Air conditioning for Glove Boxes

Jacomex Solutions

Gbox

Description

Air conditioning systems allow the work space of a containment enclosure to be cooled. They can be mounted both on a glove box under neutral gas and on an air glove box and in installations in closed, open or semi-open circuits.

Technical data

Technical specifications - Information

Air/air exchanger type system

Internal heat exchanger with variable power depending on the desired temperature, the ΔT and the volume of the glove box

Maintenance-free, vibration-free external cooling unit

Refrigerant gas compliant with safety and environmental regulations

Allows the temperature of the gas in the closed-loop purification circuit to be cooled and thus guarantees optimization of the moisture removal process.

Maintains the temperature of the work volume at 20°C, at air-conditioned room temperature or ΔT 10-15°C depending on ambient conditions

A/C air conditioning acts directly at the workstation in applications in production and advanced research for the elimination of a significant thermal load, but also in experiments and processes in biology and in medicine in order to obtain an adjustable air-conditioned atmosphere.

They are used to cool down certain processes or instruments placed in glove boxes, for example high temperature ovens and heating plates, torches or TIG welding, which generate a rise in the temperature of the gas and which is detrimental to proper operation.

Closed-loop gas recirculation systems designed by Jacomex do not generate a rise in temperature and therefore do not require additional specific cooling.

Nevertheless some processes or instruments placed in glove boxes can cause an elevation in temperature of the atmosphere of the glove box. Similarly, if the glove box is not installed in an air-conditioned room and the ambient temperature can reach 35 ° to 40 ° C in periods of high heat, we would advise that either an air conditioning or an air exchanger/water unit be connected to the purification circuit.
