Got two tanks that need cooling at the same time? That's what the 5500-2 is built for. Two 80 gal/hr vane pumps come installed from the factory, so there's no second chiller to buy and no pump upgrade to add later.
One thing worth knowing before you order: both pumps run off the same thermostat. You get one setpoint across both tanks, not two independent temperatures. If you need a fermenter at 68°F and a bright tank at 34°F on the same chiller, this isn't the model for that. Look at the 13000-2 instead, it runs two separate thermostats.
At 5,500 BTU/h, it holds fermenters and bright tanks up to 1,000L. The compressor is a 1/2 HP unit on R290 refrigerant, quiet enough to sit in a taproom without customers noticing it's running.
