3. SUGGESTIONS FOR INSTALLATION:
1. Electrical work must be done by a qualified electrician.
2. A dedicated power outlet should be used for the unit.
3. Ensure that the power source conforms to the power requirements specified on the product nameplate.
4. The power supply should be fitted with earth leakage breaker.
5. Disconnect the power during installation.
6. The DC4000 model is not fitted with a plug and should be professionally wired using a suitable contactor.
4. INSTALLATION METHODS
Note:
The chiller must be operated with a recirculating and filtered water supply system.
The chiller also can be installed in a hidden position, such as inside a closed aquarium cabinet, however if your
cabinet has no ventilation or grilles then they must be created, allowing a minimum opening area of 450cm2
for the flow of air. When the grilles are being formed, make sure that the air intake openings are in alignment
with the grilles on the chiller and that the air outlet grille on the cabinet is made as high as possible to efficiently
expel the hot air. The chiller should be installed with its back as near as possible to the grille of the cabinet
to allow fresh air circulation. For the best air circulation, it is suggested to install your chiller outside of the
aquarium cabinet.
If the chiller is placed under a water fish tank fitted with filter, the water feed can go directly to the inlet feed of
the chiller. For salt water, it is especially important that the water must be filtered before feeding the chiller, or
there is a possibility of blocking the coil and this will affect the cooling.
5. BEFORE STARTING THE OPERATION OF THE CHILLER, PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING:
(1) Check if the water level inside the aquarium is suitable for the continuous supply of water.
(2) Make sure that there are no water leaks from the hose and pipe connections.
(3) Insert the power plug fully into the power outlet so that the plug itself does not wobble.
(4) Double check the circulating & filtration system, especially that the circulating tube is not clogged.
