CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION
Chiller Application
The aim of the chiller (Product name: Coolix 4000) is to cool the X-ray tube assembly. The chiller supplies
chilled water to an oil-to-water heat exchanger mounted on the X-ray tube that removes the heat produced by the
device. Hot water returning from the tube must be cooled to a temperature of 20°+5° C to a keep the tube
temperature below 50° C. The chiller has two main functions:
1. Circulate water through the x-ray tube heat exchanger.
2. Cool down the water returning to the chiller from the X-ray tube assembly.

Floor Space
The chiller should be installed in a location that allows airflow around the unit. In a room of ambient temperature
77° F (25° C) or less, the chiller must have at least 5 inches (13 cm) of clearance at the front and the back and 16
inches (40 cm) on one side. If the chiller is installed in a room where the ambient temperature is between 77° F
(25° C) and 104° F (40° C), the chiller must have at least 16 inches (40 cm) of clearance at the front and the back
and 33 inches (84 cm) on one side. This space must be provided for proper airflow.
If the seismic mounting bolts are used the floor should be laid out as shown below.
Figure 3

GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS COOLIX 4000 CHILLER
Electrical Requirements
The chiller must be supplied with a dedicated, fused circuit. The circuit breaker should be 10 amp minimum. The
chiller requires 480 volt, 60 Hz, 3 phase power or 380 volt, 50 Hz, 3 phase power. An appropriate ground wire
must be installed to the terminal block in the back of the chiller. The chiller is also supplied with a 6 pin Amp
connector mounted to the rear. This must be connected to the X-ray tube generator in order for the chiller to
operate correctly.
Plumbing Requirements
The chiller is supplied with 16 mm barb connections. The chiller should be connected to the x-ray tube with
hoses that are no longer than 100 feet (30 m). The chiller shall be no more than 10 feet (3 m) below or above the
x-ray tube.
Shipping Requirements
Whenever the chiller is going to be transported it should be packaged in the original shipping crate. This crate is
designed to protect the chiller from potential damage during transit. If the original packaging is unavailable the
chiller should be packaged such that the weight is supported off of the wheels. If this is not done it is possible for
the wheels to be damaged.
The shipping crate is a wooden box 34 in. (86 cm) wide x 45 in. (114 cm) deep x 53 in. (135 cm) tall. It weighs
500 pounds (225 kg) with the chiller in the package.

GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS COOLIX 4000 CHILLER
Electrical Installation
Connect the building 3-phase power supply to the chiller by inserting the power cord through the strain relief and
attaching the leads to the terminal block at the rear of the chiller, labeled L1, L2 and L3. Ring lugs should be
used to ensure that the power cord does not come loose from the terminal block. The chiller must also be
supplied with an appropriate ground wire of at least the same gauge as the main power. It should be attached to
the terminal marked with the ground symbol next to L3.
50 Hz Setup
The chiller is shipped from Lytron configured for 60 Hz operation (480 V). If the system will be run at 50 Hz
(380 V), a few minor changes must be made.
• Disconnect the 480/400 V power from the system.
• Remove the rear access panel from the chiller. There is a switch in the middle of the rear electrical
bracket. Change the switch to the 50 Hz setting to operate the chiller at 50 Hz 380 V. Reassemble the
cover. See Figure 4 below for details.

GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS COOLIX 4000 CHILLER
• Open the cover on the phase loss protection relay at the back of the chiller. See Figure 5 below for
details.
Figure 5
• The DIP switches inside the cover should be set as follows:
Frequency SW1 SW2 SW3 SW4
50 Hz ON OFF ON ON
60 Hz ON OFF OFF OFF
The left side is on and the right side is off for all of the DIP switches.
• After the DIP switches have been set, close the cover. Attach the panel to the lower rear of the chiller.
• When the switches are set properly, the correct voltage is applied, and L1, L2 and L3 are properly
sequenced on the terminal block there will be two green lights illuminated. If there is a problem with any
of these things there will be one green light and one red light illuminated on the phase loss protection
relay.
Hose Installation
The chiller has two 16 mm barb fittings at the rear. These fittings are labeled supply and return. When installing
the hoses to connect the chiller to the x-ray tube be careful to connect the supply hose from the chiller to the inlet
of the X-ray tube. Hose clamps must be used to ensure that there is no leakage from the connections.
While filling the chiller with fluid it will become necessary to briefly run the pump in order to push the air out of
the hoses. In order to do this turn on the power to the unit by closing the circuit breaker, remove the top cover
and the right side panel, and push the switch labeled “Test”. See Figure 6 and Figure 7 below for details. This
will run the pump, compressor and fans while the switch is held in. When the tank nears empty release the
switch. Fill the chiller tank to the top with fluid. Repeat this procedure until the tank remains full. If the unit does
not operate when the switch is pushed, then the power phasing for the unit may be incorrect. If there is no
circulation reverse two of the wires L1, L2 or L3.
NOTE: If the tank runs out of water the pump will need to be changed.

Figure 7
Initial Power Up
After the chiller is connected to the power supply, the hoses have been installed and the tank and hoses are filled,
it is ready for operation. Turn on the power to the system by closing the circuit breaker. At this point the green
light on the front of the unit will come on. This shows that the chiller has power. Push the ON button on the
front of the chiller. If the chiller has been upgraded with the “ever-on” upgrade, the chiller will start immediately.
If the chiller has not been upgraded it will be in standby mode. When it receives the start signal from the service
loop the chiller will start. This start signal should be 230 V 50/60 Hz applied to pins 3 and 4 on the 6-pin
connector at the rear of the chiller.
10
GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS COOLIX 4000 CHILLER
Fault Lights
The chiller is equipped with two fault lights on the front of the unit. They are for low flow and over temperature.
The low flow light will go on if the flow rate of water returning to the chiller from the X-ray tube is less than 2.5
gallons per minute (9.5 liters per minute). This may happen if the lines from the chiller to the X-ray tube are
blocked, they are too long, or at initial startup when the hoses are empty. If the chiller does not sense flow
returning, it will turn on the red low flow light and open the safety loop connection.
The second fault light is for over temperature. This alarm is set to go off if the water temperature is above 30° C.
When the temperature is above this point the red light will come on and the safety loop will be opened. These
two warnings will remain lit until the water temperature is below 30°.
The chiller also has an automatic start feature. While the chiller is in standby mode it is constantly monitoring the
water temperature. If the temperature is above 25° C the chiller will start automatically to cool the water. It will
run until the water has been cooled to 15° C. This ensures that the water is always ready to cool the X-ray tube as
soon as required.

Algae
GEMS requires the use of a chloramine-T solution kit (GE P/N 2351579) to prevent algae growth. Follow the
instructions that accompany the kit to change the fluid in the system. Use the “Manual Purge” switch as shown in
Figure 7.

GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS COOLIX 4000 CHILLER
To return a chiller, the customer must obtain a Lytron Return Material Authorization (RMA) number from Lytron
application engineering or service department and indicate this number on the outside packaging of the returned
unit. Chillers must be returned clean, dry and free from any chemicals to the Lytron factory, shipping costs
prepaid. The customer will be responsible for any damage incurred in the return shipment.
Lytron ordinarily will evaluate the unit within 3 business days of receipt. If upon examination, Lytron
determines the part/unit is defective in materials or workmanship, Lytron will fix or replace the part and pay the
return freight costs. Lytron will use reasonable effort to repair the unit promptly and in most cases within one
week of receiving all the required parts.
If upon examination Lytron finds the chiller has a customer-induced defect, an evaluation fee will be charged.
Lytron will provide a firm cost to fix the unit. Lytron will warranty the repair, only, for one year from the repair
date under the terms of our standard warranty or for the balance of the warranty whichever is longer.
Replacement Parts
Alternatively, at no cost to the customer, Lytron will attempt to diagnose the problem over the phone. Service
technicians are available 24 hours/7 days for consultation at no charge. The customer should recognize that phone
diagnose is often difficult and may actually be a trial and error process. Lytron will not assume any liability for
misdiagnosis when diagnosing over the phone.
The customer can order replacement parts (a PO number must be supplied) at the list price. The customer can
then return the old parts, using a Lytron issued RMA number. If the parts are found to be defective and the claim
is within the warranty period, the customer's account will be credited for the sales price of the parts and one-way
ground shipping charges. If the parts are not defective or indicate customer damage, no credit will be issued.
Customers opting for air shipment of replacement parts will be responsible for the incremental cost, regardless of
warranty status.
In-stock parts normally will be shipped the next business day; non-stocked parts will be shipped as quickly as
reasonably possible.
If customer-arranged labor installs the replacement parts, Lytron does not warranty the parts or work and it
potentially voids any remaining warranty.
