Power Center
Assemble the Power Center (PC) drawer in the cabinet by laying the drawer on the sliders and push into
position. There are 2 catches on the underside of the drawer that "click" when the drawer is attached
properly to the sliders. To remove the drawer, release the 2 catches on the underside of the drawer and
pull the drawer off of the sliders.
The PC includes 3 individual power strips, each of which can be removed for service without affecting the
functionality of the others. Protected by a resettable thermal circuit breaker which will only neutralize the
specific strip. The left and right strips are identical and provide 5 individually switched outlets on each that
are protected by a resettable thermal circuit breaker which will only neutralize the specific strip. The center
strip is for the LED lighting. The main switch on the front panel shuts down the complete strip.
Connect the main power cable to the inlet socket of the left strip and direct the cable out of left slot on the
back of the drawer. Ensure that all of the switches on the front panel are in the off position. Do not connect
the main power cable to the power until the aquarium and sump are filled with water.
To connect equipment to the PC:
IMPORTANT: Before opening the PC ensure that your hands are dry and that there is no water dripping down
the front glass of the aquarium.
1. Make sure that the lid is in the closed position (pulled to the front of the drawer) and that the drawer
is in its normal operating position. All equipment is attached from the rear of the drawer.
2. Place plugs into the back section of the drawer with the cables running through one of the slots.
3. Open the drawer as far as it will go and slide the lid backwards.
4. Reach into the back of the draw and gently pull the plugs forward.
5. Insert each plug into its designated outlet.
6. Close the lid (pulled to the front of the drawer) and return the draw to its normal operating position.
7. Make sure that all of the cables at the back of the drawer are free to move as the drawer is opened
and closed.
Heaters, Chillers and other accessories
Heaters and Chillers are not provided as a standard part of the MAX
made for their installation.
Dedicated power outlets are provided for a heater, chiller and 2 accessories in the Power center.
Chiller: The left hand compartment under the power center has been designed to house a chiller. A gap has
been provided between the base board and door and the rear has been left open to allow for proper airflow
for the chiller to run without overheating. The inlet and outlet pipes of the chiller should pass through the cut
out at the top rear left corner of dividing wall between the sump and chiller compartments.
S-400: Connect the inlet pipe of the chiller to the chiller outlet on the main pump manifold. Place the return
pipe from the chiller into the downpipe chamber of the sump with the return pipe ending under the water.
Once the complete system is operational set the chiller flow valve for a flow of approximately 2000 l/h
(500gph).
S-500: Connect the inlet pipe of the chiller to the chiller outlet on the main pump manifold. Connect the
outlet of the chiller to the inlet of the chiller return pipe that is attached to the rear wall of the sump
compartment. Add an extra piece of flexible pipe from the outlet of the chiller return pipe to the downpipe
chamber of the sump with the flexible pipe ending under the water. Once the complete system is
operational set the chiller flow valve for a flow of approximately 2000 l/h (500gph).
Heaters and other accessories (such as a calcium reactor) can be placed in the accessory compartment
(left side) of the sump. Water to feed accessories can be taken by replacing the ¾" plug in the main pump
manifold with a suitable hose barb.
S-650: Place a 2400 l/h (600gph) feeding pump for the chiller in the accessory compartment (left side) of
the sump and connect with flexible piping to the inlet of the chiller. Connect the outlet of the chiller to the
inlet of the chiller return pipe that is attached to the rear wall of the sump compartment. Add an extra piece
