<p>Method and apparatus for providing a controlled pressure liquid circulation system comprising a circulation conduit through which a liquid can be circulated and recirculated to accomplish a desired function, such as heating and/or cooling of a work station such as a mold. The invention involves opening and closing said circulation conduit to a source of supply liquid, such as city water, at elevated pressure while maintaining the controlled pressure of the liquid within said circulation conduit at a substantially lower pressure, and is characterized by maintaining the circulation conduit open to a drain line at all times and providing or maintaining a drain pressure which is at least slightly above atmospheric and is equal to the pressure desired within the circulation conduit in the area thereof which is open to the drain.</p> |
