The Finnex HC-820M is an advanced digital processor controller tused for monitoring and adjusting aquarium water temperature. A remote sensor is placed in the aquarium water, sending temperature data to the controller to avoid wild temperature swings. The sensor contains no bi-metallic contacts, so you don't have to worry about arcing, corrosion, or the sensor wearing out over time like you would with a lower quality temperature controller. Additionally, the remote sensor has an automatic power-off function that will cut power to the heating tube if the sensor is exposed to air, preventing your aquarium from overheating in the event of low water level. The controller's LCD screen boldly displays the current temperature and includes buttons for easy temperature adjustment by a tenth of a degree.

  • 3 Digit digital display and control
  • 1000 Watt max. output load with dual relay protection
  • Out of water sensor protection with audio alert

Product Questions

Why would a Finnex 820 Saltwater Temp Controller have a caution/warning that it’s not effective in low TDS/ RODI water?
Because it wouldn’t do well in a top-off container but would be effective in a saltwater reservoir or aquarium at 1.02x specific gravity?
Question by: Leo Yurek on Nov 19, 2023, 11:10 AM
The heaters use a TDS sensor to detect water where the cord connects with the heater. Freshwater may not contain enough minerals to be conductive, resulting in the heater falsely thinking it's out of water.
