Upgrade: you can use 2 Peltier pads, one on top of the other, one with 12v and the other with 6v, the 12v pad will cool the hot side of the 6v pads and thus increase the cooling capacity
@@malhaar5880actually it's applicable and it's called cascading, it won't be efficient as a single module but it helps in cooling down more watts of energy. Help me if I'm wrong
bro i cannot find 200mmx100mm alumunium heat sink anywhere. should i use 2 100mm alumunium heat sinks? but how should i attach them together???? i have some white silicon thermal compound which is used for LEDs.
Yes you can use 2 100mm heat sinks and attach them using nuts & bolts and two small pieces of 4mm acrylic sheet from the sides. You can also use a 12 inch x 100mm (minimum) heat sink. The cooling procedure will work better if you use a larger heat sink. You can also search the markets where electronic products and LED lights are sold.
Great video very detailed on how to build. Why did you a a heat sink on top of the water tank? I am talking about the opposite side of the peptide cell of the tank.
Hello, thank you so much for sharing this. I have a question, I have a 200 liter tank and I want the water to be between 15-17 degrees. How would I need to modify your current system to achieve this? Thank you so much 😊
At 7:26 you have set the P0 to Cool function, at 7:45 you have set the temperature to 25 degree and the machine starts its function. It shuts down when it reaches 25 degree. In which function do we need to set the trigger temperature to switch it ON again?
Hello Bro, thank you so much for the video. I have gone through the description and I am having a 120 litre tank. For this if I just increase and stack 2 or 3 peltiers together will that be enough ? or I need to increase the heat sink and the fans as well?. Kindly let me know. Thanks 🙏
Yes, you’ll need a much larger heatsink and more cooling fans in order to maximize the cooling of the hot side of Peltier modules. The cooler the hot side of the Peltier is kept, the better the device will be able to cool the aquarium water. Additionally, you’ll need a thermostat capable of handling the Load of your Peltiers, cooling fans, etc. Thanks.
I am having 12 Liter nano tank and my room temperature is 29-30 approx. Can I use one peltier and the item mentioned in description to reduce my tank temperature to 25 degree celsius?
Super Idea. Brother when u make it for a 20 gallon tank u have mentioned to use a 12 V 20 Amp SMPS. So when we put both the peltier modules together it should be connected to 20 Amp output or when both the peltier module and both the cpu fans to be wired in parallel together and then hooked on to tge 20 Amp output ?
Yes, first connect all positive wires (usually red) of the Peltier modules and fans and connect to the positive terminal (+) of the SMPS, and negative wires (usually black) to the negative terminal (-). Thank you.
Yes, you will need to increase the size of the heat sink, the number of Peltier modules, etc. Please check the description for further information. Thanks.
Hi KM, Thanks for your video. I have made same stuff ordering same spares given in discription. However 12V DC pump is unable to pull off water rest all mechanism working fine. Can u guide/ help me on water pump part. Thanks
Hi! Cool project! Just one question here. The fan direction is right? In that way that you show in the video was exhausting hot air instead of cooling the hot side of peltier (and the heatsink) . What's better?
will the aluminium cooling block have any effect on the fishes and can the outlet of the cooler module created here be modified to fit inside the filter to help in much more effective cooling ?
Sir can we make canister filter and chiller together...inlet from aquarium will go to canister filter and outlet from canister filter to chiller inlet and then outlet from chiller to back in aquarium again,will I have to use 2 diffrent submersible pump with the same volt 800/L? And can we cut and extend the temperature sensor wire because I am planning to hide diy canister filter and chiller under the tank cabin
@@sunitmishra716 I would imagine the fan is blowing air out. So that the hot air is sucked away from the heatsink. Using convection to help in the process

Can we use a copper cooling block with the same heat sink ? I assume the time to cool will be faster . Also, what’s the total current draw of the unit ? Can this be plugged safely into a standard 6A socket ? Or need a 15A socket ?
Never mind got the answer. Max current draw will be around 10A for this setup, so 15A socket it is. As for the copper cooling block, while it is more efficient, copper is harmful for fish and shrimp

Dada tomar kaj sotti ashadharon . I have two queries :- 1. What is the total power / wattage of the system? 2. Can this be also used as heater by the adjusting the temperature controller?

Hi, I have used 2 peltier modules and 2 12v high rpm fans for better cooling and one water pump but the thermostat temperature keeps fluctuating for the set temperature and the device keeps turning on and off, is the problem with thermostat or something else??
Hey mate, i have x2 peltier modules (288watts each) that i want to interlink, that is one module feed the second giving a total of 576 watts plus pump and 2 fans. What thermostat controller do i need?
The cooling block I used is made of high-quality aluminum alloy, so there will be no problem in a freshwater aquarium, but do not use it in a saltwater tank.
Hi, thank you for the tutorial but it’s not working for me, I’ve got a 12 cm block with 2 pettier cells 12V 6A serial conected, mini pump with a tap on the outlet to reduce even more the volum and the water doesn’t flow cooler than the tank, big heat sink with big fan on the hot side and nothing. Tested with my fingers and the cold side works fine but the water doesn’t goes out colder. Any idea why is not working? All connections as your video…

Olá sou aqui do brasil e gostei muito do seu projeto e vou fazer com 3 pastilhas porem tenho uma dúvida o dissipador para 3 pastilhas tem que ter 300mm X 300mm? Pois estou com dificuldade de encontrar com esse tamanho o maior que eu encontrei foi 104mm X 300mm. Posso emendar?
Great Job! Do you know which is the lower temperature that this device could reach? I'm trying to do something similar for my cats' fountain, so they can drink fresh water in summer, but my aluminium cooler is very small in comparison. Regards!
You can use the device in a salt water tank if you use a titanium water block and a pump that can operate in salt water. The process of making the chiller is the same.
The Peltier module will not run continuously, it will turn off after reaching the target temperature, as it is controlled by a temperature controller or thermostat. Therefore, it will not get damaged and hence it does not need to be replaced frequently. Just use a large heatsink and cooling fan on the hot side of the Peltier and keep it as cool as possible.
Digital Thermostat you used has 20A power out like most thermostats. Peltier you used needs 6A. by that logic I can't use the thermostat, with more than 3 peltier connected to, right? Not an engineer so no idea, honestly figuring it out as I go. Thanks!
Yes you are right, for larger tanks, where multiple Peltier modules are required, an AC thermostat should be used. I'll make another video on this, where I'll show the connections and all. thank you.
