Preparations for use
4.4 Configuration of the cooling circuit and coolant supply
Use either stainless steel or steel (S235JR) for the cooling circuit pipes and fittings.
4.4.2
Pressures and differential pressures in the cooling circuit
The maximum permissible overpressure in the heat sink and thus in the cooling circuit must
not exceed 6 bar.
● If you are using a pump, which reaches more than this maximum pressure, then on the
● The lowest possible differential pressure between the coolant in the supply and return lines
● The pressure drop is dependent on the machine type. The machine type is stamped on the
● If there is a risk of frost, use cooling water with antifreeze suitable for this temperature.

should be selected to allow use of pumps with a flat characteristic. The maximum differential
pressure for a heat sink varies from shaft height to shaft height. Higher pressure differences
significantly increase the risk of cavitation and abrasion.
