Some applications, such as those with very low flows, may require
additional measures to maintain steady rates.
The optional cylinder temperature control jacket assists in main-
taining cylinder temperatures (-30 to 100 °C) by circulating liquids,
such as water or water/ethylene glycol solution, through the 1/4"
upper and lower hose connectors.
If hot fluid is circulated in the temperature control jacket, the
jacket surfaces will become hot. Use thermal protection if the
thermal solution is greater than 25 °C (95 °F)

A temperature control jacket is very useful for SFC applications where
cylinder cooling facilitates filling with fluids such as liquid CO
jacket can also be used with a circulating temperature-controlled bath
to keep the fluid inside the pump at a constant temperature. This may
be necessary when operating at very low flow rates (below
500 µL/min), where temperature fluctuation can cause flow variations.
When pumping gases, especially those that change phase during com-
pression (like CO or alkane gases), a thermal jacket is recommended
2
to remove the heat buildup resulting from compression work. This
heat buildup can cause poor refills and difficulties in maintaining
working fluid parameters such as density. Typically the temperature
control jacket fluid is maintained at a temperature below room tem-
perature, but the exact temperature chosen would be application
dependent.
