Titan 150, 500, 1500, 2000
Operation Manual GB
With the purchase of an AB Aqua Medic cooling unit you have selected a top quality product. It has
been specifically designed for the cooling of closed water cycles like fresh and sea water aquaria.
The TITAN coolers are supplied with heat exchanger made from sea water proof Titanium steel.
These heat exchangers are corrosion-resistant and free of contaminations. The cooling units can be
used in fresh and sea water as well as in various chemicals.
The coolers have a one-phase cooling system containing the cooling medium R 134 a (FCKW-free).
They work with capillary injection as control system.

1. Product description
The AB Aqua Medic cooling units TITAN 150 500 1500 and 2000 are supplied with:
- a temperature computer incl. digital display
- connections for water in- and outlet
- main switch and fuse to be changed from outside (not valid for Titan 2000)
- solid cover made of plastic and metal
2. Set-up and installation
1. The cooling unit must be set up at a well-ventilated place. The complete heat taken
out of the water by the unit and the waste heat of the unit itself are emitted at the unit into
the air. A build-up of heat directly at the cooling unit leads to a heavily reduced cooling
power output. Therefore a sufficient ventilation is essential. The exhaust air must be able to
escape from the back (where the water connections are placed).
The environmental temperature should not exceed 35° C.
2. The cooling unit has to be connected at the connecting pieces to a closed water cycle. It is
recommended to place the unit below the water surface. In case of leakage of the angled
connecting piece push union nut back and tighten the internal screw connection again firmly.
3. Switch the water flow on. It is important that the water flows continuously through
the cooler. Because the temperature-sensor is placed inside the unit the heat exchanger
cannot freeze in case of a failure of water supply.
The fow rates are:
Titan 150: minimum 200 maximum 1 500 litres/h
Titan 500: minimum 500 maximum 2 000 litres/h
Titan 1500: minimum 800 maximum 2 500 litres/h
Titan 2000: minimum 2 000 maximum 4 000 litres/h
4. Before starting the cooler should stand up straight for at least 1 hour. Connect it to 230 V
power source and switch the unit on (plug in the mains and switch on). Now the actual
water temperature is shown on the display. Because the thermo sensor is placed in the water
inlet always a temperature which corresponds to the temperature in the tank is shown.
Attention: Cooling unit may not be used under pressure!
Maximum height below water level: 150 cm
3. Temperature control
The cooling units of the TITAN series are supplied with a digital temperature controller.
Programming: The display shows the actual temperature of the water.
Check the set point: Press the „SET“ button (shortly). Now the set point is shown in the display
and a LED (top left) flashes. After some seconds the unit switches back to the actual temperature.
Adjustment of the set point: Press the „SET“-button for approx. 5 sec. Now the set value is
displayed and flashes. The set value can now be changed in steps of 1°C using the + and -
buttons. By pressing the “SET” button again the set point is saved.
The status of the cooler (compressor on or off) is indicated on the small LED in the display
(between the second and third digit of the display).

5. Maintenance
The cooler has the same requirements with respect to maintenance like conventional cooling
units (refrigerators etc.). Maintenance and/or repairs should be done exclusively either by a
service engineer or by the manufacturer. Clean the air-cooled condenser regularly.
We recommend to flush the heat exchanger thoroughly once a year to remove any muddy
parts.
