01

The short answer

Quick answer

NOBURST is Noble Company's family of propylene glycol antifreeze and heat-transfer fluids, inhibited with dipotassium phosphate. The -100 in NOBURST -100 is its burst point, not its freeze point: Noble rates it to freeze at -60 °F and burst at -100 °F. Our Propylene Glycol 60% Inhibited freezes at about -59.9 °F typical, and our premixes match each diluted NOBURST and RTU blend by freeze point. Our inhibitor is a nitrite-containing hybrid organic-acid package, not phosphate, so this is an alternative, not the same fluid.

Questions

What does the -100 in NOBURST -100 mean?

It is the burst point in °F, not the freeze point and not a concentration. Noble rates NOBURST -100 to freeze at -60 °F and burst at -100 °F. Freeze point is where the first ice crystal forms; burst point is where the fluid turns solid and can split a pipe. Compare freeze point to freeze point and burst point to burst point, never one against the other.

Which of your products matches NOBURST -100?

Our Propylene Glycol 60% Inhibited: about -59.9 °F typical, the same freeze point as NOBURST -100, with a guaranteed maximum of -58 °F. We do not publish burst ratings; we design to freeze point.

Which of your products matches NOBURST RTU30, RTU35 or RTU40?

RTU30 (11 °F): our 30/70 at about 9 °F. RTU35 (0 °F) and RTU40 (-6 °F): our 40/60 at about -6 °F. Our 35/65 freezes at about 2 °F, which is warmer than RTU35, so we do not point RTU35 users to it.

Can I top up a NOBURST system with your fluid?

No. NOBURST uses a phosphate inhibitor and ours is a nitrite-containing organic-acid package. Do not mix inhibitor chemistries. Drain, flush with deionized water and refill.

Do you have something for NOBURST HD or NOBURST AL systems?

Not as a published rating. We publish no 325 °F rating like NOBURST HD and no aluminum rating for our propylene glycol like NOBURST AL. Send your system details with a quote request before using ours in those systems.

Is your propylene glycol food grade?

No. Noble describes NOBURST's ingredients as GRAS; ours is not food grade and is not for food contact or potable water.

Can you add dye?

Yes. Our fluid ships undyed; green or purple leak-detection dye can be pre-mixed on request.
