Circulating-water mold temperature controls come in three configurations. Sub-Compact
units are 13 by 26 by 26 inches. Direct-inject cooling provides fast response.
Standard Heavy-Duty controls give molders a choice of direct-inject or indirect
cooling, with separate cooling and process circuits to allow use of ethylene
glycol and prevent waterline damage. The units have a 16 by 27-inch footprint.
Vertical units are 17 inches wide by 21 inches deep. The upright configuration
puts the control panel at a height of 49 inches. Vertical models are available
in both direct and indirect cooling models, sized to 3 hp. All three models
feature auto-tune microprocessor controls. A seal-flush system keeps seals clean
and cool. The 9-kW heater is positioned vertically to maintain immersion and
minimize the risk of damage, and it is insulated for efficiency. A horizontal
pump mounting minimizes cavitation and maximizes flow. Protective devices include
an internal bypass waterline, a heater/pump interlock, a high-pressure relief
valve, and a low-pressure cutout. Prices for the mold-temperature controls start
at $1645.
