Laser Installation Tips:
- Piping connecting chiller and process should be of non-ferrous construction
- Outdoor installations are for glycol-only designs, other mixes require a special design.
- Note the distance from chiller to process
- Overhead piping requires anti-back flow kit
Water Quality Requirements:
- Water should be clean and 100 micron or better
-
Bacteria inhibitors should be noted when quoting since many inhibitors create problems with seals.
-
De-ionized water - qualities over 200,000 M-ohms resistivity will require plastic or stainless steel.
