| About the ACS-3 |
| About the Chiller Panel |
The ACS-3 is a unique three-stage air chiller system for subambient temperature control and general cooling of select instrumentation from TA. Supported instruments and environmental systems include the DMA Q800 with standard furnace (-100°C), Discovery Hybrid Rheometer models with Environmental Test Chamber (-85°C), and ARES-G2/ RSA-G2 with Forced Convection Oven (-100°C). The ACS-3 features low-noise durable compressors (approx. 55 dB), small footprint, uninterrupted operation, CFCfree, and for specified temperature ranges, eliminates the recurring cost and safety concerns associated with handling and use of liquid nitrogen. The ACS-3 requires an air supply at pressure of 7 bar (100 psi), flow rate of 200 l/min, and dew point of -40°C (-40°F), and appropriate instrument-specific Chiller Panel.
The Chiller Panel is mounted to the side of the ACS-3. The Chiller Panel assembly contains all of the pneumatic and electronic components needed to filter, regulate, and control the compressed gas (air or nitrogen) that is supplied to the ETC.
