The APS facility deionized water supply provides the cooling for the entire accelerator system. In order to ensure the integrity of this supply, it will not be provided for cooling beamline components. (It had previously been indicated that a limited quantity would available for beamline use.)

Chilled water is supplied to the Experiment Hall for beamline use, refer to APS Sector Layout Utilities, etc., ANL/APS/TB-9 for the specifications of this supply. When a deionized water cooling system is required for beamline components, a CAT may install a proprietary closed loop system which can reject heat to the chilled water through a heat exchanger.
