[terryansimon]

how do you know that its not cold? from a thermometer?

I don't know but my chiller you can set temperature compensation on the read out on the chiller itself. do not PM me to ask how, coz mine is an Eido chiller and not a Resun.

[Dispar_Anthias]

need to know what lighting you using and how big is your tank in first place.

[bwilly]

there should be some temperature differential from tank n chiller.

impt. to note is yr tank size, lighting. your chiller may be underpower to cool your tank for one. but no other info. can't advise.

tank size is 3 x 2 x 2.5, 90gallons.. lighting is 2 x double linear strips.. chiller display planel is 29degree so is mine theromter... i feel the inside of the chiller but is cold ler... rreally duno wat to do. i contact the supplier liao but he took so long to come..

I'm using Resun too. CL300 & it manage to cool my 24"18"18" tank to 25-26. Think u got to adjust the chiller temp to the same as that in the tank.

Could u describe more as ur description is very vague. ie. what is the temp shown on ur chiller & that in the tank (u need to have another digital themormeter in the tank).

[ghost]

mine temperature shown on the tank is 29 n the display on the chiller is the same, but one problem is tat i hv on the chiller for 48hrs n its still diplay the same tmperature.. i hv set the chiller to 25degree

From wat u said the chiller should start running & cold down the tank.

Ok. why not we start from the beginning. Off the chiller & restart it & follow the below steps.

1. sync the temp of the tank & chiller.

- Remember the temp of ur chiller. now press the set button for 10 secs until the display shows CA. Now u can sync the chiller temp by pressing + or - (if chiller is initially showing 28 & the tank is 30, then u press + twice until the display shows +2).

- press the set button for about 3 sec & the chiller temp will be set

- wait for a few secs, the chiller display temp will change from 28 to 30

2. set the desire temp

- press set & set the desire temp

3. Chiller power light should light up & slowly the chiller light will also light up & u can hear the fan running. Guess within 1-2hrs, it should cool down the water.

Hint : use a blue plastic hose shown below to adjust the flows. Sometimes, it could be ur water flows r to fast too be cool down effectively & the chiller will need to run for a long time.

How much you pay for your CL450??? can PM me? sister BF is looking for 1units.

i am using the CR450 too, what type of pump u using, i mean the working rate L/H???.

knowing that cannot had too high power rate pump, as the water pump out too fast before it been cool. Also cannot under rate. i am using a 1200L/H pump, working very fine, set at 25, main tank reach about 24.5 constandly.

[ghost]

mine is SP6000..2800l/h, i know is too fast liao n also i change to a rate of 1200l/h liao too but the results is still like tat ler..dunno y... 60hrs past liao still remain the same temperature...

[Hondace]

in tis case, ur chiller may be spoilt. Is it new?

[ghost]

i also not sure is it spoilt anot cos when i opened up the chiller n feel the inside is cold...it onli 2months old so i hv contact the supplier oreadi..
