Installation
1. Fill the plastic tank (No. 11 in Figure 44) with water right up to the overflow (the
reservoir lid can be removed). (See Figure 45)
2. To connect the Chiller to the fermenter jacket, remove the quick connect from
the end of the large pump tube, place a hose clamp over the tube and insert the
3/8” hose barb x 1.5” tri-clamp. Tighten the clamp and connect a hose from the tri-
clamp fitting to the jacket inlet port near the bottom of the fermenter. Connect a
non-kinking return hose to the jacket exit port (the top port) and insert the exit end
back into the water reservoir of the Chiller (No. 11 in Figure 44). Secure the hose so
it will not come out. (See Figure 46)
Note: When connecting tubes to the coils for chilling beverages (AS110), use only
fittings and clips specified by the supplier.
Use a calibrated tube 6.7 x 9.5 mm.
After connection, check all joints to ensure they are properly sealed.
Temperature and Settings
Models AS110 and AS200 have
an adjustable mechanical
thermostat located on the front
of the chiller.
As shown in Figure 47, the
temperature of the water bath
is controlled by the mechanical
thermostat between 4°C
(position 7) and 10°C (position
1). At the coldest setting
(position 7) it is not abnormal
for ice to form on the coils.
While it is up to the individual
brewer, it is generally
recommended to set the
thermostat at position 1 when
fermenting ales, and position
7 when fermenting lagers. It is
desirable to keep the chilling
water bath not more than
about 5°C cooler than the
fermenting temperature to
