Draining
To drain the system, a female LC series CPC (Colder Products) quick disconnect fitting is located at the
bottom of the reservoir (see Figure 2). Attaching a mating male quick connect and allowing to drain
under gravity will empty the reservoir. Additional coolant will remain within the system, which cannot
be drained by gravity.
Airflow
The RMC requires airflow to sufficiently cool the system. Aspen requires at least 4 inches of clearance in
front of the air inlet (front panel) and the air exhaust (rear).
Other Considerations
The RMC has two exposed un-insulated sections (the quick connect fittings and the reservoir). If
operating in an environment where the coolant temperature is below the dew point of the ambient air,
these surfaces will collect condensation. To prevent condensation from forming, these surfaces must be
insulated by the user.
While the Koolance 702 fluid depresses the freezing temperature of the coolant (-15°C, 5°F), it may be
possible to freeze during operation. The RMC can freeze a fluid at a setpoint greater than the freezing
point of the coolant. Care must be taken to not operate at a coolant temperature within
5°
C of the
freezing point of that coolant.
Mounting
The RMC is a rack mount chiller (2U). The outer dimensions and mounting dimensions are defined in
Figure 3. Some customers may wish to have the RMC as a desktop unit, and for that, Aspen can
recommend adhesive feet for the unit.
