CCX 70
V1.1 | 29 April 2016
Caution!
Contaminants in the water supply can reduce the cooling efficiency, leading
to increased operating temperatures. This can cause damage to the source.
Refer to "Cleaning" on page 23 for details about regular checks and cleaning
procedures to avoid the accumulation of contaminants.
Note that particles and chemical compounds will be formed in solution by electrochemical pro-
cesses. These are deposited as sediments. For this reason, you need to clean the filters and
check the water quality periodically, replacing water as necessary.
3.2 Preventing Biological Activity
It is vital to hinder the growth of microorganisms in the cooling water. These can:
Ÿ Promote corrosion inside the source.
Ÿ Cause blockages and reduced water flow.
Ÿ Create insulating layers, reducing the effectiveness of the cooling water.
3.2.1 Algicide
SPECS recommends the use of an algicide to prevent the growth of algae, bacteria and fungus
in the cooling water. This is essential when using a closed circuit water chiller. Please see the
water chiller documentation for more details about using an algicide.
Warning—Harmful!
Avoid contact with anti-algeon. Irritations of skin and mucosa are possible.
3.2.2 Water Hoses
SPECS supplies dark, opaque hoses with the CCX 70. These prevent light from reaching the
water and thereby reduce biological activity.
Note
If the X-ray source is out of use for long periods of time, remove the hoses and blow the water
out of the source. This will avoid possible sedimentation effects.
3.3 Pressure and Flow Rate
The CCX 70 contains a pressure meter and a flow meter to monitor the static water pressure of
the inlet line as well as the rate of water flow through the system. The water inlet valve is con-
trolled by the UXC 1000. The reading of the pressure meter is read by the CCX 70 and can be
displayed by the UXC 1000.
