Making the Camera-Circulator Connections

For liquid-cooled cameras, the CoolCUBE
of heat removal.
1. Make sure the camera and the circulator power switches are
turned off.
2. Make sure the circulator is 6 inches (150 mm) or more
below the camera. The vertical distance should not exceed
10 feet (3 m). Typically, the camera is at table height and
the circulator is on the floor.
3. Make the coolant connections between the circulator and the
camera. It does not matter which hose from the circulator is plugged into a coolant
port on the camera.
4. It is recommended that hoses be secured to the camera hose barbs with the clamp
supplied.
Notes:
1. Make sure that there are no kinks in the hoses that impede the coolant flow. Lack
2. Damage caused by water leaking into the PI-MAX3 voids the warranty.
5. Unscrew the reservoir cap (on top of the CoolCUBE II) and make sure that the
coolant reservoir contains coolant. If additional coolant is required, fill with a 50:50
mixture of water and ethylene glycol.
6. Screw the reservoir cap back in.
7. Plug the circulator into a 100-240 VAC, 47-63 Hz power source.
8. Turn the circulator on. Make sure there are no leaks or air bubbles in the hoses.

If there are no problems, continue to Step 9.
If there are leaks or air bubbles, turn the circulator off and correct the problem(s)
by securing the hoses or adding more coolant to the reservoir. Turn the circulator
back on. Recheck and if there are no problems, continue to Step 9.
