Cooling thermostats
High-performance cooling thermostats from -90 to 200 °C
The LAUDA Proline Kryomate cooling thermostats are designed for demanding low-temperature applications in process technology and material testing. These high-performance thermostats combine high cooling output with a compact design and provide an efficient solution for temperature control from -90 to 200 °C.
The systems feature an integrated cooling system and microprocessor-based control technology. Their spacious baths and large bath openings make them suitable for bulky test specimens and applications requiring efficient throughput.
Temperature control for low-temperature applications
The Proline Kryomate thermostats are available in air-cooled and water-cooled versions, with bath volumes between 30 and 40 litres.
A pressure pump optimized for internal circulation provides adjustable flow performance with four selectable output levels. For additional flexibility, pump connections are available on the side and rear, with an integrated bypass.
The electronically controlled heating of the bath edge and bath bridge prevents moisture from atmospheric humidity from condensing and freezing on the device during low-temperature operation.
User-friendly operation and programming
The removable LAUDA Command operating unit provides flexible operation and can also be used as a remote control. It features a high-resolution, backlit graphic LCD display with different display modes and individually selectable display functions.
Operation is supported through:
- Cursor keys
- Numeric soft keys
- Combined input options
The integrated programmer supports up to 150 temperature/time segments, which can be divided into five separate programs. A timer function allows the thermostat to be switched on, placed into standby mode or used for program operation.
The EasyUse system simplifies operation of the complete unit.
Control technology and safety functions
The Proline Kryomate cooling thermostats use fully electronic continuous control with PID action for both internal and external temperature control.
Integrated functions include:
- SelfCheck Assistant for system diagnostics
- Low-level and overtemperature protection for non-flammable liquids
- Additional Tmax key for overtemperature protection
- Adjustment of bath circulation according to application
- Self-adapt function for determining control parameters
- Green LED temperature display
The PowerAdapt system enables the use of the maximum possible heating power permitted by the available power supply.
Connectivity and system integration
The thermostats include an optically decoupled RS 232/485 interface as standard. Additional communication options can be added through upgrade modules, including:
- RS 232/485
- Profibus
- Analogue modules
- Contact modules
- Ethernet-USB module
Energy-efficient cooling management
The Proline Kryomate series includes the SmartCool system for energy-saving digital cooling management, including automatic compressor on/off control. The systems use traditional HFC refrigerants in accordance with European legislation for controlling F-gases (EU) 573/2024. Condenser cooling is available in water-cooled and air-cooled versions.
