OPERATING PRESSURE
The liquid pressure inside the system during operating may
maximal be ca. 1 bar (14.5 PSI). The flow of the fluid is about ca. 2,5
L/min at the outlet coupling but is strongly depending on the flow
resistance created by the interior and exterior used components
like the tubing and radiator.
OPERATING LIQUIDS
Only use the following liquids. Top-Cool doesn’t support or give
warranty if any other liquid is used as stated below.
-
Clean water / demineralised water (demineralised water is
preferred because it does not contain lime)
-
Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG), up till 50% MEG / 50% water
(-37˚C)
The cold-side of the cooling system can freeze if the liquid used is
operating near its freezing temperature. The fluid will always freeze
inside the TCT-units first and is not notable.
It is not allowed to regulate the system in a mode that is operating
above/beneath or near the temperature limits.
There will be given no support and warranty will void when the
ECO-ClimaTEC is used near these temperature limits.
Observe if the flow is clear of air. Air bubbles in the flow can
influence the performance of the ECO-ClimaTEC.
The MEG coolant is mixed with water. The mixing ratio determines
the freezing temperature of the liquid. This mixing ratio can change
due to, for example, evaporation of the water (especially when a
open loop is used). Therefore it is recommended to check the
mixing ratio of the liquid regularly with a refractometer and to
maintain the desired freezing point by adding additional coolant.
