There are many different heat transfer oils manufactured for the US and Canadian market
place. Current CIMLINE Melter Applicator owners have successfully used many different types
and brands of oils. Unfortunately, for liability reasons, we can only stand behind the use of the
oil that we have tested and evaluated for many years. The oil we supply utilizes a 150-Bright
that is custom blended with a combination of additives selected by CIMLINE.
After many heating and cooling cycles, the oil can build up on the internal walls of the oil reser-
voir. This can contribute to slower heat up times and extended wear on the burner and related
components. 1/8” (3.1mm) of build up can have the same effect as approximately 1” (25.4mm)
of insulation. To test every brand of oil for the proper additives to prevent build up and proper
performance would involve years of operation, plus cutting the tank apart for inspection.
Some oils may require an annual flushing to prevent buildup on the oil reservoir walls. This is
time consuming and requires disposal of hazardous material.
The general specifications for 150 Bright Stock is listed below. You may talk to your local oil
supplier for an alternative oil if you choose. The specification below will indicate what has
been successful for over 28 years for CIMLINE. This heat transfer oil is available through
CIMLINE in 5-gallon pails and 30-gallon drums.
