Cole-Parmer CH-400 Air-Cooled Portable Industrial Chiller; 5 to 35°C, 13.2 L/min; 230 VAC, 60 Hz

Description

The Cole-Parmer CH-400 is a portable, air-cooled chiller suitable for laboratory and light industrial settings. It functions within a temperature band of 5 to 35 degrees Celsius and requires a 230 VAC, 60 Hz power source. This version delivers a fluid flow rate of 13.2 liters per minute. Its primary role is to extract waste heat from equipment that produces substantial thermal output during use, including laser systems, electron microscopes, and optical instrumentation. The unit's portable construction permits easy relocation between different workstations as cooling needs change. By stabilizing the temperature of the recirculating coolant, it aids in preventing the overheating of sensitive components, which can impact instrument accuracy and service life. As a self-contained system, it uses fans to dissipate heat into the surrounding air, removing the dependency on an external water supply for cooling.
