Antifreeze LCX 100

Heat Transfer Fluid With Low Conductivity. Colorless.

Customs no.: 38200000

Description

Antifreeze LCX 100 was specifically developed for use with batteries and battery systems, for example, in electric vehicles. It is not suitable as an engine coolant for conventional internal combustion engines. Conventional coolants have high electrical conductivity, which can cause problems in battery system applications. Thanks to selected inhibitors , Antifreeze LCX 100 maintains extremely low electrical conductivity over a long period of time. This ensures safe operation in electric drive systems. Antifreeze LCX 100 also offers reliable freeze protection down to ‑36°C and efficient heat dissipation. The materials used in modern electrified cooling systems are optimally protected against corrosion. Antifreeze LCX 100 is ready‑to‑use and does not require dilution with water. It contains 50% vol. ethylene glycol. Further dilution with distilled or demineralized water is possible, provided the electrical conductivity of the water does not exceed 2 µS/cm at 25 °C. However, adding water reduces corrosion protection. The proportion of water added should not exceed 10%. While adding ethylene glycol slightly increases antifreeze protection, it can also impair corrosion protection.

Use

Antifreeze LCX 100 is suitable for temperatures between ‑30°C and 90°C. The fluid's stability is confirmed within this temperature range without deposits, turbidity, or other adverse changes. Please note that the stability of electrical conductivity depends on the low‑conductivity materials used in the cooling system and must be tested individually.
Since the development of low conductivity systems is still innovative, the compatibility of the coolant with different materials must be tested for the respective application.
Please note that compatible polymeric materials and elastomers often contain significant amounts of fillers and additives that can impair the electrical conductivity of the coolant. Examples include EPDM, PVC, PA 66, silicone rubber, Viton®, etc.
Manufacturer instructions must always be observed.
Antifreeze LCX 100 can be stored in unopened, airtight containers at a maximum temperature of 30 °C for 1 (one) year. After this time, its usability should be checked by measuring the electrical conductivity and pH value.

Miscibility

Even slight mixing with conventional coolants/antifreeze or other ion‑containing liquids makes this coolantwith low conductivity unusable. To maintain the quality of the coolant, meticulous cleanliness is essential. Close the container of Antifreeze LCX 100 tightly after use.
