Liquid cooling systems: Leakless v.2
ATLAS / TRT and CMS / MSGC Cooling Unit
Technical Specifications
Uniphase cooling unit composed by 2 independant circuits: The
cooling circuit (secondary) is cooled by a fridge circuit (primary) via
a coaxial heat exchanger.
-
Primary circuit:
-
Air cooled Fridge 1kW @ +5°C / +32°C.
-
Secondary circuit:
