Use Component Coolant Spray

Component coolant spray is a type of aerosol spray that is used to cool system components so that they can be safely handled for repair, replacement or cleaning. There are several types of coolant sprays.


Instructions


1. Learn how component coolant sprays are used. Components (elements of a system) get quite hot when in operation. In order to be able to safely handle components of any type of system, be it electronic or automotive or whatever, it's necessary to cool down the component parts. Coolant sprays can be obtained in aerosol spray cans or a type of spray tool attached to a canister.


2. Use Freon in an aerosol spray can for cooling component parts. Freon in convenient cans has been the most widely used type of component coolant spray. It is easy to use and several workers can use it simultaneously. Environmentalists have determined that the disadvantage of the Freon cooling spray is that Freon can be damaging to the ozone layer.


3. Consider the use of component coolant spray in the form of carbon dioxide spray tools. Carbon dioxide is not as detrimental to the environment or the ozone layer. However, this form of component coolant spray is not as easy to use or as flexible as Freon spray cans. To use component coolant spray in the form of carbon dioxide requires a canister that must be refilled. The canister is heavy and awkward to handle when it's filled with carbon dioxide.


4. Handle either type of component coolant spray carefully when in use. Each type can be fitted with a nozzle that controls the spray so that it only goes on the component you need to cool.
