VERFAHRENSOPTIMIERUNG
Vortex cabinet coolers should preferably be mounted on the flat top of a cabinet
with a minimum protection rating of IP54. If this is not possible, for example
because of the location of the control box (under a roof or ceiling) or for other
reasons, a side mount kit can be used.
Depending on the model - IP55 or IP66 series - mount the Vortex cooler through
a hole with a diameter of 30 or 27 mm, respectively. Both versions may be
installed horizontally or vertically. You fasten the vortex cooler with the help of
the supplied lock nut.
Only suitably qualified personnel may install or service this equipment/system
and must strictly follow the installation instructions.
Cold air distribution kit
The Cold air distribution kit includes a flexible transparent hose, self-adhesive
mounting clips and silencer. The flexible hose is intended to circulate the cooling
air in a better way or to reach "hot spots". If desired, holes can be made in the
flexible hose. If the end of the flexible hose is sealed, at least 4 holes of ø 4mm
(200W versions) or 6 holes (290-820W versions) must be made to avoid
excessive back pressure.
Compressed air: piping
The diameter of the compressed air line must be selected in such a way that
pressure losses are reduced to a minimum. Use at least 3/8" piping or ½" hoses!
Cross-section constrictions are to be avoided, as they reduce the
capacity of the vortex cooler. Do not use quick couplings!
The vortex cooler lowers the temperature of the compressed air supply by 30ºC
@ 7.0 bar(g) inlet pressure. An increased temperature of the supplied
compressed air leads to a proportionally higher outlet temperature and reduces
the cooling capacity. In this case, it is recommended to line the pipes with
insulating material
Compressed Air: Quality
The compressed air needs to be filtered. The Vortex coolers will work for years
without any maintenance if oil particles, rust and other contaminants are
removed from the compressed air flow.
Use a combined water separator-filter (5 micron)/pressure reducer fitted with a
pressure gauge. This must be mounted as close to the vortex cooler as possible.
The Vortex coolers are designed to work with normal compressed air with a
working pressure of 5.5-7.0 bar(g).
If there is oil present in the compressed air, an additional oil separator must be
installed.
