  • Page 10: General Information

    Section II General Information Description The System I Liquid to Liquid Heat Exchanger uses building recircu l ating or tap water as the secondary cooling medium to remove heat from the cooling fluid in the closed recirculation loop. The unit consists of a heat exchanger, recirculation pump, PVC reservoir, and an analog temperature controller.
  • Page 11: Site

    The chart is based on a 10°C difference between the temperature of the cooling water supply (facility water) and the cooling fluid as it leaves the System I. As the heat load increases, the required flow rate of the cooling water supply increases.
  • Page 12: Plumbing Requirements

    Plumbing Requirements Before installing the unit to an instrument that previously used tap water as a cooling fluid, flush the instrument several times to remove any rust or scalethat has built up. The manufacturer of the instrument should be able to recommend a cleaning fluid for their equipment.

    (square nut). Remove the plug and fill the reservoir to the bottom of the fill hole flange. Keep extra cooling fluid on hand until the entire system (the System I, the instrument being cooled and the tubing that connects them) is filled.
  • Page 15: Start Up

    The amount of “bucking” depends on the pressure differential between the COOLING WATER INLET and the COOLING WATER OUTLET/DRAIN. By lowering the pressure differential to 12 psi, the amount of “bucking” can be minimized. The “bucking” is not harmful to the System I. - 10 -...
  • Page 16: Special Features

    Section V Special Features Low Fluid Level Monitor The low fluid level monitor is connected to a float switch in the reservoir. A low fluid level fault occurs when the cooling fluid in the reservoir drops below the operating level. In the event of a low fluid level fault, the unit will shut down, the red HIGH TEMP/LOW LEVEL lamp will light, and the EXTERNAL INTERLOCK contacts will open.
  • Page 17: Maintenance And Service

    Section VI Maintenance and Service For personal safety and equipment reliability, the following procedures should only be performed by a qualified technician. Contact our Service Department for assistance (see Preface, After-sale Support). Service Contracts Thermo Fisher offers on-site Service Contracts that are designed to provide extended life and minimal down-time for your unit.
  • Page 18: Pressure Relief Valve Adjustment

    Pressure Relief Valve Adjustment The adjustable pressure relief valve establishes the maximum operating pressure of the unit. If the pressure of the fluid leaving the pump exceeds the valve setting, the relief valve will bypass the fluid within the unit to relieve the pressure.
  • Page 19: Troubleshooting

    Section VII Troubleshooting Checklist Unit will not run (POWER ON/OFF switch is in ON position, HIGH TEMP/LOW LEVEL light is not lit). Make sure the voltage of the power source meets the specified voltage, ±10%. Refer to the serial number on the rear of the unit for the specific electrical requirements of your unit.
