Coolant Circulator
ProEM+ cameras can be optionally cooled by circulating coolant to provide a low

disconnect fittings for connection to an external circulator. Two 10 mm (3/8”) ID, 3
meter (10 ft) coolant hoses with ProEM+-compatible fittings are provided with each
ProEM+ system.
The coolant circulator can be any commercially available circulator (provided that it is
capable of continuously pumping a 50:50 mixture of room temperature (23ºC) water and
ethylene glycol at 1 liter per minute) or the Princeton Instruments CoolCUBE
II
. Please
contact the factory for recommendations.
