4. Instrukcje konfiguracji

Follow these steps for initial setup of your water chiller.

1. Rozpakowywanie: Carefully remove the chiller from its packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit.
2. Umieszczenie: Place the chiller on a flat, stable surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure there is at least 20 cm (8 inches) of space around the unit for proper airflow.
3. Napełnij zbiornik na wodę: Unscrew the water injection port cap (1 in Figure 4). Fill the tank with approximately 6 liters (1.6 gallons) of distilled water or OMTech laser coolant. Monitor the water level gauge (6 in Figure 4) to ensure the level is within the green zone. Do not overfill.

4. Podłącz węże wodne: Connect the water inlet of your laser machine to the Cooling Water Outlet (4 in Figure 4) of the chiller. Connect the water outlet of your laser machine to the Cooling Water Inlet (5 in Figure 4) of the chiller. Secure all connections to prevent leaks.
5. Podłączenie zasilania: Connect the power cord to the Power Socket (2 in Figure 4) on the chiller and then plug it into a grounded electrical outlet.

5. Instrukcja obsługi

Operating the CW-5200 chiller is straightforward once properly set up.

1. Włączanie: Flip the Power Switch (1 in Figure 3) to the 'ON' position. The chiller will start, and the temperature display will illuminate.
2. Initial Circulation: Allow the chiller to run for a few minutes to circulate the water and remove any air bubbles from the system. Check the water level gauge again and add more water if necessary.
3. Monitorowanie temperatury: The digital display (2 in Figure 3) shows the current water temperature. The chiller is designed to maintain the water temperature within 0.3°C of the set point.

4. Działanie lasera: Once the chiller has reached a stable operating temperature, you can begin operating your CO2 laser machine. The chiller will automatically regulate the water temperature to prevent overheating of the laser tube.
5. Wyłączone: After use, turn off your laser machine first, then switch off the chiller using the Power Switch.

6. Konserwacja

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your chiller.

• Wymiana wody: Replace the cooling water every 1 to 3 months, depending on usage and environmental conditions. Always use distilled water or OMTech laser coolant.
• Czyszczenie żeberek chłodnicy: Periodically clean the radiator fins (7 in Figure 4) to ensure efficient heat dissipation. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris.
• Sprawdź poziom wody: Regularly check the water level gauge and refill if the level drops below the green zone.
• Drenaż: Use the water drain port (8 in Figure 4) to empty the tank when replacing water or storing the unit.
