hi guys ,

i'm looking for a good PS or DIY one .... anyone can help me ...PLS

thanks ...

to all those that i have asked .... thanks again

can get beckett 1048 in australia ??

[kelstorm]

u can keep more than 1 cleaner shrimps inside your tank.. they will help each other to fertilise their eggs...

btw, the pic on Las Vegas, u sure u not taking pics of the gals?? hahahha.. anyway, that tank is impressive..

[kelstorm]

daryll,

u can try getting this.. i leave this temp probe(metal part) inside the tank 24/7 for the past yr, never even rust.. power leh.. got from sim lim.. can't recall the price though.. should be ard the region of $30.

[mv3i]

that looks like one of those temp probe used in the kitchen ... think my mom or gf should have one ... but not too sure if the probe will last

also would need a temperature controller to measure the actual tank temp such that it can override the sensor on the chiller ...

any idea, bro

[kelstorm]

daryll,

i had the probe inside my tank 24/7 for the past yr.. never rust at all.. so, no worries.. and yes, it is the same probe that ppl use in kitchen... not too bad, up to 1 decimal pt.. and that probe will measure the temp of your tank accurately...

kelstorm, any idea how much will one of these probe cost? I am looking around for a digital thermometer that is reliable. Give up hope on those Taiwan made ones..

Daryll,

For those Temperature probes that you are looking for, the ones that can be used to trigger the on and off function of chiller should be available at Sim Lim... I think in AC or DC ....

About the know-hows to integrate it to the chiller, you should approach the technical guys here.....

A reply from a fellow forumer regarding the temp control....

" A dc relay Controller with +/- 1 degree resolution with transformer, temp probe, etc cost $55! the wiring is really easy if you had experience with electric circuits. Go check it out!

I am currently using a direct AC temp controller. A similar model with

+/-0.1 degree resolution will cost about $120++. Wiring is even simpler!"

[mv3i]

so you are not using the temp sensor on your teco then ???

no wonder ...

btw ... which shop in simlim you got it from ???

got techies out there can help ??

[Phang]

I'm using the temp control on my teco...

Check with Cedric...... he's the technical whizz with this....

[mv3i]

yeah ,

got in touch with him.... he recommended sim lim tower ... but so many shop and dunno what is price range like .... also is it compatible with all types of chiller ...

how did you connect yours to the teco ....

can draw a simple diagram .... did someone help fix it up for you ?

[robe]

THere's a refrigeration shop along Jln Besar that sells digital controller for around $60. The controller is powered by 230V AC with an integral AC relay for connectionto the compressor.

If ur coming from Lavender its on the right side of Jln Besar before you reach Kitchener Road.

[mv3i]

thanks alot robe , are you using one ? when you say AC relay for compressor ..... means that i have to connect to the chiller ??

or can i do it some other way

[mv3i]

went there and bad luck ... they doing stock take .... but got this prata over the weekend
