Thermo scientific has air/water chillers. Google: thermo scientific neslab merlin recirculating chillers brings up the links. We have one of these cooling an Oxford xcalibur. It supplies circulating cold water under pressure which we hook up where the house chilled water would go on the water/waer heat exchanger.

Dear Andreas, we had a similar issue with our MicroMax 007, with a primary water/water chiller (ATC K3) in between the generator and a secondary inhouse water circuit. After a year of reliable service the K3 would shut off occasionally and dump the 007 with a cooling error. We found that the solution to the issue was to place an additional pump directly in front of the K3. The issue being that the latter would temporarily shut off unless provided with a constant water pressure, which the water circuit wasn't giving apparently. This has now been running fine. Another solution would be a water-air chiller to cool your 007, but in our case that was not an option due to building specs. Hope this helps. I'm happy to provide more details if wanted.

I was wondering what alternatives exist. Could other MicroMax 007 users share their experiences with alternative cooling solutions with me? Thank you.
