3.1 Cooling
Defective work on the cooling circuit
Defective work on the cooling circuit can cause injury and/or damage to property.
• Only qualified personnel may assemble, install, and commission the cooling circuit.
• Perform installation or service work on the cooling circuit only when the system is de-
energized.
Note
Cooling circuit
Only closed and semi
-open cooling circuits are permissible for motors.
3.1.1 Cooling circuit
The electrochemical processes that take place in a cooling system must be minimized by
choosing the right materials. For this reason, mixed installations, i.e. a combination of
different materials, such as copper, brass, iron, or halogenated plastic (PVC hoses and
seals), should not be used or limited to the absolutely essential minimum.
A differentiation is made between 3 different cooling circuits:
● Closed cooling circuit
● Semi-open cooling circuit
● Open cooling circuit
Table 3- 1 Description of the various cooling circuits
Closed cooling circuit The pressure equalizing tank is closed (oxygen cannot enter the system)
and has a pressure relief valve. The cooling water is only routed in the
motors and converters as well as the components that have to be cooled.
Semi-open cooling circuit Oxygen can only enter the cooling system through the pressure equaliza-
tion tank, otherwise the same as "closed cooling circuit".
Open cooling circuit
The cooling water is cooled in a tower. In this case, there is intensive
