Operating instructions

Ss Brewtech Jacketed Tank Kit is an advanced temperature control system for fermentation tanks, enabling precise temperature management for various brewing processes. Its key capabilities include:

  • Accurate Temperature Control: The system precisely maintains the desired fermentation temperature by circulating chilled glycol through the tank's jacket, ensuring consistent and optimal fermentation conditions.

  • Closed-Loop Operation: It operates as a closed-loop system, ensuring efficient and continuous circulation of glycol, maximizing cooling performance and minimizing energy consumption.

  • Easy Installation and Maintenance: The kit includes all necessary components for easy installation and maintenance, such as the jacketed tank, glycol chiller, pump, and associated fittings, making it user-friendly even for beginners.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The basic principle of the Fermentation Temperature Stabilization System (FTSs) is to pump chilled
glycol through the jacket of your vessel when the temperature of your wort is greater than the controller
set-point.
The FTSs is intended to be a low pressure closed loop system. Glycol pumped from the glycol chiller
to the fermenter is then returned to the glycol chiller to be used again.

Next submerge the pump(s) in the glycol solution, and top off the reservoir to about the 90% full
level, making sure the evaporator coil is sufciently submerged. This will allow glycol to ow through
each fermenter’s jacket without risking the chance of owing back to the reservoir and overowing the
reservoir. Use the reservoir’s sight glass as an indicator for glycol level. Reinstall the reservoir lid, and
route the pump’s lead wire(s) through the notch when the evaporator coil enters the reservoir.

Supply Line- Extend a length of silicone tubing between the glycol chiller’s outlet barb and the hose
barb on the check valve at the tank (Fig. A). Be sure to install the tubing to the barb that corresponds to
the pump’s outlet. Secure each end of the tubing to the barbs using hose clamps.
Return Line- Extend a length of silicone tubing between the hose barb on the tank’s jacket outlet
(Fig. B) and the glycol chiller’s return barb. Secure each end of the tubing using hose clamps.
Note: If additional tubing is required to span the distance between the chiller and fermenter, you can
purchase more at www.ssbrewtech.com or pick some up at your local hardware store.
