LASER PARTS | WATER COOLING & CHILLERS
CW-5200 Refrigerated Water Chiller for CO2 Laser Machines
The CW-5200 is a compressor-based refrigerated water chiller designed to provide actively controlled cooling for water-cooled glass CO2 laser tubes. Unlike radiator-style cooling systems, the CW-5200 can lower coolant temperature below the surrounding room temperature to help maintain consistent operating conditions during engraving and cutting.
With approximately 1,400W of cooling capacity in common configurations, precision temperature control, and built-in alarm protection, the CW-5200 is a practical cooling solution for compatible higher-power CO2 laser machines, longer engraving jobs, and repeated production runs.

Recommended Applications
The CW-5200 is commonly used with compatible higher-power CO2 laser systems, including:
- 80W and 90W CO2 laser machines
- Compatible 100W and 130W glass CO2 laser tubes
- Laser engraving and cutting machines used for longer production runs
- Applications requiring actively controlled coolant temperatures
- Cooling applications with greater heat loads than basic radiator-cooled systems can manage
The correct chiller should be selected based on laser tube cooling requirements, ambient temperature, expected operating time, coolant flow, and total heat load.
Intelligent Temperature Control
The CW-5200 supports intelligent and constant-temperature control modes. Intelligent mode adjusts the target coolant temperature in relation to surrounding conditions, while constant-temperature mode allows the operator to select a fixed temperature.
Temperature settings should match the laser tube's cooling requirements. Setting coolant temperatures unnecessarily low may cause condensation on the laser tube and coolant lines.
Built-In Equipment Protection
The CW-5200 monitors coolant circulation and temperature during operation. Its built-in alarms help identify problems such as interrupted water flow, excessive or unusually low coolant temperatures, and temperature sensor faults.
When properly connected to a compatible laser machine, the chiller's alarm output can be integrated with the laser protection circuit to help prevent operation when a cooling fault is detected.
Important Operating Information
Always fill the chiller with the coolant recommended for your laser system before operation. Never operate the circulation pump without coolant.
Place the chiller in a clean, dry, well-ventilated area with adequate clearance around the air inlet and exhaust. Regularly inspect the coolant level, tubing, connections, and air filter to maintain proper cooling performance.
Compatibility & Installation
This listing is for the 220V AC version of the CW-5200 refrigerated water chiller. Verify your available electrical service and laser tube cooling requirements before ordering.
Confirm the required coolant flow, hose connections, and compatibility with your laser machine's cooling protection circuit before installation.
