1/4- ½ Hp

  • No plumbing required; drop titanium coil directly in tank or sump
  • Maintains water temperatures in the range of 50° – 80°F (*see specifications)
  • Oversized helical titanium coil in the heat exchanger maximizes BTU transfer efficiency.
  • TITANIUM is the only heat exchanger material proven to be 100% fish and coral safe in saltwater systems.
  • Quiet, internal, spring mounted hermetic motor/compressor provides years of reliable service.
  • Low profile and compact design allows for easy placement in tight places.

Applications:

  • Living Exhibits
  • Research
  • Lobster and Seafood Holding tanks
  • Hydroponics
  • Home Aquariums
  • Cold plunge tubs
  • Animal hydrotherapy

System Requirements:

  • Cyclone drop in chillers require that the coil always be completely immersed in water with adequate water flow.
  • Observe min/max flow rates critical to chiller operation in ‘Specifications’ table
  • Chiller unit must not be placed in a confined space, as restricted air flow will limit the efficiency and lifespan. Do not restrict airflow by placing unit in a cabinet or closet.
  • A Cold Water Cap Tube (CWCT) is required for desired water temps between 50-65F on available models. Standard units operate in the range of 65-85 F. Call to order.

    Use the tables below to determine the appropriate Cyclone Chiller model for your application.

    Please note that the tables make the following assumptions;

    • Calculations based on a closed recirculating system with chiller running full time.
    • Calculations based on a simple system with one pump, 3x per hour water turnover rate, and fluorescent lighting.
    • Do not take into account, multiple pumps, protein skimmers, high intensity lighting, or other such variables.

    *Add “CWCT” (cold water cap tube) to model # for desired water temps between 50-65F on available models.

    Standard

    • Ideal for tropical aquariums and warm water exhibits, or research applications.
    • Capillary tube size allows a fixed amount of refrigerant to enter the titanium coil of the heat exchanger.
    • Amount of refrigerant does not need to change since the water temperature is being maintained at a constant.

    ‘CWCT’ (Cold Water Cap Tube)

    • Allows for a lower, but more limited temperature range.
    • Ideal for bait fish holding, temperate fish exhibits, and hydroponics.
    • Capillary tube size allows a fixed amount of refrigerant to enter the titanium coil of the heat exchanger.
    • Amount of refrigerant does not need to change since the water temperature is being maintained at a constant.
    Option Desired Water Temperature (ºF) Desired Water Temperature (ºC) CY-3 CY-4 CY-5 CY-6
    Standard 65-80 °F 18-27ºC
    CWCT 50-65ºF 10-18ºC
