The higher the concentration of heat transfer fluid, the higher the viscosity of the coolant.
This results in a higher pressure loss in the system. See
Pressure limits (page 178) .
The nominal current ratings of drive system modules apply to an Antifrogen® L / water
solution of 25/75% (volume). With the Antifrogen® L concentration between 25% and 50%,
the drive output current must be derated by 1/3 percentage point per 1 p.p. increase in
Antifrogen® L concentration. The drawing below shows the derating factor
(k) in relation to
Antifrogen® L concentration.

Incoming coolant temperature:
• 0…40 °C (32…104 °F): no drive output current derating required
• 40…45 °C (104…113 °F): drive output current must be derated by 2 percentage points
per 1 °C (1.8 °F) temperature increase, as shown by curve (a).
• 45…50 °C (113…122 °F):
• If components with a maximum operating temperature of 55 °C (131 °F) are installed
in the same space as the drive modules, drive output current must be derated by
6 percentage points per 1 °C (1.8 °F) temperature increase, as shown by curve (c).
• If there are no components with a maximum operating temperature of 55 °C (131 °F)
installed in the same space as the drive modules, drive output current must be
derated by 2 percentage points per 1 °C (1.8 °F) temperature increase, as shown
by curve (b).
The drawing below shows the derating factor (k) in relation to coolant temperature.

The drawing below shows the derating factor ( k ) in relation to coolant temperature.
Condensation is not allowed. The minimum coolant temperature to avoid condensation (at
an atmospheric pressure of 1 bar) is shown below as a function of relative humidity (f) and
ambient temperature (
T
air
).
Maximum temperature rise: Depends on heat losses and mass flow. Typically 5 °C
(9 °F) with nominal losses and flow.

Pressure limits
Base pressure: 100 … 150 kPa (recommended); 200 kPa (maximum). “Base pressure”
denotes the pressure of the system compared with the atmospheric pressure when the
cooling circuit is filled with coolant.
Air counterpressure in the expansion tank: 40 kPa
Design pressure: 600 kPa
Nominal pressure difference (between main in/out lines) : 120 kPa
Maximum pressure difference (between main in/out lines) : 200 kPa

= Not allowed as standard but the coolant temperature must be 4 °C (39 °F) or above.
Consult an ABB representative if operation below coolant temperature 4 °C is required.
