"Incidental Food contact"

Registered by NSF (Class H1) and meets the USDA H1 guidelines (1998) for lubricants for use where there is a potential for incidental food contact. Certified by NSF for ISO 21469, Safety of machinery, Lubricants with incidental product contact, Hygiene requirements. Made only from substances permitted under the US FDA Title 21 CFR 178.3570, 178.3620 and/or those generally regarded as safe (US 21 CFR 182) for use in food grade lubricants. To comply with the requirements of US 21 CFR 178.3570, contact with food should be avoided where possible. In the case of incidental food contact, the concentration of this product in the food must not exceed 10 parts per million (10mg/kg of foodstuff). In locations and/or applications where local legislation does not specify maximum concentration limits, it is recommended that this same 10 ppm limit be observed, as up to this concentration CASSIDA FLUID GLE 150 will not impart undesirable taste, odour or colour to food, nor will cause adverse health effects. Consistent with good manufacturing practice, use only the amount necessary to achieve correct lubrication and take appropriate corrective action should excessive incidental contact with food be detected.

Typical Physical Characteristics of CASSIDA FLUID GLE 150

Is Shell Cassida Fluid GLE 150 the same as Fuchs Cassida Fluid GLE 150?

Fuchs Cassida are speciality lubricants designed for use in the food industry. Fuchs Cassida products have the same properties as Shell Cassida because Fuchs acquired Shell's food-safe line in 2008. They are widely used in the food and beverage industry. However, it is important to choose the right lubricant based on the specific application and equipment requirements.

What is the viscosity of Fuchs Cassida Fluid GLE 150 and how is it affected?

Fuchs Cassida Fluid GLE 150 has a kinematic viscosity of 150 mm²/s at 40°C. Viscosity can be affected by several factors, including operating temperature, machine component loads and the type of equipment used. At higher temperatures, the viscosity of the fluid will decrease, while at higher loads the viscosity may increase. It is important to choose the right viscosity for the specific application to ensure optimum lubrication.
