To troubleshoot a VEVOR S2TL-3500 aquarium chiller that is not reaching the desired temperature of 36 degrees, follow these steps:
1. Check Refrigerant Level: Low refrigerant or leakage can reduce cooling capacity. Contact a certified technician to check and refill the refrigerant.
2. Improve Heat Dissipation: - Ensure good ventilation around the unit. - Keep at least 30 cm clearance at the back and both sides, and 60 cm at the front. - Remove any dust accumulation on the air inlet and radiator fins.
3. Check for Blockages: - Make sure water flow is not blocked. - Inspect tubing for kinks or tangles.
4. Water Volume: - If ambient temperature is high and target water temperature is low (36°F or 2.2°C), reduce the water volume to improve performance.
5. Check Temperature Sensor: - If the digital display shows “E1”, the temperature sensor may be faulty or installed incorrectly. Check its placement or replace if needed.
6. Calibrate Water Temperature: - Press and hold “SET” for 10 seconds to enter the temperature error adjustment mode. - Adjust the displayed value using ▲ or ▼ to match the actual water temperature. - Stop adjusting for 10 seconds to save.
7. Check for High Internal Pressure: - This could be caused by high air and water temperature. Improve ventilation or change the capacitor or heat protector if needed.
Do not attempt repairs yourself. If the issue persists, contact a certified technician.

PERFROMANCE CURVES Temperature ℉ Work time S2TL-3500 (Min=Minute, H=Hour) NOTES: 1.Refrigerating effect will be impacted by ambient temperature, water circulation flow rate, installation position, lighting system, surrounding heat sources, room ventilation, aquarium/reservoir structure, etc. To get the best use of this machine, please strictly follow this instruction manual.
Product Dimension MODEL L(mm) W(mm) H(mm) CL-600 Ⅳ. INSTALLATION The installation of the chiller should comply with the safety precautions and warnings. The unit must be used with a circulating system and a filtering system. Installation method: Aquarium/tank -- filtering system/filter -- water pump -- inlet of chiller -- outlet of chiller -- aquarium/tank.
1.The product has two fittings on one side for tubing connections, with the bottom one for inlet and the top for outlet. Connections of the aquarium/tank and water pump can be made with either soft or hard tubing (hard tubing is better for high water flow). For the tubing diameter please refer to the diameter of the connector supplied.
