This cooling unit is designed to provide cooling for high power industrial x-ray tubes up to 225kV. The coolant can be either water or a mixture of water and antifreeze (glycol). The water is cooled by an air-cooled heat exchanger, water pressure is limited by an adjustable bypass valve.
The maximum cooling capacity of this unit depends upon the temperature difference between ambient temperature and the water outlet temperature. The cooling capacity is 3kW, with just a 11 °C temperature difference.
The water flow is monitored by an adjustable flow switch, and the water temperature by a thermal switch.
