  1. ......yap thats right, my 3/4 HP pac runs 2.5 - 3 hrs and kicks in again abt 7hrs(lights on) or more later(lights OFF). Tank size 5 x 2x 2.5 and sump of abt 4 x 1 x 1. The tank is located just before the balcony and quite breezy and bright. Presently using 4 x 5ft T5 with ATI and Aqua science tubes. Used to hv 2 x 150watt MH with abt the same run and kick in time. Temperature setting from 24 - 27 celsius. 5 pumps in the sump with total wattage of 200+.

    Well, Artica fans, keep yrs as to each its own likings :D:D ......

    Good for u. :lol::lol::lol:

  2. Using the 3/4 hp with the fan direction blowing outwards instead of ###### into the casing to cool the coils. Cooling my 5 x 2 x 2.5 ft tank with ease. Runs abt 2.5 - 3 hrs and cuts in again abt 7hrs or more later.

    :yeah:

    All Arctica Fans u can start throwing away ur Arctica chiller as ur chiller will never be able to rest 7hrs before it start to kick in again. ;)

    U rate a chiller by the running time ( how fast it can chiller down ) and not how long it takes to kicks in .

    Tank temp goes up depends on the other equipments running in the tank that provided the heat load and the weather plays an important part too.

    A tank in an aircorn room with a room temp of 24deg , the tank temp should be around + 1 to 2deg. Normal room temp in hdb is 30 deg in the day time it will take about 1hr or more to go up 1 deg (depends on what is yr tank size n the equipments use)

    A 1/2HP chiller will take not more than an hr to chill 500L of water and takes another 1 and 1/2hr before it kicks in again.

    The best is to run every 1000L of water to 1HP so make ur own caculation . Example 1500L will use a 1.5HP chiller.

    If 1/2 HP chiller runing amp is 3.6 take about 1hr to chill down 1deg , 1 1/2 hr to start up.

    1amp = 220w

    3.6amp = 792w

    1 day run 10hr = 10 X 792w = 7920w

    1000w = $0.21 in PUB bill

    7920w = $1.67 a day

    31day = $51.77

    So the faster u chill down the tank the more u save

    Please list down the tank spec for those who use the wonderfull chiller so people can have a better idea when buying chiller.

  3. dear all bros,

    i am using Resun CL-280 chiller for my 2.5ft tank almost 2 years,i am wonder for last half year after i setup my etss800 with MD55 pump,my tank temparature will raise up to 30c at noon when my 150w MH is switch on.........

    izzit i need to refill the gas to my chiller or my chiller cant stand for it?

    p/s my tank is just around 300L

    yr chiller is still ok :D

    u need to u a cl650 bcause u r using a big pump

    i got the same prom also

    300l with small pump with 150w is ok

    but with 2 90w pump i need to change to 1/4hp

    100l = 1/10hp or less

    200l = 2/10hp or less

    250l = 1/4hp or less

    300l = 1/3hp or less

    500l = 1/2hp or less

    750l = 2/3hp 0r less

    1000l = 1hp or less

    1500l = 1 1/2hp or less

    2000l = 2 hp or less

    this can install any pump n light up to 400w

    hope this can help u
