Teco Tecoponics HY-500 Hydroponic Chiller

For standard systems & aquariums up to 120 gallons

The new Hydroponics chiller line is the next generation of TECO chillers–used by consumers and professionals for over two decades. New changes include an increase in cooling efficiency and improved usability, functionality, and durability.

EFFICIENT COOLING TECHNOLOGY

Internationally-recognized high-end compressors and titanium coaxial heat exchangers provide high performance, low energy consumption, and low noise levels.

BUILT-IN HEATER

The Hydroponics HY-500 comes standard with a heater built into the unit (previously, had to be purchased and installed separately). The built-in heater provides better control over water temperatures and can be operated through the digital thermostat.

DIGITAL THERMOSTAT

Intuitive controller with accurate temperature detection from 60.8°F to 71.6°F. Closed loop temperature control system with an extremely tight differential of 1°C. Displays in °F or °C, and audible alarms for certain situations.

EFFICIENT DESIGN

A solid and durable structure designed to guarantee near perfect protection against corrosion. Rotatable in-set water connections, rotatable exhaust conveyor, and smaller form-factor helps facilitate placement of chiller in confined spaces.

COOLING PERFORMANCE

The ability of the HY-500 to pull down temperatures in a 86°F room:

Aquarium Size	Temp. Attainable	Heating Load	Net Pull-Down	C.O.P.*
40 gallons	77°Ffrom 86°F	1.89 Watts/gal	9°F cooler	2.0

* Coefficient of Performance (COP) – a numerical value that represents cooling performance from a baseline room temperature of 86°F and a typical heat source (aka. Heating Load)
