INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
ELECTRICAL
Electrical Power Supply:
These instructions are written
assuming 60Hz, 120V power supply. Special notations are
also included for export versions of the equipment and
power supply.
WARNING: Verification of electrical requirements
MUST be made before installation. Refer to the
equipment labels for voltage and frequency
requirements.
NOTE:
The bath is designed for indoor use only. The
electrical equipment must not be exposed to direct
or indirect water or moisture contact. The electrical
equipment must also be protected from dust and other
airborne debris before, during, and after installation.
1. Electrical
Service:
A licensed electrician must
provide the “dedicated” electrical service protected
by a GFCI. The location of the GFCI must be at least
five (5) feet (152cm) away from the inside surface of
the bath, accessible for regular testing. Use copper
conductors only.
DANGER — RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
Connect
only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). In the unlikely occurrence of a
current imbalance in the power conductors, the GFCI
will interrupt the power to the bath.
WARNING:
The electrical service to the GFCI must
not be interrupted by any control device. Likewise, the
electrical service from the GFCI to the bath control
should be direct and not interrupted by a switch. Never
use a switch in conjunction with a control device.
This
will VOID THE MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY.
2.
GROUNDING IS REQUIRED.
The unit should be installed by a qualified service
representative and properly grounded.
3.
INSTALL SERVICE CONNECTION AT LEAST 6"
(15cm) ABOVE SUB FLOOR.
ALL LOCAL AND STATE ELECTRICAL AND
PLUMBING CODES MUST BE OBSERVED.
Where
there are no local codes, the
National Electric Code
(NEC) and Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC)
shall
be observed. It is the responsibility of the installer/
owner to determine specific code compliance prior to
installation of the product.
NOTE
: In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
installation is to be done by a Massachusetts licensed
plumber.

generator unit may be
shipped separate from the bath. Follow the instructions for
the
MicroSilk
®
Pump Assembly Field Installation
in the
Installation
section of this owner’s manual (instructions
are also packaged with the MicroSilk
®
unit packaging). The
blower is prewired to the control box. The control boxes
have a 36" (91cm) cord with plug end. The MicroSilk
®
and blower control boxes are mounted on a stand that
is temporarily secured to the packing board for shipping.
These boxes must remain on the control box bracket so
that the two boxes can communicate properly through
their infrared communication feature. During installation,
the control box bracket and controls must be positioned
horizontally and located to permit access for inspection
and servicing. The MicroSilk
®
pump’s power cord will
need to be plugged into the control box. Connect the
blower’s male NEMA plug to the female NEMA plug of
the control box’s load line. The MicroSilk
®
control and the
blower control must be plugged into a dedicated 120V,
20A, 60Hz, GFCI protected circuit.
