Tergo Chlorine-Free Cleaning Fluid is an extremely strong, non-flammable, non-chlorinated solvent for use in vapor degreasers. It has excellent material compatibility and is designed to work at normal vapor-degreasing temperatures. This Technical Information Sheet summarizes product properties, applications, safety, health, environmental and regulatory information. Users should also consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for additional information.
Tergo Chlorine-Free Cleaning Fluid (CFCF) is an environmentally advanced vapor degreasing solvent. This diverse fluid has a boiling point consistent with historical vapor-degreasing solvents and can clean a wide variety of soils while maintaining excellent material compatibility. Tergo CFCF demonstrates low surface tension and high liquid density, which maximizes cleaning efficiency. It has been designed to work in commonly designed two-sump vapor degreasers, allowing for broad acceptance and minimizing new equipment requirements.
This new technology can remove no-clean, lead-free and RMA fluxes off of delicate substrates such as flexible circuitry or remove stubborn buffing compounds that are impregnated into bearing raceways. It is also very effective at displacing and removing fine particulates. Tergo CFCF has very high soil loading capability, which translates into lower solvent costs through long fluid bath life. This fluid has a high vapor density which further extends solvent conservation as the vapors are easily condensed and precipitate back into the machine instead of being dragged out with the parts being cleaned.
The vapor degreasing process with Tergo CFCF allows for maximum cleaning flexibility and broad compatibility with plastics and elastomers. This innovative fluid eliminates the dependence on chlorinated solvent additives, which are traditionally used to enhance the aggression of milder fluorinated fluids.
Application
Tergo Chlorine-Free Cleaning Fluid is designed for use in a 3-sump vapor degreaser. Existing vapor degreasers will require an engineering analysis to assure cleanliness and production throughput. Achieving higher levels of production throughput with existing vapor degreasers may require auxiliary equipment.
