Titan Heat Pumps by Aqua Logic are
designed for a wide range of applications. If you are a public
aquarium, aquaculture facility, government or university research
institution or hydroponics operation we have a unit that will meet
your needs.
Aqua Logic Titan Heat Pumps offers the same reliability as our
chillers but with the added ability to heat your water as well. One
unit handles both the heating and cooling functions automatically in
both freshwater and saltwater applications. A properly sized and
installed heat pump will provide stable, thermostatically controlled
water temperature.
In the cooling mode, the heat pump works as a chiller, cooling water
to the temperature you select. In the heating mode, the heat pump
works with the liquid refrigerant (Freon) flow in reverse. Freon
absorbs heat from the air as it moves thru the condenser. As it heats,
the Freon becomes a gas, which is then compressed by the compressor.
The heat carried by the Freon is then released into the titanium heat
exchanger and transferred into the circulated water.
These heat pumps feature an insulated titanium heat exchanger and a
commercial TRANE condensing unit all mounted on a stainless steel
frame which assures you of equipment reliability and longevity.
All units are suitable for outdoor installation. Heat Pumps up to 5hp
have a special ”Spine Fin” condenser coil which has proven to have
superior heat transfer performance and capacity over traditional
radially finned heat exchangers. This style condenser also has a much
greater resistance to corrosion in harsh environments such as moist
salty air or chemically tainted rainwater.
All units feature a dual stage digital temperature controller enclosed
in a NEMA4X enclosure with easy 3 push button programming and will
maintain water temperatures in the range from 40o-85oF
. The controller can display in either oF or oC
and will maintain the water within 1 degree of the set point. Flow
switches are installed to shut down the chiller should water flow to
the heat exchanger stop preventing freeze up and possible cracking of
the outer shell.

Applications:
Titan Heat Pumps are designed to be used
in a wide variety of both saltwater and freshwater applications.
Public aquariums use them to maintain stable water temperatures in
exhibits and quarantine holding. Government hatcheries and commercial
Aquaculture operations use our heat pumps to hold brood stock at the
optimum temperature for spawning conditioning. Research facilities
have long depended on Aqua Logic Heat Pumps because of their
reliability and precision in maintaining a wide range of temperatures
for their experiments. In Hydroponics facilities our heat pumps
maintain optimum temperatures for the nutrient solutions to minimize
root dieses and maximize growth.

Guidelines:
When you install your heat pump properly
you will get many years of dependable service. These heat pumps can be
mounted outdoors. One of the most important things to keep in mind
when you position your heat pump is air flow. Fresh air flow should
never be restricted to the condenser and the air discharged must not
be restricted when it leaves the unit. As air passes thru condenser,
over time dirt and dust may accumulate so it should be placed where
you have easy access to it for periodic cleaning. The unit should not
be placed in a location where snows melt or rain water runoff from a
roof falls directly on the unit.
If
located outdoors and the heat pump will be operating in the COOLING
mode when ambient air temperatures will fall below 55oF,
then low ambient air controls must be installed on the condensing
unit. This will allow the unit to operate in air temperatures down
to 0oF in the cooling mode only. However with heat pumps
the heating efficiency (heating mode) starts to decrease with air
temps below 45oF, and it is recommended that you switch
to electric or gas heat. If air temperatures will be lower then
this, consult factory. Precautions must also be taken to prevent
exposed outdoor water lines and heat exchanger from freezing should
water flow stop to the unit. If not in use during freezing
conditions all outdoor plumbing and the heat exchanger should be
drained of water.
When in the heating mode cool air is discharged from the condenser and
condensation may start dripping so it is recommended that the units be
placed in a “drip pan” to prevent damage to the surface it is located
on if necessary. When exposed to colder air temperatures ice may even
form on the condenser in which case the unit will automatically go
into defrost mode based on a preset time interval.
Titan Heat Pumps require a pump to move water thru the heat exchanger
at all times. Correct water flow rates are critical for chillers to
operate properly. Refer to the flow rate and pump selection chart to
select the best pump for your Heat Pump. Always use an external pump
as submersible pumps add heat to the water.

Sizing:
Many factors will have an influence when
determining the size heat pump required for a particular application.
While standard Btu calculations will give you a good starting point
for sizing, many environmental and system design parameters must be
considered. While sizing charts can be helpful, one chart DOES NOT
work for all heat pump installations.
Sizing charts for marine reef tanks (under 1500 gallons) are based on
“typical” setups using the common life support equipment (LSS), such
as pumps, filters, and lighting. However, some tanks have more pumps
or higher wattage lighting then what might be considered “normal”.
This must be considered when looking at a sizing chart. The sizing
chart we provide for reef aquariums is based on many years of
experience and a typical tank setup.
The sizing charts for aquaculture system, large public aquarium tanks
and other fish holding systems are different then that of the marine
reef tank. These systems may contain just one large tank or multiple
tanks, located indoors in a controlled environment or outdoors in
direct sunlight, and every situation in-between. These systems may
require less hp per gallon than reef aquariums. Adding insulation and
thermal pane viewing windows will decrease the amount hp per gallon
required.
For hydroponics applications nutrient solutions need to be maintained
at an optimum. Although the volumes may seen small it is spread out
over a large area and there is a tremendous amount of heat input from
either grow lights or natural sunlight. This heat input is greatest
when plants are young but as they grow and start shading their growing
trays the heat input decreases. Due to the numerous variety of set ups
these systems can be difficult to size.
We provide a questionnaire that you can fill out and return to us for
help in sizing a chiller for your particular application. The more
information you provide the better.
As always we have a staff of technicians that are ready to help answer
any technical questions you may have.
