled water is recommended
• For use as secondary cooling, or heating, in the food and beverage industry. For use in closed cooling systems, including those where there is a potential for incidental food contact
• STRICTLY NOT for use in applications where direct contact between coolant and food itself, either packed or unwrapped, will occur: e.g., not for use where food is immersed in coolant for rapid chilling
• Various de-icing, defrosting applications
• Freeze, burst and corrosion protection of pipelines

Industries

• Food

Seal and Paint Compatibility

Compatible with the elastomers, gaskets, seals and paints normally used in food machinery lubrication systems.

Certifications and Specification

• NSF H1
• Kosher
• Halal

Handling and Storage

All food grade lubricants should be stored separately from other lubricants, chemical substances and foodstuffs and out of direct sunlight or other heat sources. Store between 0 C and +40 C. Provided that the product has been stored under these conditions we recommend that the product be used within 2 years from the date of manufacture. Upon opening a pack, the product must be used within 1 year (or within 2 years of date of manufacture, whichever is the sooner).

General Instructions

It is recommended that the condition of the fluid and the equipment be regularly checked to ensure safe operation. Special attention should be given to the possibility that the fluid, especially if it becomes contaminated with food ingredients, becomes a medium for bacterial or fungal growth.
