Propylene Glycol
What is Propylene Glycol used for?
Propylene glycol is used in the refrigeration and air conditioning technology industry and in the food processing industry to cool refrigeration systems. This glycol ensures that your refrigeration or freezer lasts longer and is not affected by factors such as rust and limescale. Without the use of glycols, the lifespan of your equipment will be significantly shorter.
Applications of Propylene Glycol
Undiluted/diluted coolant based on propylene glycol is suitable for use in virtually all types of refrigeration systems. Huchem glycols contain additives to prevent rust and scale formation. This significantly extends the lifespan of the equipment and ensures high process continuity.
The fluid can be easily added to systems already equipped with a glycol-based coolant. The Axti Temp P is colorless/transparent as standard, but can also be supplied in blue and red (upon request).
Instructions for Use
When restarting, empty the entire system and clean/flush it thoroughly. Then add the desired amount of glycol. Allow the system to slowly reach operating temperature and allow any air bubbles to escape. If necessary, top up the system to the desired level.
Mixing ratio
- 20% product - 80% demineralized water = protection down to -6 degrees Celsius
- 30% product - 70% demineralized water = protection down to -13 degrees Celsius
- 40% product - 60% demineralized water = protection down to -21 degrees Celsius
- 50% product - 50% demineralized water = protection down to -33 degrees Celsius
As mentioned above, Huchem also supplies pure propylene glycol; see Propylene Glycol 100%. Propylene Glycol is also available in various sizes. For smaller users, you can order a 20-liter can through our webshop. Would you like to order a specific mixing ratio or quantity? Please feel free to contact us.
Attention! We cannot accept returns for glycols that are not included in our standard range, such as those with specific percentages. Please note: We cannot accept returns for glycols mixed with a dye.
