Recirculating Chiller Requirements
The TIM Testers requires a recirculating chiller for coolant flow with sufficient temperature stability and flow requirements for optimal test results.
Recommended Chiller Specifications
- Flow Rate (minimum): 1.6 gal/min (6 liter/min) via positive displacement pump
- Typical pressure: 60 psi (340 kPa)
- Temperature Control Stability: +/- 0.1°C @ 750W or more
- Set Point Range (minimum): 10°C - 35°C
One of the recommended chiller models that are controllable via serial communication is essential. WinTIM software uses the serial control link to turn the chiller ON/OFF and to change the chiller setpoints. WinTIM software supports serial-equipped Thermo-Fisher, Lytron, and PolyScience chillers with serial command tables that are embedded in WinTIM software.
The following chiller models all provide serial control and meet the operational coolant flow requirements. All of these chillers can be used for either the TIM 1300 or TIM 1400 testers:
