FOOD-GRADE HEAT TRANSFER FLUIDS
Founded in 1988, Paratherm Corporation manufactures food-grade, non-toxic Heat
Transfer Fluids (Hot Oils, Thermal Fluids) that provide precise, uniform process
temperature control in non-pressurized closed-loop thermal systems to from -40º
to +650º F (343ºC).
These highly efficient non-fouling NSF, FDA and USDA-Certified fluids are specified
in a broad variety of industrial process applications in addition to food processing.
Paratherm fluids operate in over 3,000 installations world-wide.

LR™
- Specialty Chemical Batch Process Equipment
- Pharmaceutical Production Equipment
- Secondary Coolant ("Brine") Systems
- Continuous Process Applications
In February 2004 the Paratherm LR™, the new heat/chill thermal fluid,
received official Food-Grade
certification (HT1) from NSF®, the organization that continues the United
States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) rigorous component certification
program for food plants.
A non-aqueous chiller fluid,
the Paratherm LR is rated for service from –40ºF to +400ºF (-40ºC to 204ºC).
Non-aromatic and non-toxic, it has demonstrated levels of versatility
and reliability that make it suitable for the toughest processing challenges.
Applications range from lower-temperature batch processing (specialty
chemicals and pharmaceuticals) to a variety of other specialty heating
and cooling requirements.
The LR fluid can also be used as a substitute
fluid in secondary coolant (“brine”) systems, where the primary cooling source is ammonia,
Freon® or possibly liquid nitrogen. It can be used in condensers
and exchangers where water contamination can pose significant safety
issues or freezing problems.
The crystal-clear LR fluid is plant-friendly,
environmentally safe and problem-free. For disposal users can combine
it with other spent lubricating
oils and send it to the recycler.

NF®
- Non-Fouling
- Completely Non-Toxic
- Service Range of 120°F to 650°F
- #1 Heat Transfer Fluid in Meat, Poultry & Seafood Further Processing
The Paratherm NF® heat transfer fluid was certified
food-grade by the FDA and USDA in 1988, and re-certified by the NSF in 2003.
The Paratherm NF fluid also carries food-grade certifications from Canada CFIA,
New Zealand MAF, and OU kosher.
Completely non-toxic,
it is exceptionally safe to use and is easy to dispose. Used fluid can
be safely combined with spent lubricating oils and recycled locally (EPA, citation
57FR21524). The NF fluid is specified in a broad variety of
applications, world wide. It is tough and durable with a proven record of
success under demanding conditions, yet is easy and safe to handle.
The odorless NF® fluid is designed for closed-loop heat transfer systems in
heating, cooking, frying, distilling, blanching and drying applications. It is
also approved, recommended or specified by many, if not most, manufacturers of
the equipment used in these applications.
