Product information

Temperature control
Two important factors affect the water temperature in the aquarium: firstly the room temperature and secondly direct sunlight. If the room temperature in summer increases significantly, it is important to check the temperature in the aquarium regularly. Aim for 24-26 °C. Temperatures above 30 °C are a problem and can cause substantial damage to fish and plants. And never expose an aquarium to direct sunlight. The higher the temperature, the lower the oxygen content.

Easy to install
The bracket of the cooling fan is placed onto the aquarium rim (up to max. 2.4 cm thickness) and fixed with clamp screws.

Cools by evaporation
The JBL PROTEMP Coolers for freshwater and marine aquariums cool between 2-4 °C with the help of cross-flow fans. The air flow helps the warm water to evaporate at the water surface and thus generates evaporative cooling. This is comparable to the evaporation cooling effect when wet skin is exposed to the wind.

Safety
The water cooler has a safety cover grid and is operated with an extra-low voltage of 12 V.

FAQ
Is rattling normal during operation?

The cross-flow fan provides an audible air flow that is uniform and must not rattle or clatter. However, if such a problem does occur, it could be an indication of damage from a fall or strong impacts on the enclosure wall. Check that the cross-flow fan is correctly mounted or if the housing is incorrectly assembled. If these are not the causes your ProTemp Cooler must be returned to the factory for inspection and repair by the JBL customer service.

How does the noise level of the new PROTEMP COOLER compare to the other coolers?

A lot of commercially available products, including our predecessor range, have two to four axial fans (depending on the model). The appearance is reminiscent of a PC fan. The design of the cross-flow fans used in the JBL PROTEMP COOLERS makes them run more smoothly and gives them a quieter air flow. Its one axis drive ensures a further reduction in noise. In models using similar technology, the bearing is typically based on sintered bushes. Thanks to a high-quality ball bearing, a dedicated bearing to give additional damping, plus a reworked bearing in the cross-flow fan wheel, the new PROTEMP COOLERS guarantee you greater stability. Rattling and squeaking are now a thing of the past.

Can I operate two coolers with one ProTemp CoolControl?

The ProTemp CoolControl is connected between the power supply and the ProTemp Cooler. It is therefore not possible to connect two coolers to one controller. Each Cooler needs its own controller.

Can the CoolControl also regulate the new ProTemp Cooler x200 and x300 (generation 2)?

Yes, the CoolControl of the predecessor range can also regulate the new ProTemp Cooler x200 and x300 (generation 2) aquarium coolers.

The cooler does not cool down the aquarium

JBL ProTemp Coolers cool the water temperature by 2-4 °C in high ambient temperatures. To achieve this with this product, it’s important the maximum recommended aquarium volume is adhered to. Please note that the cooling effect only occurs when the cooler is in operation and that the system needs to have been running continuously for a few hours beforehand. The air flow needs to be directed across the entire width of the aquarium and be at a 45° angle to the water surface. If only a part of the water surface is ventilated or the angle is set to 90°, the desired effect will be lost or greatly reduced. The housing can be rotated 360°.

A must have product if you want to beat the heat and avoid algae bloom. You can drop your tanks temperature easily. I highly recommend you to buy the cool control too, it makes your life so much easier.

Ich habe den JBL PROTEMP Cooler am Aufzuchtbecken im Einsatz, er ist ein feiner Helfer während der heissen Sommerzeit.

Er ist Stromsparend und Kühlt mein Aquarium in den heissen Sommertagen 3-4 Grad runter. Der Lüfter ist sehr ruhig und lässt sich Kinderleicht anbringen.

Ich finde ihn Top, nur schade das es den Kühler nicht für Becken ab 1000 Liter gibt.

Ich würde wen ich könnte dem produkt eine 3,5 geben aufgrund dessen das man es nicht benutzen kann wen das aquarium zu hoch ist weil das gerät wo man die temperatur einstellt direkt hinterm aquarium hängt wo man eben nicht dran kommt und man kann es nicht an der hinter scheibe montieren wen es "vernünftig" an der wand steht weil es in der tiefe zu lang ist das ist sehr schade weil es sonst vom technischen her top ist ;/

Byl jsem skeptický když jsem držel tento výrobek v ruce, ale po namontování jsem se nestačil divit. Za 1 hodinu mi tento ventilátor ochladil vodu o 2 stupně (35l akvárium). jediné mínus tohoto výrobku je vetší hluk při chlazení, ale klady převyšují tento jediný záporný bod. všem doporučuji vyzkoušet!!
