FTSs Pro Modular Temperature Controller

INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW
The FTSs Pro Modular Temperature Controller works in conjunction with a pressurized glycol system to
provide temperature control over the contents of your vessel. It functions by using a temperature sensor
to read the present value (PV) of your vessel, and triggering an output based on the set value (SV) in
order to match PV with SV. When cooling is called for, the solenoid valve will open to allow the ow of
glycol through your vessel’s cooling jackets or coils until the set value is achieved.

SETUP
POWERING THE FTSs PRO
The FTSs Pro Modular Temperature Controller comes with a lead marked “110~240VAC-in”. The
three wires in this cable correspond to hot (brown wire), neutral (blue wire), and ground (green/yellow
wire). A plug is purposely omitted from the cable to accommodate various methods used for supplying
110~240VAC to the unit. If you are installing a plug, BE SURE that a GFCI breaker/receptacle is
installed.

SENSOR INSTALLATION
The FTSs Pro Modular Temperature Controller comes with a lead marked “Sensor”. The two wires in
this cable (red and black) will connect to your temperature sensor. If you are using an Ss Brewtech
vessel, your tank comes equipped with a PT100 platinum resistance thermometer. The red and black
wires will connect to terminals 1 and 2 on the thermometer’s plug. The orientation of the wires does not
matter, as long as they are connected to terminals 1 and 2.
SOLENOID INSTALLATION
The FTSs Pro Modular Temperature Controller comes with either a ½” (1-3.5 bbl Unitank) or ¾” (5 bbl
and larger Unitank) electric solenoid valve. Installation can be handled in a variety of ways based on
preference and setup. We recommend installation of a manual bypass piping/valve arrangement, as
well as piping/valve arrangement to clear the line of glycol in the event that service is needed.
