Use:
Edit the plate ALP height for the location at which the ThermALPÔ
resides in the BFX software.
You can also do this by increasing the Plate definition height Z +
~11.00 mm. Seating depth of various plate types varies.
Dimensions: (Relative to a Static
ALP)
Additional ALP Height: ………..11.8 mm
Overall Plate Height:…………….165mm
Specifications: Thermal
Maximum temperature = 65° C ( Osha Limit,
tested to 90° C)
Minimum temperature = -0° C ( limited by
chiller low limit)
- Minimum operating temperature is dependent on the recirculating
refrigerator lower capability.
Installation: Do not loosen
or remove any of the sealed fittings or plugs.
Disassemble the ALP completely. If needed mount the friendly points
from the old ALP to the ThermALPÔ or mount the
thermal collars purchased with your device Thread 4 nylon 6-32 screws down
through the ThermALPÔ at the corners. Install
the nylon washers over the bottom and assemble the rods into the threads
with the nylon washers. Mount the ALP base back onto the new ALP assembly.
The recirculating chiller connections are as follows: Cut the ¼ "
tubing between the device and the Recirculator. Flow direction is not
critical. Locate the ALP in a location that it will not encounter any
obstructions. Condensate will build up on the tubing, route accordingly.
Typically up to 3 units can be ganged together on one recirculator in a
parallel arrangement.
Operation: recirculating refrigerator bath.
Use a 60% glycol mixture in the recirculator reservoir. Allow the
recirculator to reach the setpoint temperature, ~30 minutes for the Low
side. It is best to measure the temperature right at the plate with a
non-contact thermometer if the control is critical. You can also use a
condensate wrap or insulation around the perimeter if required. It Is best
if the unit does not remain on at less than freezing temperatures for
periods greater than 24 hours, as frost will build up and may affect plate
positioning. If you encounter any difficulty with this integration
