Chambers. The Model 9000-ECS is used in conjunction with an internal conditioning (heat exchanger) located inside the DDC. The Model 9000-ECS is a self-contained unit, using a sealed R-404A refrigeration unit, fluid reservoir, circulation pump and heater. The system can supply cooled or heated fluid, operator selected, to provide heat or cooling for the DDC as required.

MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL OPTIONS Model 9000-RCS Remote control switch, allows remote control of the Model 9000-ECS. The 25 foot remote control cable connects to the remote control connector on the Model 9000-ECS, and permits the unit to be turned "ON - HEAT", "OFF", or "ON - COOL".
MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS POWER SWITCH Three-position switch, "ON" turns the power on, "OFF" turns the power off. "Remote Control" permits the unit to be controlled remotely. Selecting the "ON" or "OFF" positions overrides the remote control. Turning the unit "ON” turns on the circulating pump.
THEORY OF OPERATION GENERAL The Model 9000-ECS is one part of a system designed to provide temperature and humidity control of a decompression chamber. The complete system consist of an internal conditioning system (the Amron Model 9100-ICS2), the external conditioning system (the Amron Model 9000-ECS), and the associated plumbing.
MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL The resulting temperature drop causes the Freon gas to change from a gaseous state to a liquid form. The Freon liquid/gas from the output of the condenser is collected in the accumulator. The accumulator buffers the pressure pulses from the compressor and provides a collection point (reservoir) to draw off liquid Freon.
MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL The pump draws fluid from the bottom side of the reservoir. The pump output is routed to the supply thermometer, which indicates the output temperature of the fluid. From the thermometer the fluid is plumbed to the fluid connection panel. This is the connection for the chamber supply line.
CHAMBER should be 50 PSI or greater, with a minimum temperature rating of 0 to 125 Amron's recommendation is 3/4" soft copper tubing, for runs of up 50 ft. (25 ft. supply and 25 ft. return). For longer runs increase the tubing size to 1".
MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL OPERATION Turn the unit ON selecting either local or remote control. When operating in the local mode select either heat or cool as required. If you wish to use the remote control, select the remote control position on the power switch.
MODEL 9000-ECS USER MANUAL MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING GENERAL Trained personnel should perform maintenance. A refrigeration technician should be used for any servicing of the refrigeration system. An electrician can service the electrical system. The balance of the system can most likely be serviced by either.
