5.2. Bath fluids
Caution:
No liability for use of other bath fluids!
Do not use flammable bath fluids!
Water: The quality of water depends on local conditions.
 Due to the high concentration of lime, hard water is not suitable for
temperature control because it leads to calcification in the bath.
 Ferrous water can cause corrosion - even on stainless steel.
 Chloric water can cause pitting corrosion.
 Distilled and deionized water is unsuitable. Their special properties cause
corrosion in the bath, even in stainless steel.
Recommended bath fluids:
Bath fluid Temperature range
soft/decalcified water 5 °C to 80 °C
See website for list of recommended bath fluids.

JULABO takes no responsibility for damages caused by the selection of an
unsuitable bath fluid.

 are very highly viscous
(much higher than 30 mm
2
/s at the respective working temperature)
 have corrosive characteristics or
 tend to cracking.
