Sales & Service, Inc. (SSI) is the Exclusive NAFTA Sales & Distribution for Galden fluids used in Electronics Testing, Vapor Phase Solder Reflow, EV/charger cooling, and Data-Center immersion.
Positioned for higher temperature thermal shock regimes, D05 leverages an elevated boiling point and robust stability to support aggressive operating conditions while protecting sensitive components. The result is extended process windows, consistent heat transfer, and clean operation suited for demanding reliability test environments.
Galden® D05 is an excellent replacement for 3M Novec FC 70.
Thermal shock — Hot bath
Preferred where elevated hot-step setpoints are required (shown at 200 °C in MIL-STD-883 matrices), typically paired with D02/D02TS or LN₂ for cold.
Liquid Burn-In Testing — Dielectric Heat-Transfer Bath
Highest bp here provides additional thermal headroom for hot soak fixtures.
High-Voltage / Hipot Soak & Flashover Screening
Insulating bath for elevated-temperature hipot/flashover screens.
Trace-Residue Elimination & Inspection Rinse
Low viscosity enables flushing; higher bp supports heated rinses without excessive evaporation.
Custom Liquid Cooling in Test Rigs & Fixtures
Best for the hottest fixture loops/baths requiring stable performance near ~230 °C.
Electronic & Semiconductor Manufacturing Adjunct Tests
Defined bp (~230 °C) enables property-based vapor/liquid steps in fixtures and lab protocols.
Chemical Processing & Aerospace Test Support (Property-Based Fit)
Inert, non-flammable, stable liquid for demanding environmental or reactive setups.
