Install an STA 6000 . 45
Setting the Coolant Temperature
When using a circulator, the temperature must be controlled to within 0.2 °C (set point ±
0.1 °C).
1. Press and release the Select/Set control on the front panel.
The set point temperature value is highlighted.
2. Turn the control to set the temperature to the nearest whole degree Celsius.
3. Press the control again.
The degree fraction figures are highlighted.
4. Turn the control to select the desired fraction of a degree.
5. Press the control to accept the value.
Connecting to the Intracooler C6 Chiller
CAUTION
ATTENTION
Antifreeze must be used. Pure water would freeze if used with the
chiller. We recommend a standard automobile antifreeze; the volume
required is 0.5 l. The antifreeze should be effective down to –20 °C. Any
lower than that would impair the conveyance power of the pump.
L'antigel doit être utilisé. L'eau pure glacerait si elle était utilisée avec le
refroidisseur. Nous recommandons un antigel d'automobile standard; le
volume requis est de 0,5 l. L'antigel devrait être efficace jusqu'à -20 ° C.
Tout inférieur à celui qui nuirait à la puissance de transport de la pompe.
CAUTION
ATTENTION
The air necessary for cooling the compressor is drawn in at the rear of
the cooler and is blown out of the side. Therefore, do not block the rear
of the device. Maintain a minimum space of 15–20 cm. The side vents
must also not be blocked.
L'air nécessaire pour refroidir le compresseur est aspiré à l'arrière du
refroidisseur et est soufflé hors du côté. Par conséquent, ne bloquez pas
l'arrière de l'appareil. Maintenir un espace minimum de 15 à 20 cm. Les
évents latéraux ne doivent pas non plus être bloqués.
NOTE: The internal circulating pump must first be vented in order to allow the coolant to
circulate.
When using the C6 Chiller, connect the cooling supply to the STA 6000 as follows:
1. Make sure that the chiller is switched off but that its power cord is plugged in to a
power supply.
2. Remove the container stoppers from the top and fill the container with antifreeze. The
cooling coils should be well covered to enable full transfer of cooling power.
3. Insert one of the hose couplings shipped with the chiller into the end of a cooling tube.
Connect the tube to the Wasservorlauf connector (liquid out) and hold the other end in
a bucket or like container.
