Equipment:
This type of complex thermal ramping requires the use of either a GR150 or a
GP200 Optima thermostat. Any of the Refrigeration units can be controlled
with the exception of R1/R1L. As this example will reduce the temperature
down to -20°C, we can use any of these units. You will also require the
Communications lead as supplied with the Refrigeration unit.
Liquid:
From the section on liquids you will see that the suitable type is 50% water
and 50% glycol.
