3. Product Description
3.1 Description
The cooling unit WL 5000 S is intended for the cooling of a water circuit. The coolant can be water or
a mixture of water and antifreeze (water-glycol). Water circulates between the cooling unit and the
heat source. The water is re-cooled by an air-cooled heat exchanger. A bypass valve limits the pump
pressure.
The capacity of the cooling unit depends on the temperature difference between the ambient
temperature and the water outlet temperature. The cooling capacity has an amount of 5000 W related
to a difference of 13,2 K between water outlet temperature and ambient temperature.
Cooling hoses are connected to the cooling unit via hose nipples.
Coolant inlet and outlet are marked with symbols: Inlet:
