Cooling water connections at W80 and W80t
Even high quality heat exchangers, like those installed in our equipment,
can be damaged by unsuitable cooling water.
Cooling water quality can vary based on local conditions.
The heat exchanger may become leaky due to corrosion, or it may
become clogged due to particulates building up inside.
Cooling water pressure (IN / OUT)
max.
6 bar
Differential pressure (IN - OUT)
0.5 bar
Cooling water temperature
< 30 °C [< 86
°
F]
Cooling water quantity see technical data.
Danger of corrosion of heat exchanger due to unsuitable quality of
cooling water.
•
Due to its high lime content, hard water is not suitable for cooling. It
will cause scale formation in the heat exchanger.
•
Water containing high amounts of iron will cause rusting even in
heat exchangers made of stainless steel.
•
Chlorinated water will cause pitting corrosion in heat exchangers
made of stainless steel.
•
Due to their corrosive characteristics, distilled water and deionized
water are unsuitable and will cause corrosion of the bath.
•
Due to its corrosive characteristics, sea water is not suitable.
•
Due to their microbial (bacterial) components which settle in the
heat exchanger, untreated and unpurified water from rivers and/or
cooling towers is unsuitable.
•
Avoid particulate matter in cooling water.
•
Avoid putrid water.
