THE WATER AND

AIR SUPPLIES

The standard WT.ST tanks are designed for use with city, tower or chilled water supplies. You may choose to treat the water to prevent algae build-up.

WARNING: Do not use deionized water, brine or other corrosive water mixtures for the main water supply unless your tank has been specially designed for such mixtures. Consult a water treatment special- ist for the best way to prevent algae build-up without damaging the equipment.

CONNECTING A CHILLER

You can connect a chiller to the tank’s optional heat exchang- er to remove heat from the extrudate more efficiently. Typically, the tank comes with the 3/4 inch lines of the stan- dard tube and shell heater plumbed to the tank’s water mani- fold. The 11/2 inch inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger can be used for the chiller.

TIP: If you have a water supply with high mineral content, connect the chiller to the tube ends of the heat exchanger.

For maximum water flow:

Connect the chiller “To Process” and “From Process” lines to the largest NPT fittings in the shell of the heat exchanger.
