LAUDA process thermostats of the Kryoheater Selecta (KHS) series ensure high-performance temperature control at high energy efficiency and reliability. The compact device construction provides a long service life and maintenance friendliness.
Corresponding to the lowest working temperature, two-stage compressors (up to -60 °C) and/or cascade cooling systems (up to -90 °C) are used. The condenser is cooled by means of cooling water. The cooling capacity is controlled continuously and precisely by injection control. A step switch ensures energy-saving and low-wear partial load operation using an automatic compressor system. By means of the electric heating, Kryoheater Selecta can cover an operating temperature of up to 200 °C.

The Kryoheater Selecta series consists of the two systems KHS 3560 W and KHS 2190 W, which are used in chemical and pharmaceutical production as well as for the simulation of environmental conditions in test stands of the automobile and aerospace industries.
Advantages ensured by nitrogen overlay
A nitrogen overlay permits the insulation of the heat transfer liquid from atmospheric oxygen in pressureless operation. This prevents an oxidation at high temperatures. Thus the life of the heat transfer liquid is extended drastically on the one hand and in addition the maximum operating temperature permitted is increased. In addition, the overlay prevents the condensation of air humidity at low temperatures. The Kryoheater Selecta process thermostats have been designed for pressurised operation. By a pressurized operation with nitrogen the advantages mentioned above are reached, and in addition the boiling points of the heat transfer liquids and thus the maximum permissible operating temperatures are increased.

Application example
Cooling process of a 250 L reactor between 20 and -50 °C
- High efficiency for every temperature setpoint value by using precisely harmonised refrigerants and frequency-controlled compressors. In case of KHS 2190 W, the two frequency-controlled compressors are automatically run in single or two stage operation depending on load and temperature.
- Transport of the heat transfer liquid with the required pressure by means of the 2.2 kW magnetically coupled and frequency controlled pump in the external consumer, such as a reactor.
- Limitation of the outlet temperature; programmable temperature ramps as well as Delta T limitations to take minimum and maximum temperature loads of reactors into consideration.
- Link to the process control system by various interface options enabled by the standard Siemens PLC control
