Performance Graphs
Cooling Capacity
Diagram Description: Two graphs illustrate cooling capacity (kW) versus circulating liquid temperature (℃) for the HRLE090-A-20/40 models. The left graph shows performance at 50Hz, and the right graph at 60Hz. Both graphs display performance curves for ambient temperatures of 32℃, 40℃, and 45℃. Note: Cooling capacity is the sum for CH1 and CH2. The 32℃ ambient condition assumes 60% fan output, while 40℃ and 45℃ assume 100% fan output, resulting in approximately a 3 dB(A) increase in noise.
Pump Capacity
Diagram Description: A graph shows circulating liquid pressure (MPa) versus circulating liquid flow rate (L/min) for the HRLE090-A-20/40 models. It indicates the usable range for 50Hz and 60Hz operation. The graph specifies that the pump capacity shown is for CH1 when CH2 is operating at 2 L/min.
Outline Dimensions and Part Identification
Diagram Description: Detailed external dimension drawings are provided for the HRLE090-A-20/40 models, showing front, side, and rear views with key dimensions labeled (e.g., Height: 1055mm, Width: 445mm, Depth: 965mm). Anchor bolt mounting positions are indicated. A diagram also labels various parts of the unit, including the tank water inlet, liquid level gauge, operation panel, dust filter, circulating liquid discharge and return ports (specifying sizes like Rc1 for CH1 and Rc1/2 for CH2), power cable outlet, communication cable outlet, and drain port (Rc1/4).
Available Options
Option C: Refrigerant Inverter
Equipped with a refrigerant inverter, this option enhances cooling capacity in 50Hz regions to match the performance of 60Hz specifications. External dimensions remain unchanged.
Option M: DI Water (Pure Water) Piping Compatible
This specification uses materials that avoid copper alloys in the circulating liquid path, suitable for DI water applications. Wetted parts include stainless steel, SiC, carbon, PA, PP, PE, POM, FKM, EPDM, PVC, and PTFE. External dimensions remain unchanged.
Option P: Pump Inverter
Features a pump inverter that improves pump capacity to match 60Hz specifications in 50Hz regions. It also enables adjustable pressure control, allowing automatic adjustment to any desired pressure without needing to modify valve openings. External dimensions remain unchanged.
Optional Accessories
- G-thread Conversion Fitting Set: Converts Rc ports to G-threads.
- NPT Thread Conversion Fitting Set: Converts Rc ports to NPT threads.
- Bypass Piping Set: Ensures minimum required flow rate to maintain temperature stability.
- Electrical Conductivity Control Set: Monitors and controls the electrical conductivity of the circulating fluid.
- Particle Filter Set (CH1/CH2): Removes foreign particles from the circulating fluid.
- Handle: For removing filter cases.
- Tank Water Inlet Filter: Prevents foreign matter from entering the tank during water supply.
