Abstract
A temperature-control apparatus for a printing machine includes a closed, temperature-control fluid circuit including a pump with a suction and pressure side, a fluid feed line feeding temperature-control fluid from a fluid source to the suction side of the pump and a fluid return line on the suction side of the pump between the pump and the load. Temperature-control fluid from the source may be pumped by the pump through the circuit to the load and recycled to the suction side of the pump. A valve is provided in the return line to the source and is controlled by a temperature sensor that senses the temperature in the circuit and selectively directs fluid to the circuit or out of the circuit and back to the source dependent upon the sensed temperature. A flow resistance is located in the temperature-control fluid circuit between the connection points of the fluid feed line and the fluid return line for creating a back pressure in the circuit and aiding the passage of fluid through or out of the circuit through the valve when opened.
