OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
The fundamental rules below apply to the operation of the K°Bloc:
•
Ensure that all protective measures relevant for the flow medium in
question have been installed and are respected.
•
When operating the unit with hazardous flow media, it must be ensured
that these are reliably collected in case of a leak on the K°Bloc.
•
Ensure that the K°Bloc installed is suitable for the flow media and their
properties.
•
Bring the K°Bloc to the operating temperatures of the two circuits by
means of the flow media at low pressure.
•
Avoid quick temperature changes (maximum temperature change: 5
K/min.).
•
Respect the maximum temperature difference of the flow media of 200 K
max. between the hot and the cold side.
•
Ensure that under all setting-up and operating conditions, the tempera-
ture never falls below the freezing temperature of the flow media used.
