Don't be fooled by the manufacturer saying that epoxy has 'high performance under elevated temperatures'. As far as I'm concerned, unless there is a test certificate from an accredited laboratory saying that their product has been tested under the appropriate conditions then the epoxy can not be used where fire resistance is required.

Always adhere to the ICC report, if one is available. Hilti provides these on their website.
Check for the latest info on the website, as I see some recent changes. One is not better than the other, but each will be better for specific uses.
The latest versions seem to be HY 150 MAX and RE 500 SD.
Every kind of chemical anchor is sensitive to installation, even the tolerant ones can fail if installed incorrectly.

All of these things will have an impact on your selection, as each product deals with each condition differently (or doesn't deal with some of them at all.)
Persoanlly, I always use RE500. It deals with all bad conditions, wet holes, oversized holes, etc.. Plus, in my area, it is easier to find as the local supply place stocks it. And I have even been told it is less expensive than the 150. Not sure if that is true though.
