Installation guidelines
230 V AC
90 - 120°
A. Control thermostat (line sensing)
1. Check the voltage and the rated power of the switching circuit
2. Attach temperature sensor to the pipe with adhesive tape. The sensor should rest
firmly against the pipe without intermediate space. The minimum distance of the
sensor from fittings and the pipe end is 1 m. The angle of the pipe between the heating
cable and the sensor should be 90-120°.
3. Mount the housing in the required position.
4. Adjust the temperature. Finish the wiring and insulation. Only operate with insulated
sensor.
5. Fill the pipes, check the operating points with a thermometer and correct if necessary.
Due to the low heat conductivity of non-metallic pipes, adjust the thermostat operating
point only when the pipe is full.
B. Ambient thermostat
1. Shorten the sensor cable so that the temperature sensor is located within the screwed
gland.
2. Check the voltage and the rated power of the switching circuit.
3. Select a suitable place for the thermostat installation:
Outdoor installation: Mount the thermostat away from direct sunlight and wind.
Indoor installation: Mount the thermostat at a place where the lowest temperature can
be expected. Do not install the thermostat under the insulation.
