Teco Chiller Ops

[sherchoo]

Need some operating instruction about Teco Chiller:

How do I set the temperature range. I know have to go to b5. Problem is how do I select b5?

Hope you get what I mean.

Hi Sherwin,

I have the Teco instructions if you want. Never read it though. Can photocopy for you.

Cheers,

Benny,

I have the instruction book too. Went thru it but no info.

Then the only thing left is to call Aquatechnic if no one else can help. Sometimes they can be quite helpful. Try looking for Peter instead.

Press and hold the 'set' button for more than 10 secs. Then a 'P1' will appear on the screen. Press 'set' button until you see 'P5', then use the 'up' and 'down' button.

Wei Chien,

Thanks.... wanted to change the temp range cos it was stopping and starting too quickly.

btw, the b not P. At least mine is.

[kingpin]

Sherwin,

Mine is 'P'. I set my temperature difference to 2 so that the chiller only kicks in once a day.

I learn something new today........

Wei Cheng,

Sorry, mispelled you name.... Anyway, when chiller kicks in, how long does it normally run?

Mine kicks in and out several times a day until my 2 hands cannot count.

Hi Guys...

I see P 1, P 2 P 3 and ....

What are these????

Thanks

Phang,
The important settings are P2 and P7.

P2-Temperature difference before chiller kicks in (usually set at 2 so chiller dun kick in so often)
P3-Minimum temperature setting (Preset at 15)
P4-Maximum Temperature setting (Preset at 35)
P7-Calibration for chiller's display with your thermometer (Mine set at -3)

Sherwin,
Mine kicks in once a day for about 2 hours. Starts when digital thermometer shows 28.3 degree and stops at 26.3 degree.

Whats P5 then???

Can explain on P3,4 and 7???

[kingpin]

Phang,
I forgot what is P5 used for. But mine is set at 0(By previous owner). P3 is the minimum temperature you can set. P4 is the maximum. More of a safety feature, so that you cannot set anything below or above it. For P7, it is for the user to calibrate the chiller's display against the thermometer in the aquarium. For example, the chiller's display shows 27 while your thermometer shows 28. Then you have to scroll to P7 and set to 1 so that the chiller's display will plus 1 and shows 28, matching your thermometer.

Vincent,

Another issue... your calibration is 3 degrees way Off????
And your display able to show by .1 decimal placing???

Mine can't.....

[kingpin]

Phang,
Yup, mine is 3 degree off. The .1 decimal is from my digital thermometer, not my chiller.

[Phang]

So your Chiller's display is in whole numbers... right...never seen a Teco with display under decimals.....

And to change the readings... would be the "up" and "down" keys , Right??
