TC-Double (+) 2 Safety instructions 2.1 Important advice Operation of the device is only valid if: – the product is used under the conditions described in the installation- and operation instruction, the intended application according to the type plate and the intended use. In case of unauthorized modifications done by the user Bühler Technolo- gies GmbH can not be held responsible for any damage, –...
TC-Double (+) 2.2 General hazard warnings The equipment must be installed by a professional familiar with the safety requirements and risks. Be sure to observe the safety regulations and generally applicable rules of technology relevant for the installation site. Prevent malfunctions and avoid personal injuries and property damage.
TC-Double (+) 3 Transport and storage Only transport the product inside the original packaging or a suitable alternative. The equipment must be protected from moisture and heat when not in use. It must be stored in a covered, dry and dust-free room at a temperature of -20 °C to 60 °C (-4 °F to 140 °F).
TC-Double (+) 4 Installation and connection 4.1 Installation site requirements The unit is only intended for wall-mounted use in enclosed areas. Adequate protection from the weather must be provided when used outdoors. Install the unit leaving enough room below the cooler to discharge the condensate. Leave room above for the gas supply.
TC-Double (+) 4.2.4 Sample gas pump connection gas lines (optional) On coolers ordered with attached sample gas pump these are already installed and wired. Add-on parts ordered at the same time are already installed and connected to the sample gas pump.
TC-Double (+) The gas inputs are marked in red. On glass heat exchangers the correct position of the seal is important when connecting the gas lines (see image). The seal con- sists of a silicone ring with a PTFE sleeve. The PTFE side must face the glass thread.
TC-Double (+) Electric strength test This device is equipped with extensive EMC protection. The necessary tests were carried out at the factory (test voltage 2.1 kV or 2.55 kV DC depending on approval). If you wish to check the electric strength again yourself, you can do so on the entire unit. Only test the device with the specified values using direct current voltage.

TC-Double (+) The front film on the display module has three LEDs: Colour Marking Function High/low temperature Device error Yellow Reserved Green Normal operation The LEDs OP and S2 indicate the device status similar to S2. If the option “temperature signal” is built in, the unit has a signal output via the analogue output to indicate the actual cooler temperature.
The TC-Double has an additional cooling stage for pre-cooling the gas (heat exchanger 2), the block temperature of which varies by ambient temperature and load. The target value of the pre-cooling stage corresponds to that of block 1.

TC-Double (+) 6 Maintenance The basic version of the cooler requires no special maintenance. However, it may have different options depending on the cooler model. In this case the following maintenance must be per- formed regularly: – Optional peristaltic pump: Checking hoses (see chapter Replacing the hoses of the peristaltic pump (option)) –...
TC-Double (+) 7 Service and repair This chapter contains information on troubleshooting and correction should an error occur during operation. Repairs to the unit must be performed by Bühler authorised personnel. Please contact our Service Department with any questions: Tel.: +49-(0)2102-498955 or your agent If the equipment is not functioning properly after correcting any malfunctions and switching on the power, it must be inspected by the manufacturer.
TC-Double (+) 7.1.1 Error messages on the display If an error occurs, the display will read "Err". Press the " " button to show the error number(s). Error messages will appear until the unit has been restarted or the error is cleared using the "Func" button. It can only be cleared if the cause for the error has been corrected.

TC-Double (+) 7.3 Cleaning and removal of the heat exchanger Heat exchangers only need to be replaced or maintained if clogged or damaged. If they are clogged, we recommend checking if using a filter will avoid future occurrences. – Close gas supply.
TC-Double (+) 7.6 Drying of the moisture detector (option) The moisture detector must be dried if moisture enters. – Close the gas supply. – Switch off and unplug the device. – Loosen the swivel nut for the moisture detector connection line and disconnect the line.
TC-Double (+) To assemble the sample gas pump, perform the steps in reverse order. When tightening the inlet and outlet valves be sure to ob- serve the required tightening torque of max. 1 Nm. CAUTION! Tightening the valves more will permanently deform the pump body, requiring replacement.

The TC-Double 6111 (X2) is designed for ambient temperatures of up to 40 °C. The cooling capacity is adequate up to this temper- ature. The TC-Double 6112 (X2) on the other hand can be used in higher temperatures up to nominal 60 °C. Please note the avail- able cooling capacity.
TC-Double (+) 9.5 Heat exchanger 9.5.1 Heat exchanger description The energy content of the sample gas and the required cooling capacity of the gas cooler is determined by three parameters: gas temperature ϑ , dew point τ (moisture content) and volume flow v. The outlet dew point rises with increasing energy content of the gas.
