(1)Cooling water specification
The quality of cooling water is specified in the table below. If tap water
is used, it should be treated in an ion exchanger.
Refrigerator/air–conditioner cooling water quality standard

(2)Anticorrosive
To avoid cooling water trouble and minimize the frequency of cooling
water exchange, the following anticorrosive should be added to the
cooling water. Consult the chiller manufacturer for use of the
anticorrosive.
Product name: CONTLIME K–6000
Manufacturer: MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL. ISC
Use: Refer to the description indicated on the product.
Replace the cooling water every year, even if an anticorrosive has been
added to it.
(3)Cleaning agent
The following cleaning agent should be used. Consult the chiller
manufacturer for use of the cleaning agent.
Product name: DESLIME
Manufacturer: MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL ISC
Use: Refer to the description indicated on the product.
(4)Antifreezing solution
If the chiller is used in a cold district, it should be provided with an
antifreezing function. When it is extremely cold, the chiller should be
kept running. If it is necessary to use an antifreezing solution for lack
of an alternative, the following antifreezing solution should be used.
Its concentration should be 30% (usually) or 40% (in an extremely
cold district). Use of an antifreezing solution should be restricted
within four months in winter. Do not use antifreezing solution
together with an anticorrosive. The following antifreezing solution is
already added with an anticorrosive.
Product name: AURORA BRINE
Manufacturer: TOKYO FINE CHEMICAL Co.
Use: Refer to the description indicated on the product.
