Caution: Sulphur
vaporization can damage your controller! To protect
your controller, it is important to disconnect and cover the Atlas
1 by wrapping with a plastic bag OR remove the controller from the
grow area while using sulphur vaporizers in your
grow room. Titan Controls can analyze and detect CO2
components that have been contaminated & damaged by
sulphur vaporization. We reserve the right
to not repair these defective units under warranty, however we can
repair & return your Atlas 1 for a fee, if you'd like us
to.
Q: Does my Titan controller need to be
calibrated?
A: No, your controller has been factory calibrated and is ready
for service when you take it out of the box. Each unit will
provide years of use and will maintain its settings without any
further changes required. Please contact us at 888-808-4826,
if you think that your calibration is not correct and we can help
you out.
Q: What is the recommended setting for my Atlas 1
CO2 Monitor/Controller?
A: We have pre-set the part per million (ppm) at 1000
ppm. This should be sufficient to increase the CO2 to the
level that will provide positive results for your plants. The
industry standard is 1000 ppm to 1500 ppm. We don't recommend
that you exceed 1500 ppm due to health considerations.
Q: My CO2 monitor/controller is reading really
high all the time. What's wrong with it?
A: We hear this a lot. The main issue is the 2000
ppm of CO2 we exhale when we're breathing. If you're in your
room and you see that the ppm is high, leave the area for an hour
or so and turn off your CO2 source, then peek your head in and
check the reading, it should be reading under 1000 ppm mattering on
how well your room is sealed. After observing your CO2
Monitor/Controller for awhile, you'll start to see what your normal
ppm level is in your room. The normal outdoor ppm is 400 ppm
to 600 ppm based on where you live (city vs. rural).
Q: Should I run my CO2 at night?
A: No, you shouldn't. Plants photosynthesize CO2
only during the daylight hours. At night, the plants expire
CO2 and have no use for CO2. So, save yourself some money and
only dose CO2 during daylight hours when it does the most good for
the plants.
Q: I'd like to control a water cooled CO2
generator with the Atlas 1. How many horsepower (HP) can the Atlas
1 handle?
A: The Atlas 1 can control up to a 1/2 HP pump based on
the relay technology that is used in the product.
