An alternative is to install a recirculating water chiller system. The
system should provide cover for the reservoir to prevent evaporation
and stop contamination by dust or other impurities. Algaecide should
be used to prevent algae growth that may restrict the flow of cooling
water through the system.
A recirculating water chiller system has the advantage of reducing
the volume of water that will be required over the life of the
instrument's operation. Because of the limited size of the water
chiller's reservoir, in the case of accidental damage the amount of
water damage that can occur will also be limited.
The G8481A Agilent Water Chiller can be used and will ensure the
continued delivery of temperature controlled coolant, at the correct
pressure, with a minimum of long-term maintenance or operational
expense.
The operation manual, mounting, and assembly hardware for the chiller system is
