Filling & Conditioning Tool VM0003 Print

Helium filling and conditoning tool for most IDCA coolers.

Conditioning Tool

In order to fill IDCA Stirling coolers with Helium, Thales Cryogenics proposes a filling and conditioning tool, compliant with all known IDCA coolers (from Thales Cryogenics and other suppliers). After several cycles of pumping / Helium filling of the cooler (placed in a climatic chamber), the cooler is filled with the appropriate pressure of Helium

Design Features

  • Helium filling and conditioning for most of IDCA coolers
  • Allows exchange of cooler done by end user
  • Up to 35 bar filling pressure (or more on request)
  • Easy to use
  • Portable and secure
  • Compliant with military environment

Specifications

  • Safety valve
  • Adjustment of cooler charging pressure
  • Dry vacuum pump
  • Supply voltage: 230 VAC / 50Hz or 60Hz(110 VAC with factory tuning
  • 3 channels manual valve
  • Digital display of inlet pressure, downstream pressure, vacuum level
  • Counter for pumping / filling cycles
