Manual of instructions TT-181 15/33
The temperature control unit is designed for an ambient temperature of +10 up to 40°C. Sufficient
ventilation must be ensured during set-up. The distance between the temperature control unit and
other facilities must be at least 10cm. The ventilation opening must be free.
• Check the unit of completeness and possible damages.
• The unit has to be installed in a suitable location on even ground. It must be stand on feets
(castors).
• The unit is not protected against splash water and is not suitable for use in hazardous location.
The unit must not be used in the open air.
• The unit must not be transported lying. Lying transport destroy the unit.
The temperature control unit can release excess pressure. Danger of injury
in the event of escaping steam!
Never start up the unit without the protection cover!
Never use the unit in hazardous location!
Repair leaks immediately!
Observe local laws during set-up!
The temperature control unit may be pressurised!
Only when the pressure gauge shows 0 bar, disconnect hoses!
5.2. Connections
Before installing the connecting lines between temperature control unit and consumer must be
subjected following inspections:
• Verify that channels on the consumers are unobstructed
• Remove fouling, e.g. remove shaving in the lines
• Rust and lime deposits must be removed because the greatly interfere with the heat exchange
between consumer and heat transfer medium and increase the pressure drop in the consumer.
For the connecting lines (to and from mould, cooling water inlet and outlet, etc.) the following internal
diameters of hoses are recommended:
Quick release couplings will give reduced flow. If the recommended tube size cannot be connected to
the mould, the connection at the mould should be reduced and not the connection on the temperature
control unit. In that way pressure drops can be avoided.
