Specifications
Cooling Requirements
Cooling Water Inlet Temperature: 4° C to 27° C (40° F to 80° F)
Cooling Water Outlet Temperature: 40° C (104° F) maximum
Cooling Water Pressure: 210 kPa (30 psig) minimum
690 kPa (100 psig) maximum
Cooling Water Flow: 2.7 liters/min (0.7 gpm) minimum
Pressure Drop at Minimum Flow: 100 kPa (15 psid)
Water Chiller Cooling Capacity: 3.2 kW (11,000 BTU/hr)
Alternate Coolant: 50% pure ethylene glycol + 50% water
Ethylene glycol/water (50/50) flow rate: 3.5 liters/min (0.9 gpm) minimum
PREVENT EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. Use pure ethylene glycol/water (50/50)
mixture recommended by chiller manufacturer. Avoid using commercial
automotive antifreeze solutions. They may contain additives and grit material
that can damage the cooling system.
Refrigerant Quality
Refrigerant is 99.995% pure helium gas with a dew point less than -50° C (-58° F) at 2070 kPa
(300 psig).
PRESERVE YOUR WARRANTY and AVOID CONTAMINATION.
Specifications require the use of 99.995% pure helium gas with a dew point less
than -50º C (-58º F) at 2070 kPa (300 psig). Using a lesser quality of helium can
damage the system and void the warranty.
