Installation Instructions
1.
Please fully read these instructions prior to installation and
operation.
2.
Determine a suitable mounting location for the SL control.
The control must be placed in a location that is within 4' of
a 120VAC electrical outlet and within 8' of the pipe being
heated and controlled.
3.
Mount the SL control to a rigid support such as a wall by way
of the rear mounting slots.
4.
The SL thermostat control is suitable for dry location (in-door)
installations only.
5.
Carefully uncoil and straighten the sensing wire/sensing bulb
and attach it to the outer surface of the pipe being heated.
The bulb on the end of the sensing wire must be located in
an area that is experiencing the same freezing or damaging
cold temperatures that the pipe is experiencing. The sensing
wire must not be kinked or compressed during installation.

Operation Instructions
1.
The SL thermostat control is designed to energize
heating cables when ambient temperatures drop
below the set value. By controlling heating cable operation
with the SL control, energy consumption is minimized.
2.
The bulb on the end of the sensing wire senses the
temperature. If the temperature of the bulb drops below
the pre-set temperature value the cable will energize, and
remain energized until the sensing bulb senses temperatures
above the pre-set value.
3.
The SL control can be tested for functionality by submerging
the sensing bulb in ice water for 10 minutes; the GFCI
receptacle or light indicator on your heating cable will be
energized.
4.
Disconnect the power to the SL control during the summer
months.
5.
At the beginning of the heating season and monthly during
operation, inspect the SL control and its connection to the
electrical power source.
6.
For SL-2G, check the GFCI at initial setup and on a
monthly basis. Testing of the GFCI is dependent upon the
temperature of the sensing bulb.

When used with pipe heating products, the sensing wire must
be secured to piping with tape, and not with devices such as
cable ties or pipe clamps, as these will damage the sensing
wire. The sensing wire must be protected from damage.
Sensing wire damage will result in improper control of the
heating cables and may result in frozen pipes and the risk of
fire or electrical shock.
Special notice - The sensor wire can be extended to
maximum of 100 feet using a CSA or UL approved 22/2 AWG
wire rated for up to 300V. To do so, cut the sensor wire one
foot away from the SL controller and splice the extension
wire in to the two cut ends of the original sensor wire.
6.
Plug the SL power cordset into a 120 VAC receptacle. The
lighted plug on the cordset will illuminate indicating that
there is power being supplied to the SL control.
7.
Set the desired protection temperature for your application
by adjusting the control activation temperature between
2° C and 25°C (36°F to 77°F).
8.
Plug in your heating cable to the GFCI receptacle on the
front of the SL control.
Sensor Wire
Assembly
a) If the ambient is below 21°C, turn the thermostat
control knob to the maximum setting; the GFCI will be
energized. Push the "TEST" button on the GFCI recptacle; a
"click" should be heard and the receptacle indicator light
will turn on. Push the "RESET" button on the GFCI recptacle
to reset the power (the indicator light will turn off).
b) If the ambient temperature is above 22°C, you will need
to "cool down" the sensing bulb to test the GFCI. It is
recommended to wait until the bulb is below 21°C as
in step a), however if this is not possible you will need to
submerge the sensing bulb in ice water for 10 minutes and
then follow the instructions as described in a) above. If the
GFCI cannot be reset, then a fault exists. Do not attempt to
bypass the GFCI. Bypassing the GFCI will result in the risk of
fire or electrical shock.
7.
The GFCI will not be affected by power interruptions on the
SL2G.
8.
Discontinue use and remove any unit that has been
damaged or has deteriorated for any reason. Other
conditions to look for are chewing by animals, water
damage/corrosion or physical abuse
