In some devices, the cooling circuit has to be vented when it is being filled, depending on the
device type and the frame size.
● It is not necessary to vent the heat sinks on Active Interface Modules, frame size JXL, on
Active Line Modules, frame size GXL and on Motor Modules, frame sizes FXL and GXL
before they are filled for the first time.
● The heat sinks on Basic Line Modules, frame sizes FBL, GBL, on Active Line Modules,
frame sizes HXL, JXL and on Motor Modules, frames sizes HXL, JXL must be vented
before they are filled for the first time.
– For this purpose, the devices are fitted with a vent valve at the top and a vent hose at
– A stopper is inserted in the lower end of the vent hose at the factory. This must be
