OneLaser Chiller For Hydra & Cobra Glass Tube Laser System

The Chiller Every OneLaser Glass-Tube CO2 Laser Needs to Survive Its First Week The OneLaser CW-5200 delivers 1,400W of cooling capacity and ±0.3°C temperature control — sized for a single 150W or dual 100W glass CO2 laser tube, and required (not optional) on every Cobra and glass-tube Hydra system. A glass CO2 laser tube generates serious heat the moment you fire it. Without a closed-loop chiller holding that tube at a stable, precise temperature, the glass cracks, the seal fails, or the tube's output degrades within hours — not months. This isn't an upgrade accessory; it's the component standing between your laser tube and a repair bill that costs more than the chiller itself. If your OneLaser machine runs a glass CO2 tube, this chiller isn't a nice-to-have. It's part of the machine. 1,400W of Cooling, Sized for Real Production Loads The CW-5200 is rated for 1,400W of cooling capacity (5,084 BTU/h) — enough to run a single 150W glass CO2 tube or two 100W tubes simultaneously without the temperature climbing during long engraving or cutting runs. A 0.52kW compressor with built-in overcurrent protection keeps output stable even during back-to-back production jobs, not just occasional hobby use. Dual-Mode Temperature Control, Accurate to ±0.3°C The CW-5200 holds your tube's coolant temperature to within ±0.3°C using two selectable control modes: Constant mode, which locks to a fixed temperature you set between 5–40°C, and Intelligent mode, which automatically adjusts based on ambient room temperature. That precision matters — a glass tube running even a few degrees outside its optimal range loses beam quality and shortens its own lifespan. Multi-Layer Alarm and Protection System Four separate safeguards protect your laser tube from a chiller failure turning into a machine failure: a flow alarm that triggers if coolant circulation drops or stops, an over-temperature alarm if the water gets too hot to protect the tube, compressor overcurrent protection, and compressor time-delay protection that prevents short-cycling damage on restart. If something goes wrong with the cooling loop, you'll know before your tube does. 6L Tank and 10L/min Flow Rate for Continuous Runs A 6-liter built-in tank paired with a 10L/min maximum flow rate gives the CW-5200 enough thermal buffer to handle sustained cutting jobs without the coolant temperature drifting mid-run. 10mm brass inlet and outlet connectors make plumbing into your Cobra or Hydra's existing tube lines straightforward — no proprietary fittings to source separately. Compact Footprint, Simple to Place and Run At 49 × 29 × 40.5cm and 27kg, the CW-5200 sits beside or under most Cobra and Hydra cabinets without needing dedicated floor space. Setup is limited to running two water lines and a power cable — no additional configuration, software, or calibration required before your first engrave. Environmentally Responsible Refrigerant The CW-5200 uses a R-32 / R-1234yf / R-513A refrigerant blend (360g charge) — lower-GWP options than older R-22-based chillers, so you get industrial cooling performance without the environmental and phase-out concerns tied to legacy refrigerants. Which OneLaser Machines Require This Chiller This chiller is compatible with, and required for, any OneLaser machine running a glass CO2 laser tube: Cobra 8 (90W glass CO2 tube) Cobra 10 (100W glass CO2 tube) Cobra 14 (130W glass CO2 tube) Hydra 9 (100W glass CO2 / 38W RF hybrid — chiller required for the glass tube side) Hydra 13 (130W glass CO2 / 38W or 70W RF hybrid — chiller required for the glass tube side) Hydra 16 (150W glass CO2 / 38W RF hybrid — chiller required for the glass tube side) It is not required for machines running an RF metal tube only, such as the current Hydra 7 (RF-only configuration) or the OneLaser XRF and X series — those tubes are air-cooled by design.
