2. Safety precautions
a Before any maintenance work on the chiller, always switch the CCA power
off inside the Probe Control Set (PCS) cabinet. Make sure that the water
circulation stops.
a Before any maintenance work on the air dryer, always make sure that the
air pressure is set to zero.
For filling the pump container water tank, use only bottled drinking water
(pH 7 - 8). For further requirements, refer to Appendix 2.

3. Overview
The Courier 6 cooling system has two functions: to cool the X-ray tube and to
stabilize the enviromental temperature of the measurement components.
3.1 Modules

Chiller
The chiller module consists of a Rittal water chiller and an adapter plate. The
chiller is an on/off type unit. In other words, the compressor and condenser fans
stop when the temperature of the circulating water reaches the set minimum,
and start when it reaches the set maximum. The temperature difference
between these has to be at least 5 C.
In the TCS variant, the chiller is substituted with a circulating pump, heat
exhanger and mud filter.
Pump container
The container module consists of a container frame and lid, and a submersible
pump. The container is a two-piece design. The water compartments are,
however, connected via small-area holes. Two compartments are necessary
because the system requires two separately controllable water temperatures.
There is a filter insert in the container lid to prevent any dirt from getting in the
system when pouring new water to the container.
The submersible pump is a centrifugal pump the motor of which has been cast
in epoxy.

TCM is a module that contains all XTA cycle and RAS cycle temperature control
elements. Also the flow controls are located there.
Air module
Instrument air is lead through an air module to provide the Automatic Window
Changer (AWC) with pure, dry air. The air module consist of the Air Filter Set
(AFS) and the Air Dryer Set (ADS).

CBS
The CBS module contains all CCA connection strips for connection to PCS. In
LCS and RCS, a fuse that controls the chiller and other cooling system power is
located in CBS.
RAS
The RAS module consists of a heat exhanger cell and fans. The role of this
module is to circulate and stabilize the air around the measurement
components. It also acts as a water condenser, since the warm air meets the
coldest surfaces there.
XTA
The XTA module contains an X-ray source, high voltage connection, radiation
shields.

The fans in the chiller condenser take air from the analyzer environment. This
air cools down the condenser lamina heated by the condesing coolant.
In the RAS module, the fans recycle air through the RAS radiator inside of
which the cooled water circulates. A TC valve controls the water flow into the
radiator so that the recycled air temperature is the set value 0.5 C.
In the XTA circuit, the submersible pump recycles water that transfers heat from
the X-ray source to the lower water compartment of the pump container. When
the water temperature in the XTA circuit reaches the set maximum, a TC valve
opens letting in colder water from the RAS circuit. The small-area holes
between the two container compartments allow the warm water to flow into the
upper compartment and to the chiller.
Heat exhange takes place in the RCS solution excactly the same way as in the
LCS solution.

In the TCS solution, the chiller is replaced with a tapwater cooled heat
exhanger. For other parts, the heat exhange process is similar to the LCS and
RCS solutions.

Tap water taken from the local water distribution system flows through a mud
filter to a plate heat exhanger. The closed circuit water coming from the pump
container cools down there before flowing into the RAS cooling circuit (see
Figure 9 above). The heated tap water is lead to sewer.

4. Maintenance
4.1 Tools
In addition to the basic tools, you need an air blow gun (6/4 mm) or a vacuum
cleaner.
Follow the order presented in the checklists below. For more detailed task
descriptions, see the section 4.4.
5. Check the hoses and cables between the chiller and CCA
6. Check the air module tubings
7. Switch the CCA power off
8. Change the water
9. Clean the filter insert in the pump container
10. Clean the inside of the CCA
11. Clean the chiller condenser
12. Switch the CCA power on
13. Verify the water pressures
14. Verify the air pressures
Every 12 months:
change the AFS air filter
change the ADS micro and sub micro filters

Read the pressure gauges before doing any other maintenance work. Write
the readings down.
Read the gauges also after completing all other maintenance work. They
should show the same readings as before.
For 50 Hz supply current, a typical water pressure in the XTA circuit is 0.4
bar and in the RAS circuit 0.7 bar. For 60 Hz supply current, the values are
slightly higher, about 0.5 bar and 0.9 bar, respectively.
In the RCS, check the hoses and cables between the chiller and CCA. Make
sure there are no leakages or buckling in the hoses.
If there is a lot of dust inside the cabinet, consider installing filters in the
air intakes.
Changing water
If the sieve is slimy, consider adding biocide in the water. Refer to local
water treatment instructions.

To change a filter:
1. Pressing the latch, pull the filter cover down.
2. Unscrew the filter holder. The used filter falls off.
3. Put the new filter in its place, secure with the holder and push the cover
back in its place.
5. Troubleshooting
