Introduction In conjunction with the optionally available control unit iFerm Nano Terminal you can operate iFerm Nano Tank centrally (only the 24 V AC, 50/60 Hz + data bus version). iFerm Nano Terminal can access up to 30 controllers of the... -
Page 7: Safety Notices
All stated positions (left, right, front, back, top, bottom etc.) relate to an observer looking at the display of iFerm Nano Tank from the front. The connecting cable is therefore at the bottom, the display in front. - Page 8 Extreme temperatures caused by heat build-ups, frost, UV light, direct sunlight etc. can cause irreparable damage. Always maintain the specified ambient temperatures, see “8.1 Technical data” on page 27. iFerm Nano Tank is protected against water jets (IP65). However, avoid intensive contact with liquids (e.g. high- pressure cleaners).

Page 9: Product Overview En
Product overview Since fermentation yeasts react sensitively to frequent temperature changes, iFerm Nano Tank intervenes in fermentation processes even before the target temperature is reached and starts the cooling. Brief cooling pulses gently slow down the temperature rise, and exceeding of the target temperature is prevented by more intensive cooling. -
