3.5 Cooling plate
Introduction
The cooling plate b is installed between the base plate
a of the unit and a rack c. When used with a cooling
aggregate and a valve, the cooling plate allows controlled
cooling of a rack within a range from room temperature
down to -20°C.
When a valve is used, a rack can also be through the cooling
plate, enabling operation with complex time / temperature
profiles.
Connections
The cooling plate has an inlet a and an outlet b for cooling
media. The hoses c for the cooling medium are connected
to the inlet and outlet on the cooling plate. The hoses must
be secured.
Hoses that are not secured can work themselves loose
from the cooling plate and lead to material damage and
personal injuries.
The vortex movement of the single platform brings the
cooling hoses into a rotational movement. The hoses must
not come into contact with sharp edges or corners.
Fastening to the base plate
To fasten the cooling plate in position, use a screwdriver
to remove the holding clamps a from the base plate.
Lay the cooling plate on the base plate, and screw it on
tightly with four screws.
The cooling plate and the base plate must both be clean and
must not be fouled with hard particles. Otherwise, no good
heat exchange between the base plate and the cooling plate
can be guaranteed any longer. For a better heat transfer it
is possible to use some propylen glycol between the base
plate and the cooling plate. Furthermore, the plates can be
scratched by hard particles and this has an adverse effect
upon heat transfer.
