Bath liquids
The bath must be filled with a liquid suitable for the
minimum operating temperature.
It is very important to select a liquid with a viscosity
preferably less (e.g. 3 mm²/s) at the operating
temperature and a flash point which is well above
the operating temperature.
The best bath liquid to be used is methanol,
enabling circulation at very low temperatures.
Methanol is extremely flammable and can cause fire
hazard. Take all necessary precautions to reduce fire
hazard.
When using methanol all vapors must be removed by
using appropriate air ventilation.
Methanol is toxic and can cause health risks. Use
appropriate ventilation and other precautions to prevent
inhaling toxic vapors. If ventilation is insufficient the risk
of explosion hazards can occur!
The supplier of the bath liquid (methanol) will be able to
hand over all chemical details and safety precautions
related to the use of methanol. These precautions must
be followed when operating the bath.
