FS: Deltec Eco-Cooler EC420-2 24 Volt
$500 obo
Pick-up only - in Calabasas or Encino

(Unit pictured is stock Deltec photo)
Unit is in very good condition, with brand new unused set of many replacement parts included (new extra fans, media).
Per the Deltec site, this unit (the large) was 1300 british pounds new, which is $2,217 USD, plus shipping/tax. It provides the equivalent of 2000w of cooling for 88w. Worked on a apprx 500g system (225g tank with 220g outdoor - in the valley - sump) with no problems. I converted from MH to LED, and it has been unused and in storage since. Just before storing the EcoChiller, I obtained from Deltec four brand new fans, and new internal mesh media, all new and never used (unused new parts alone are worth $500+), that will be included.
The EcoChiller evaporates water to cool the system. So you need auto top off, and this chiller should either be outdoors or vented outdoors. Energy efficient, unlike traditional high amp high electrical use chillers. Very low energy consumption vs a 1/2 or 1 hp chiller. Perfect for those with high electricity rates in SoCal.

And Deltec's description of the EcoChiller:
The ECO cooler is environmentally friendly and economical and can be used for both salt and fresh water aquariums.
The principle of the ECO cooler borrows its technology from water cooling towers used in industrial applications. Water from the aquarium is forced to evaporate which draws latent heat from the water thus cooling it down.
Eco coolers are incredibly cheap to run and are much quieter than a refrigerant cooler.
For example - to achieve 950 watts of cooling.
Refrigerant - 570 watts of electricity.
Eco- cooler - 44 watts of electricity.
It is also possible to use the ECO cooler in conjunction with a refrigerant cooler, therefore reducing the size of the electricity bill substantially and being secure in the knowledge that even on the very hottest days of summer that your system will stay cool.
*Please Note: These chillers require a separate controller; the controller displayed in the picture is not available in the United States.
Operation:
Water is gravity or pump fed to a rotating spray bar and trickles through a special open mesh then falls by gravity and is cooled as the fans switch on or off evaporating the water from the large surface area provided by the mesh. The cooled water exits the unit via a 40mm pipe positioned at the bottom of the unit and must gravity feed back into the aquarium system. The hot air that is driven off by the fans is directed away via an exhaust that is built into the cooler to one side.
