Safety Instructions
a) In general
The warranty will be void in the event of damage caused by failure to observe these safety
instructions! We do not assume any liability for any consequential damage!
Nor do we assume any liability for material and personal damage caused by improper use
or non-compliance with the safety instructions! The warranty will be void in such cases!
• The unauthorised conversion and/or modifi cation of the product is not allowed for safety and
approval reasons (CE). Never dismantle the product.
• The product must not be exposed to extreme temperatures, strong vibrations or heavy
mechanical stress.
• The product must not get damp or wet, it is solely intended for use in dry, indoor spaces.
• The product is not a toy and should be kept out of the reach of children!
• Do not leave packaging material carelessly lying around since it could become a dangerous
plaything for children.
• In commercial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the employer's liability insur-
ance association for electrical systems and operating facilities are to be observed!
b) Installation
• The product may only be installed by a qualifi ed technician (e.g. electrician) who is
familiar with the relevant regulations (e.g. VDE, German electrical wiring regulations)!
Improper work, carried out on the mains voltage, endangers not only your own life but
also the life of others!
If you do not have the expertise required for the installation, do not install it yourself
but ask a qualifi ed technician.
• The thermostat may only be installed and operated in enclosed housings. Only the spindle for
the rotary knob may lead to the outside. The enclosed rotary knob (or another suitable rotary
knob) must be mounted on the spindle.
• The specifi ed safety distance between live components carrying mains voltage (contacts or
connections on the thermostat, etc.) and exposed parts of the enclosure (the device in which
the thermostat is installed) must be maintained at all times.
• The device in which the thermostat is to be installed must be disconnected from the mains
voltage and all other cables/leads. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
If the device does not have a mains plug but is permanently connected to the mains voltage,
switch off the corresponding circuit breakers and also at the residual current circuit breaker,
so the mains supply line is disconnected on all poles from the mains voltage.
Secure it against unauthorised reconnection, e.g., with a danger sign.
Check there is no voltage with a suitable measuring instrument (e.g. a digital multimeter).
• Capacitors in the device in which the thermostat is to be installed may remain charged for a
long time, even after the device is switched off and disconnected from the mains voltage.
There is a risk of a life-threatening electric shock!
• Do not use the thermostat in rooms or under adverse ambient conditions where combustible
gases, vapours or dust are or may be present! There is a risk of explosion!
• The input power of the thermostat (see "Technical Data") must not be exceeded.
• When routing the capillary tube and also when attaching the sensor, make sure that neither
the capillary tube nor the sensor is kinked, pinched or otherwise damaged.
Do not shorten or cut off the capillary tube or the sensor.
Do not screw any screws or anything similar through the sensor tip.
Doing so renders the thermostat unusable!
Installation and Connection

Version 02/13
The thermostat is provided with three connections for cable
lugs; also observe the label on the bottom of the thermostat.
If in doubt, leave the installation and connection to a specialist.
Operating Principle
There is a liquid in the long capillary tube (and the sensor tip), which is permanently connected to the thermo-
stat, which expands on warming. At the end of the capillary tube in the thermostat there is a pressure sensor,
which is mechanically preloaded by the adjustment spindle.
A heating device, which is activated via the switch contact, increases the temperature; the liquid in the
installed sensor warms up and expands.
The control element on the pressure sensor breaks the circuit, when it reaches a given temperature.
The temperature falls again and the liquid in the capillary tube contracts.
At a given temperature, the circuit closes again and the process is repeated.
The temperature at which the thermostat breaks the circuit can be adjusted using the adjustment spindle.
Since this is not an electronic control, it is not possible to set thermostat exactly to a specifi c temperature.
