If any parameter does not meet the requirements, the cooling system should be cleaned immediately.
Wuhan Raycus Fiber Laser Technologies Co., Ltd Using Guide of RFL-C020-CE/C025-CE 2) When the ambient temperature around the equipment falls below -10° C, a dual-function chiller (with both cooling and heating functions) must be used, and it is essential to ensure the cooling system operates continuously without interruption.
Wuhan Raycus Fiber Laser Technologies Co., Ltd Using Guide of RFL-C020-CE/C025-CE e) Use purified water to clean the circulation system 2-3 times and check the water quality. If the water meets the requirements, the cleaning is complete. If the water quality does not meet the requirements, drain the cooling water from the system and repeat step (e) until the water quality meets the required standards.
