POWERED STOCK TANK HEATERS
Cold Weather Colicing
Prevention.
Keep remote stock tanks
from freezing solid with our #SJH series water heaters!
People have found that
using our battery powered heaters is the BEST deicing method
ever devised! Keep water
available to your live stock 24 hours a day. While the 12 volt
battery needs to be changed
out ONCE a day it sure beats chopping ice 3 or 4 times a day!
Compared to endless ice
chopping simply swapping out batteries once a day is relatively
easy!
(You can also use much bigger batteries
and go as long as 4 days. For more info read all info below)

NPT - bottom tapped)
For SMALLER stock tanks from 25 to 50 gallons
use our 300 Watt models. Recommended for temperatures between
32 and -0 degrees F.
For LARGER stock tanks (50 to 100 gallon) use
our 600 Watt models. Recommended for temperatures between 32
and -0 degrees F.
For LARGER stock tanks (75 to 150 gallons)
use TWO of our 600 Watt models.
Recommended for temperatures between 32 and -0 degrees F.
Use our 600 Watt models in VERY cold
weather -
Recommended for temperatures between 32 and -60 degrees F.
Use one 600 Watt heater for every 25 gallons in water volume.
Use our 300 Watt models in mildly cold weather when
it only freezes at night
ranchers may consider using our 300 watt models. This works
well when daytime
temperatures are above freezing but night-time temperatures
drop no lower than
-5 degrees F. for water volumes no larger than 25 gallons.
NOTE: Some tanks have a larger drain hole than 1". In
this case you
must buy a threaded reducer bushing at your
local plumbing supply store.

OPTIONAL FREEZE AUTOMATION-
Thermal-Q ® - Freeze Sensors
work great for all low voltage battery applications.
The Thermal -Q Freeze Sensor
Our handy Thermo-Q freeze sensor will automatically turn power
"ON" when the water temperature reaches 35 degrees
F. and will turn off the power when the
water temperature exceeds 50 F. degrees. This effectively keeps
water from freezing. The Thermo-Q unit can be used with any other
ANTI-FREEZING devices to save electricity and or prevent over
heating. Works great for all low voltage and battery powered
heaters. Works on 12, 24 ,36 and 48 volt systems.
(50 amp or 600 Watts maximum! If you
use multiple heaters you will need one Thermo-Q freeze sensor
per heater!!)
Characteristics:
At 35 degrees F. the Thermo-Q will turn "ON" all
types of heaters: Heat tape, heat lamps, stock tank heaters,
pond heaters, engine block heaters, etc.
Can also be used as a "Freeze Warning Device" by
connecting it to a car head lamp that is visible from your house.
The Thermo-Q can simply be used to light-up a lamp or alarm if
the temperature drops below 35 degrees F. alerting you.

Remember NEVER to heat your animals
water with a high voltage 110 Volt heaters as this practice regularly
kills an estimated 17,000
animals annually once the high voltage heater gets a crack in
the electrical insulation material!
NOTE: Only use Low Voltage
heaters like ours that run on battery poweror operate from a
low voltage power transformer like a battery charger!!
LOW VOLTAGE 12, 24 and
48 Volt water heaters makes
accidental electrocution
impossible! Heat your water safely!
Do not buy the 110 VAC
killer heaters!!
Sooner or later they always
fail!

PROBLEM SOLVING; The pipe thread seems too tight!
In some cases it is a tight fit depending
on how deep the manufacturer of the FEMALE receptacle tapered
their thread cut in the pipe hole.
A water heater element style 1"
national pipe thread (NPT) has a radical taper to it. Since the
thread is so short on the heater the taper is at its maximum
pipe O.D. already. This prevents leaks but it may also cause
the thread to be very tight and hard to get started in some holes
that are not fully tapered by the manufacturer.
SOLUTION; If
you take a 1" NPT pipe tap and make the hole taper just
a hair larger and then your heater will spin right in. You can
also take a 1" pipe die and cut a little off of the heater
threads too.

Questions And Answers
Q. - Will it work on my rubber maid tank and what
do you think of solar? Also how do I get maximum battery life
in winter the months.
A - It works on most of the rubber maid tanks but
you will have to check if it is a 1" pipe thread. Also we
use a BOTTOM TAP NPT thread style so sometimes
you may have to re-thread the hole to the largest possible 1"
taper but that is easy. I would highly recommend that you go
to the smallest tank size possible in the winter months so the
heater can do its job. Since the battery needs to be swapped
out and the dead one recharged daily most people with 3 horses
could get away with just a 20 to 30 gallon tank if re-filled
daily. This does not mean you have to remove your big water tank
but just offer the live stock an alternative drinking spot that
is smaller and still liquid. The problem with solar is that the
snow covers the panel so it also needs daily sweeping, The panels
also cost about $1800.00 each for the Wattage needed to run the
600 Watt heater and the theft rate on an $1800.00 solar panel
sitting in the middle of an open field is about 100% in the first
year!
Q. -How does this all work? Please tell me what I
need to do.
A. - Most of our customers connect a freshly charged
deep cycle battery on their tank heater every 2 days and then
they JUST swap them out for a newly charged
battery every few days. This means you will need two deep cycle
batteries. One is operating the heater while the other one being
recharged. No more chopping sheets of ice, battery swapping is
all you need to do here. EASY! The water above the heater is
always open. Also put straw bails around your tank and set the
tank on an 8" bed of straw to keep it off of the cold ground.
You can also build a dirt ramp around it for short animals if
necessary.
Q. -Why is my battery only lasting 6 hours?
A. - First of all 6 hours of making warm water is
very good because it may actually take the water 18 hours or
more to cool back down to freezing so you have figure that into
the whole timing equation. Having a tank with insulated walls
that also is not siting on the ice cold ground will also help
extend your warm water time dramatically.
Second, make very sure that you charge your battery up to
a full 13.8 volts . This will give you TWICE the power of an
ordinary 12 volt charge. This can be done by using a charger
that has a "Boost" mode on it and a timer. Set it for
60 minutes on full BOOST mode. Using a charger that has a START/BOOST
mode super charges your battery effectively doubling its energy
output! Double check the charge with a volt meter and make sure
its 13.7 volts or higher. If not give it 60 more minutes of charging
at on the start/boost setting.
You can also try buy a bigger DEEP cycle battery or even
add many batteries in parallel to increase heating time. Insulate
your batteries too. A cold battery is a dead battery!
The BEST deep cycle battery is a TROJAN
model # DC-500ML. This is the battery you should get! ALSO
try putting the heater about 12" RIGHT ABOVE the drinking
area to concentrate the heat near the surface of the water. You
can use 3 or 4 cinder blocks to get up to this leave.
( Rare facts: A 12 volt battery can be charged up as high
as 14.7 volts)
Q. - CAN I CONNECT ONE OF THESE 12 VOLT HEATERS DIRECTLY
TO MY WIND TURBINE?
A - NO!!! It will burn up in a wind storm since the
heater may see voltage levels 5 or 6 times higher than its rating.
REMEDY- You need to use a very small 12 volt motor cycle battery
in parallel as a buffer! This will protect the heater from receiving
over voltages!!! It must be a lead-acid type battery that CAN
BE refilled with water (Do not get a sealed type or a dry cell!!!)
Even an old used car battery will do just fine as long as it
has a tiny bit of life left, it will still make a good power
buffer.
