Dear Mr, Padberg:
Here is the analysis result of your recent THERIdIHOjL FR-2
sample:
'
.
PROPERTY Acid Number Moisture Viscosity 100* F*
SAMPLE 0.96 mgKOK/gm 642 ppm 60.0 centipoise
Mr* Padberg, the viscosity indicates there might be the possibility of contamination of the heat transfer liquid. Normal viscosities for new material are typically 65 ceatipoises. Our spec calls for & 73 cent!poise maximum* The 69 centipoise
reading is unusually low.
Further evidence that contamination is a possibility is the relatively high moisture content. Our spec calls for 59 parts pet- million msaimursa. Acid number* too* is high* with a spec limit of 9.01 maximum.

Is It possible you have a leak ia your cooking oil to TKEBMINQL heat exchanger? Have you experienced any pumping difficulty considering the high moisture content of the THERMlftQL sample ?
I recommend you send an additional sample as soon as possible so we cam confirm these results as either a temporary situation or a continuing one.
Sincerely,
Jf
