Heater element for Tunze Temp Controller?

[tonyespinoza]

I'm planning to run the Tunze Temp Controller on a couple of my tanks.

I found the Aqua Medic "Bio Therm" Titanium Heater Elements and like the idea of them because they are significantly shorter than most stand alone heaters (Ebo Jager).

Any recommendations?

I was thinking of running three 250W elements off of one Tunze Temp Controllers. The other option would be to go with a 1000W element or two.

My water drops down to 74 degrees at night in the summer and will go lower in the winter (Norther California). I think I'll be aiming for a constant temp around 79.

tonyespinoza,

The switching power of the 110v 60hz 7028/3_A is 900 watts so keep this in mind with your load.
For those on 220-240 volt can use up to 1800 watt. Product part#7028/3

Cheers
Graeme

ah, so if i needed to go above 900W, i'd need multiple controllers.

thanks for the info.
