Continuous glass filaments manufacturing equipment

An apparatus for producing continuous glass filaments by spinning molten glass through nozzles of a bushing and cooling the thus-spun filaments, comprising:

• at least one cooled manifold;
• and
• fins joined to the at least one cooled manifold and arranged in a proximity of said nozzles,
• wherein said at least one manifold includes at least three ports in fluid communication with each other, at least one of the at least three ports is an inlet port for liquid coolant and at least one of the at least three ports is an outlet port for the liquid coolant from the inlet port, a total number of said inlet and outlet ports being the same as the number of the at least three ports, and wherein the at least one manifold is configured to have the liquid coolant flow into the at least one manifold exclusively through the at least one inlet port and flow out of the at least one manifold exclusively through the at least one outlet ports.
