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.
