  • Page 21: De-Icing

    DE-ICING During the treatment, the CRYOFLOW ICE-CT sucks in the ambient air via a filter mat (2) and cools it down in the heat exchanger to -32 °C. It is well known that the air will lose its moisture. This moisture condensates in the heat exchanger and freezes.
  • Page 22: Draining The Water Tank

    Turn the device off using the power switch (3). Open the valve (4) on the rear panel of the CRYOFLOW ICE-CT and remove the water tank. After draining, clean the tank and replace it so that the drain pipe is located above the tank opening. The left side of the water tank must be positioned in parallel to the plastic housing of the filling level sensor.

  • Page 32: Relocating The Device

    11.6 Relocating the device The CRYOFLOW ICE-CT is fitted with 4 double rollers, to enable the easy positioning of the device at the place of treatment. Since the device is not earmarked for mobile use, no pushing into another treatment room can be done and it should not run over obstacles in the room (such as cable or similar).
  • Page 33: Maintenance And Cleaning

    Caution: Careful to the clamping points on the filter slot and to the bottle holder! The state of the cooler affects the functionality of the CRYOFLOW ICE-CT. Inside the device, a ventilator sucks in ambient air and blows it through the cooler and the round ventilation slots of the front wall to the outside. The environment will then be instrumental in how long it will take for the cooler to get dirty.
  • Page 34 Caution! If during the performance, a smell of ether occurs due to the potentially leaking coolant, make sure fresh air is brought in, switch the device off and lead people out of the treatment room! ELCR007-AUM001-V10 Operating instructions CRYOFLOW ICE-CT (2014-11-03)
