Reptile Thermostat with Dual Probes and Digital Temperature Control

The Temperature Controller: Precise Temperature Control for Your Needs

The Pymeter temperature controller is a versatile and user-friendly device that offers precise control over heating and cooling in a variety of applications. At its core, the controller functions as a heating/cooling controller, requiring the user to set both an "On-Temperature" and an "Off-Temperature" to manage the heating and cooling cycle.

In the heating mode, the controller will start heating when the temperature drops to the "On-Temperature" (1°N or 2°N) and will stop heating when the temperature reaches the "Off-Temperature" (1°F or 2°F). It is essential to ensure that the "On-Temperature" is set lower than the "Off-Temperature" to avoid any conflicts in the heating cycle.

Conversely, in the cooling mode, the controller will start cooling when the temperature rises to the "On-Temperature" (1°N or 2°N) and will stop cooling when the temperature drops to the "Off-Temperature" (1°F or 2°F). In this case, the "On-Temperature" must be set higher than the "Off-Temperature" to maintain the proper cooling cycle.

It's important to note that the "On-Temperature" (1°N or 2°N) represents the minimum temperature you want to allow, while the "Off-Temperature" (1°F or 2°F) represents the maximum temperature you want to allow in either the heating or cooling mode.

One of the key features of the Pymeter temperature controller is its accuracy. Each unit is calibrated before leaving the factory, ensuring precise temperature readings. Users are advised not to compare the controller's performance to common household thermostats, thermometers, or temperature guns, as the Pymeter is designed to provide a higher level of accuracy.

If there are any doubts about the controller's accuracy, users can easily calibrate it using an ice-water mixture (which has a temperature of 32°F when the ice is melting). This simple test will help users determine which device is the most accurate.

The Pymeter temperature controller also features several alarm settings that can be customized to suit the user's needs. The "AL" (low-temperature alarm) and "AH" (high-temperature alarm) settings can be used to trigger an audible alarm when the temperature falls below or rises above the set thresholds, respectively. Additionally, the "d7" (difference alarm) setting can be used to trigger an alarm when the temperature difference between the two sensors exceeds the set value.

If the user does not require the alarm function, they can simply leave the default values for "AL," "AH," and "d7" unchanged, as they are unlikely to trigger the alarm.

The Pymeter temperature controller offers a unique "two controllers in one unit" feature, with two individually controlled outlets that can be used for heating and cooling in separate zones or areas. This allows users to customize temperature settings for different parts of their setup, such as using two heat lamps or mats for two distinct zones or even controlling the temperature in two separate tanks.

Furthermore, the controller's "Power-On Delay" feature can protect the compressor in a refrigeration system from frequent on-off cycles, allowing for more efficient and reliable operation.

The Pymeter temperature controller is widely used in a variety of applications, including reptile terrariums, aquarium heaters and chillers, greenhouses, grow tents, garages, and more. Its versatility, accuracy, and advanced features make it a reliable choice for anyone seeking precise temperature control in their setup.
