Optional Equipment Installation
This section addresses the installation of optional equipment for
the Dimension 200: the Mist Coolant System, the T-Vac Vacuum
System, High Frequency Spindle and Speed Controller, and the
Engraver and vacuum.
Mist Coolant System
The Mist Coolant System option is used to cool and lubricate the
cutting tool as it cuts metals such as aluminum or brass. It is not
intended for use with non-metallic materials such as wood or
plastic.
The Mist Coolant System is equipped with an 8½ oz. coolant
reservoir that can be filled under pressure with no need to
disconnect air input or stop the system. The coolant drip rate is
easily adjustable from one drop every six minutes to 30 drops per
minute.
The Mist Coolant System requires 30-100 psi of compressed air.
The compressor is purchased separately.
The Mist Coolant System is designed to be used with Gerber Cool
coolant, a high performance spray lubricant available from Gerber
Scientific Products, Inc. Gerber Cool is a non-toxic, biodegradable
coolant custom-formulated for Gerber routers. It meets all FDA
and USDA requirements for use in areas with incidental food
contact and will not harm the environment.
Note: The Mist Coolant System cannot be used at the same time as the
Chip Removal System or the Engraving Option.
