User Manual

If “CYCLIC” is chosen from the DISPLAY SET menu, multiple values can be rotated 

through the front display.

The first line will flash. Use 

 and 

 

to navigate to other lines. Press 

 to enable 

or disable each value. This will remove the asterisk, thereby hiding that line from 
being shown on the main screen:

    *LIQ SET

 :  (Field varies) Show current active sensor and user set-point

    *AMB TEMP

 :  Show ambient air temperature

      LIQ TEMP

 :  Hide liquid temperature

    *EXT TEMP

 :  Show external sensor temperature (if connected)

      FAN

 :  Hide condenser fan RPM

      PUMP

 :  Hide pump impeller RPM

    *FLOW 

:  Show liquid flow rate through the unit

Press 

 to return to the previous menu, or press 

 

to exit DISPLAY SET.

We hope your Koolance system will provide you with years of reliable cooling 
performance. To help avoid unnecessary RMA issues, we have prepared this list 
of possible operational problems, and their most common solutions.

1. After filling the reservoir with coolant and turning on the system, there are no 
visible signs of liquid movement...

Check the flow meter value (see “DISPLAY SET”). If there is no detected flow 
immediately after filling the reservoir, or the flow rate is very low or periodic, 
this usually indicates the pump has not finished priming. Open the fill port on 
top of the chiller and temporarily set the pump speed to 10 (see “PUMP SET”) 
to help push out the air.

If possible while the pump is running, gently tilt your cold plates or other 
components connected to the chiller in various directions to assist with 
bleeding air from the cooling loop. If it becomes necessary to tilt the chiller to 
assist with priming, close the fill port and power-off the unit before doing so.

3. The temperature alarm sounds and I’m not sure why...

The offending temperature sensor and value will flash in the front display 
whenever an alarm sounds. Check that your currently selected temperature 
sensor and alarm are configured as desired (see “TEMP SET” and “ALARM 
SET”). If you are certain the cooling system is working properly otherwise, try 
resetting all system settings by holding 

 + 

 for 3 seconds.

4. My system appears to be leaking fluid or water...

Check that the fittings on the rear inlet/outlet and drain plug are securely tight-
ened (by hand, not with tools). They are parallel type threads, so no plumber’s 
tape or putty should be used or this can interfere with proper sealing.

If during operation the outsides of your tubing or cold plates is wet, this can  
indicate condensation. The chiller temperature setting should not be lower than 
the ambient room air temperature. (See “TEMP SET” for recommendations.)

5. The front display is locked up or not responding.

Reset all system settings by holding 

 + 

 for 3 seconds. After a reset, all con-

figuration settings (temperature, alarm, fans, etc.) must be updated again.
