WARNING

     SECTION 4: ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP

     SECTION 5: HEATER SCREEN (GUARD RAIL)

     SECTION 6: OPERATION

Install a wooden heater guard to prevent the sauna bather from  
accidentally touching the sauna heater.  Install the heater guard rail 
with the height clearances and dimensions shown in Diagram 7.

Electrical installation must be made by a licensed electrician in 
accordance with the National Electrical Code and local regulations. 

Remove the painted cover from the side of the heater . Route the feed 
wires through the holes provided in the bo ttom of the heater and 
connect the wires to the appropriate labeled wires.  To determine the 
correct wire size, refer to Diagram 4.  Use copper supply wire only, 
suitable for minimum 90 degrees C.  The heater must be grounded!  See 
Diagram 5 for proper connections.

The control for this heater has  a thermostat to adjust the sauna 
temperature and a timer to control when the heater starts and stops. The 
maximum the timer will allow the heater to operate is 60 minutes.  For 
health and fire safety, never attempt to alter or bypass the timer or 
thermostat.  

The Digi II (1601-11) Control should be mounted outside the room. 
The control has  16ft control wire supplied. The maximum control wire 
length would be 90ft. 

The sensor should be mounted over the heater 2" from the ceiling and 
connected to the circuit board on terminals 2 and 3. See 

Diagram 1

Control Overview

Alarms  

The control is equipped with an alarm that indicates a faulty 

thermostat sensor and or wire. The control will display "heat sensor 
cable cut". During the alarm the control will turn power off  to the 
heater and the display will remain on the control. Rectify the fault 
situation and recycle power to heater. If problem persists refer to

Chart and the temperature 

rating indicated on the 

heater junction box.

All heaters and controls

A guardrail or fence is 

required around the heater
