3 Function description
3.1 Function description of the temperature control unit
3.1.1 General functions
This temperature control unit is designed for externally closed applications . → Page 28, section
»Connecting an externally closed application« .
Circulating coolers are temperature control units, which are mainly used to dissipate process heat as
well as a cost effective alternative to cooling water (drinking water).
A rotary evaporator and a vacuum pump can be placed on top of the temperature control unit to
save space.
Due to powerful refrigeration engineering , short cooling rates can be achieved.
3.1.2 Other functions
A pump ensures good circulation of the thermal fluid. The LED display shows the current tempera-
ture. A new setpoint can be easily entered with a simple keyboard.
3.2 Information on the thermal fluids
Non-compliance with the safety data sheet for the thermal fluid to be used
INJURIES

Risk of injury to the eyes, skin, respiratory tract.

The safety data sheet for the thermal fluid to be used must be read prior to using it and its
content must be respected.

Observe the local regulations/work instructions.

Wear your personal protective equipment (e.g. temperature-resistant safety gloves, safety
goggles, safety footwear).

Danger of slipping because floor and work area are contaminated. Clean the workplace; ob-
serve the proper disposal of thermal fluid and aids. → Page 15, section »Proper disposal of re-
sources and consumables« .
Non-compliance with the compatibility between the thermal fluid and your temperature control
unit
MATERIAL DAMAGE

Observe the classification of your temperature control unit according to DIN 12876.

Ensure the following materials are resistant with respect to the thermal fluid: Stainless steel
1.4301/ 1.4401 (V2A), copper, nickel, FKM, red bronze/brass and silver solder.

The maximum viscosity of the thermal fluid must not exceed 50 mm²/s at the lowest working
temperature!

The maximum density of the thermal fluid may not exceed 1 kg/dm³!
Mixing different thermofluids in a thermal fluid circuit
PROPERTY DAMAGE

Do not mix different types of thermofluid (such as mineral oil, silicone oil, synthetic oil, water,
etc.) in a thermofluid circuit.

The thermal fluid circuit must be rinsed when changing from one type of thermal fluid to an-
other. No residues of the previous type of thermal fluid may remain in the thermal fluid circuit.
