KE2 Adaptive

Control 

(pn 21177)

Quick Start Guide

Supplies List

The KE2 Adaptive Control is supplied with all of the accessories re-

quired for the controller to work, however, standard truck stock items 

will also be required to install the controller.  To simplify the installa-

tion, a list of items has been provided.

  Conduit to go between the controller and the evaporator
  (2) Conduit connectors 
(straight or elbow as required)
  (8) High voltage wires matched to the load of the heaters, 

fans, liquid line solenoid, and the controller.

 (8) Spade Connectors matched to the gauge of high volt-

age wires

  Wire labeling (numbers, colors, etc.)
 Wire ties
 18 gauge twisted shielded pair
 (if extending sensor wires)
 Foam insulation if running wires outside the space.
 Silicone 
(for sealing any box penetrations)

Accessories to Aid in Installation

The following parts are available separately:

10’ Wire Harness pn 20736, 25’ Wire Harness pn 20670, or 40’ Wire 

Harness pn 20737

Further information on the Wire Harness can be found in literature 

Q.1.21.

* When used with the KE2 Adaptive Control controller, the fuses must be sized to 

match the application (i.e. Replace existing fuses with 30 Amp Time Delay fuses 

for fans and compressor)
