Draining the Hoses
1. The coolant hoses should now be detached from the back
of the ICE450 and the Laser Head.
2. Connect the coolant change connectors to the stainless
steel connectors on the ends of the coolant hoses. Place
the end of the coolant hoses in your container.
3. Press in on the white plastic top of the connector to allow
air into the hoses. Do not cover the entire end of this
connector, or the coolant will not drain. Raise the end of
the hose while pressing in on the connector top to drain
the entire length of the hose.
The coolant is now drained and the ICE450 is ready to refill,
store or transport.
Inspect the Drained Coolant
Inspect the discarded coolant for clarity. The coolant should
be very clear and free from contaminants. There should be no
organic contaminants (such as algae) or large particles in the
waste coolant.
• Black particulate is typically a sign of pump wear.
• Green coloration may be a sign of organic contamination.
CAUTION: All contaminants need to be removed from
the coolant loop prior to operating the laser. Please
contact Quantel USA if you suspect contaminated
coolant.
Refilling the Reservoir
1. To refill the cooling system, remove the coolant change
connectors.
2. Reconnect the coolant lines between the Laser Head and
ICE450.
3. Refill the reservoir using the standard process. See
