Coolant Interface
Aspen recommends using Koolance 702 as the working fluid for this system. The use of water without
additives may result in corrosion and/or biological growth in an untreated system. The coolant and
customer coolant loop should be clean and free of debris. The RMC is equipped with an internal coolant
filter; however, this filter is intended to protect the pump from debris in the coolant loop. The presence
of foreign materials into the RMC, could damage components and reduce system performance. Aspen
recommends that the customer use an external filter prior to the return line to prevent any foreign
material from returning to the RMC.

Coolant Connections
The coolant connections for the RMC are female LC Series CPC (Colder Products) quick disconnect
fittings (see Figure 2), with shutoff valves. Male mating connectors (with shutoff valves) must be
attached to both fittings at startup.
Filling
The RMC contains a 1 L reservoir. The reservoir is filled by removing the red fill cap at the front of the
system (see Figure 2). The system must be about 50% full to operate. Overfilling the systems is not
recommended to prevent possible spillage.
Aspen recommends an external coolant filter on the return line to prevent any damage to
internal components or degradation of the RMC’s cooling capacity and efficiency.
