INSTALLATION
Installing a Remote Control Enclosure
Remote control enclosures must be mounted on the front of
the unit to ensure the controls correspond with the correct wells
(the front of the unit is the side the conduit enters under the
unit). Remote control enclosures cannot be rewired and must
be installed in the proper location.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD: Remote control enclosure
must be mounted on vertical wall and installed in vertical
position. Mounting remote control enclosure in horizontal
position may result in collection of liquids and lead to
electric shock.
NOTE: A qualified electrician should connect the unit(s) to a
power source.
1. Cut and drill the appropriate holes in the mounting surface.
Refer to the "Control Enclosure Cutout Dimensions" chart
below for the cutout dimensions for each control enclosure.
• The cutout depth required for all control enclosures is
6-1/2" (165 mm).
• Make sure to have enough space inside the cutout if
installing with conduit on the side of the control enclosure.
• For units with two control enclosures: Each enclosure
cutout size will be different (see chart below).
2. Remove the trim cover from the control enclosure.

source to the mounted
remote control enclosure.
Wiring must be fixed a
minimum of 4" (102 mm)
from bottom of well(s).
6. Apply a 1/4" (6 mm) bead
of NSF-approved silicone
sealant where the trim cover
will contact the cabinet surface. Refer to the "Control
Enclosure Cutout and Screw Hole Dimensions" illustration
for more information.
7. Reinstall the trim cover on the control enclosure and
secure in position using the four trim cover screws. Make
sure to embed the trim cover edge into the silicone.
NOTE: Standard UL approved units are equipped with a
