The new Paratherm LR™ low-range heat transfer fluid is rated for service from -40°F to 400°F (-40°C to 204°C). Non-aromatic, this non-toxic liquid is safe to use and is easy to dispose. Tough and durable, the Paratherm LR fluid is designed for a broad variety of cooling and heating applications. It is engineered to provide extended performance under rugged operating conditions, yet is easy and safe to handle.

Environmental Safety

The LR fluid is plant-friendly and safe to use. The crystal-clear fluid contains no SARA¹.- reportable substances such as chlorinated hydrocarbons, aromatics, heavy metals, or compounds of sulfur and nitrogen.

Fluid Toxicity

The Paratherm LR fluid is non-toxic.  And unlike other heat/cool liquids, it emits no pungent or noxious odors.  Be sure to consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using this product.

Fluid Disposal

Easy to dispose, used or contaminated LR fluid can be safely combined with spent lubricating oils and recycled locally (EPA, citation 57FR21524).  Paratherm strongly encourages recycling of used heat transfer fluid to conserve natural resources and to minimize the problem of liquid waste in landfills.  Please review local, state and federal regulations when you plan to dispose of any material.  Liquids contaminated with chlorinated solvents or other regulated materials may require special handling, and may not be accepted by recyclers.
