Description: Standard on air-only machines
Performance Level: Entry level
Cooling Medium: Ambient air
Warnings/Alarms: None
Controls: None
Facilities Impact: None
The cells in the cooling section of the machine allow ambient air to enter via inlets mounted on both top and
bottom cells. Air enters the inlets and mixes with the recirculated exhaust air, which in turn lowers the overall cell
temperature. The cooler recirculated air is then used to cool boards being processed.
Cooling performance is dependent on ambient air temperatures. It is an uncontrolled system with only a
thermocouple mounted in the top cells for temperature monitoring. The amount of cooling is limited and therefore
not recommended for customers who have specific cooling requirements.
