Abstract

Eine Vorrichtung (1) mit einem Wärmetauscher (2) mit einer Zuleitung (3) für ein Medium (16) von einem Mediumeinlass (4) zum Wärmetauschereingang (5) und einer Ableitung (6) vom Wärmetauscherausgang (7) zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass sie einen ersten Bypass (8) vom Mediumeinlass (4) zur Ableitung (6) und einen zweiten Bypass (9) von der Zuleitung (3) zum Mediumauslass (10) und Ventilen (11-14) aufweist, sodass das Medium (16) auch vom Wärmetauscherausgang (7) zum Wärmetauschereingang (5) fließen kann.
