Cassida Fluid DC 32

Speciality direct contact fluid for food processing applications in the food manufacturing industry

Cassida Fluid DC 32 main applications:

  • Absorber oil for edible oil extraction plant solvent recovery systems.
  • Forming oil for the manufacture of both two and three piece cans for food and beverages.
  • Heat transfer systems in the food industry with a bulk oil temperature range of approximately -30°C to +280°C where the surface temperature of the heating elements (oil film temperature) should not exceed +320°C.

Cassida Fluid DC 32 is a multipurpose fluid designed for a number of special applications in the food manufacturing industry, including absorber oil for edible oil solvent recovery systems, canforming and closed circuit/pressureless heat transfer systems. Cassida Fluid DC 32 has been specially developed to meet the stringent requirements of the food industry. Cassida DC 32 is based on a careful blend of synthetic fluids chosen for their ability to meet the stringent requirements of the food industry.

Product Description

Details

Cassida Fluid DC 32 Performance, Features & Benefits:

Registered by NSF for use in both direct contact applications (Class 3H) and where there is potential for incidental food contact (Classes H1 and HT1). Cassida Fluid DC 32 contains only substances permitted under US 21 CFR 172.878 for direct contact applications and under US 21 CFR 178.3570, 178.3620, and 182 for use in lubricants with incidental food contact.

  • + Approved for direct food contact
  • + Low volatility resulting in reduced carryover into edible oil product when used as absorber oil
  • + High viscosity index results in minimum variation of viscosity with change in temperature. This facilitates pump selection.
  • + Wide temperature range for application
  • + High temperature and oxidation stability
  • + Cassida Fluid DC 32 has a neutral odour and taste
     

Seal & Paint Compatibility of Cassida Fluid DC 32

Compatible with the elastomers, gaskets, seals and paints normally used in food machinery lubrication systems.
 

Synthetic lubricant

  • Cassida Fluid DC 32 does not contain natural products derived from animals or genetically modified organisms (GMO).
  • Intoleranceinducing substances as specified in Annex IIIa of EC directive 2003/89/EC
  • Suitable for use where vegetarian and ‘nut-free’ food is prepared.

Operating temperatures

When used as a heat transfer fluid, care should be taken to ensure sufficient flow rate to avoid even a temporary overheating of the heat transfer fluid. Reynolds-Number should be >10,000 (ten thousand). This is most important during start up and shut down of the heating system. The surface temperature of the heating elements (film temperature) should not exceed 320°C. The physical parameters of the oil necessary for the calculation of the heat transfer coefficient in the system, such as density, specific heat and coefficient of thermal conductivity are indicated in the table below.
 

"Incidental Food contact"

Registered by NSF as 3H, H1 and HT1, the product meets the USDA guidelines (1998) for lubricants for use where direct contact with food can occur and is also suitable for uses where there is a potential for incidental food contact. Made only from substances permitted under the US FDA Title 21 CFR 172.878, 178.3570, 178.3620. Although this product is approved for direct contact applications, it is recommended that care should be taken to minimise the amount of the material coming into contact with foodstuffs. JECFA has recommended that the allowable daily intake for this type of product be limited to no more than 6 mg/kg body weight – which for an average individual would correspond to an average of 120 ppm maximum in foodstuffs. In locations and/or applications where local legislation does not specify maximum concentration limits, it is recommended that this same 120 ppm limit be observed. Cassida Fluid DC 32 will not impart undesirable taste, odour or colour to food, nor will cause adverse health effects. Consistent with good manufacturing practice, use should be minimised and appropriate corrective action should be taken in the event of detection of excessive contamination of food by Cassida Fluid DC 32.
 

Protect the environment

Take used lubricants and empty packs to an authorised collection point. Do not discharge into drains, soil or water.

Health & Safety

Based on information available, Cassida Fluid DC 32 is unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application and good standards of industrial and personal hygiene are maintained. As for all oils, prolonged or repeated contact with the skin should be avoided. For further information refer to the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet.
 

Oil condition during use

It is recommended that the condition of the oil and the equipment be regularly checked to ensure safe operation.
 

Handling & storage

All food grade lubricants, such as Cassida Fluid DC 32, should be stored separately, out of direct sunlight or other heat sources, from other lubricants, chemical substances and foodstuffs. Store between 0°C and 40°C. Provided that the product has been stored under these conditions we recommend that the product be used within 5 years from the date of manufacture. Accept for use new Cassida Fluid DC 32 only if the manufacturer's seal is intact. Before opening the pack ensure the area around the closure is clean. It is recommended that it be cleaned with CASSIDA FLUID PL and/or potable water and then dried with a clean cloth before opening. Record the date the seal was broken. To prevent product contamination, always close the package after use. Upon opening a pack, the product must be used within 2 years (or within 5 years of date of manufacture, whichever is the sooner).
