-HT: High Temperature Operation Option
The ThermoCube II normally has set point limits of 5°C and 50°C
along with a thermistor on its liquid cold plate that shuts off heating
at a temperature of 55°C to protect against hot coolant damaging the
operator’s equipment. The –HT option changes this shut down
temperature to 70°C and adds insulation to allow operation up coolant
temperatures of 65 °C. Note: The Maximum specified temperature
for standard Centrifugal pumps (-1C and -1CL) is 60 °C.
-LT: Low Temperature Operation Option
The ThermoCube II normally has set point limits of 5°C and 50°C
along with a thermistor on its liquid cold plate that shuts off cooling
at a temperature of 2°C to prevent freeze damage when using water
as a coolant. The –LT option allows set points down to -5°C (-10C
for TCII 650), adds insulation to allow operation below the freezing
point of water (0°C), and changes the shut-down temperature to -
10°C. When selecting this option, the operator must ensure coolants
are selected that will not freeze within 5°C of set point. Repairs to
thermoelectric heat exchangers damaged by freezing water in
ThermoCube II units with this option selected will not be covered by
warranty.
-AA: Audio Alarm (Buzzer) Option
Audio alarm option. The ThermoCube II can come with an 87dB
buzzer that sounds when an alarm occurs.
Note: This option is not available with -TT or -DC options.
-RF: Run/Fill Switch Option for 3G (3 lpm Gear Pump)
ThermoCube II chillers with -3G pumps with the RF option come
with a Run/Fill switch located above the signal’s connector. This
switch allows the user to run the pump at low speed (Fill) during
initial filling and then, once all air-bubbles are out of the plumbing
lines, increase the pump speed (Run) for normal operation. Failure
to run the pump in the fill mode after initial hook-up or with drained
plumbing lines can result in water being blown out of the tank from
compressed air bubbles in the lines.
Note: The coolant flow rate in the fill mode is approximately 1.3
liters/minute.
-S: Stainless Steel Cold Plate Option
It is very important to match the wetted metals of the system the
ThermoCube II is controlling, to minimize any risk of corrosion. We
recommend using a stainless steel cold plate if you are uncertain
about the wetted metals. Note that cooling capacity will be degraded
by as much as 15-20% with this option, depending on configuration.
