Question on using my Ac with a 220v chiller

[Reeftoker]

Hey guys I have just upgraded to a 3/4 220v how can I hook my AC up to run this one.

If the current draw on the chiller is high, I would recommend the DC4HD

It wont work on a 220 volts its ment for 110volts

Ah - didn't catch that part...

You would have to build a relay circuit were the coil voltage for the relay is 120 volts. This way you then could use either a x-10 or plug it into a DC4/8 device which would power the relay's coil. You would have 220v on the line side (power coming into the relay) then your chiller wired to the normally open side of the relay (load side). When the AC tells the chiller to turn on via the x-10, DC4/8 then the relay would make (close) and your chiller would turn on. There is another way, but you would have to again build a relay circuit and cut into the internal wiring of the chiller to access the low voltage control circuits of the chiller itself.

I use a 220v appliance module. Works great.
