accommodate wires larger than 12AWG. 20 or 30 Amp
service may be required for cable runs longer than 300’.
4.
The control box is provided with class CC protective
fusing for the incoming power.
5. Mount the control box on a wall adjacent to the door at

Control box to disconnect conduit run (by others).
When drilling holes in the box, do not allow the
drill to go too deeply into the box. Damage to
the control systems may occur.
CAUTION !!!
!
DO NOT turn control box upside down to drill any
access holes. Debris may fall into electrical components
causing failure or severe equipment damage.
WARNING!!!
!
When working with electrical or electronic
controls, make sure that the power source has
been locked out and tagged according to OSHA
regulations and approved local electrical codes.
WARNING!!!
!
The control box and all wiring should be
installed by a qualified electrician in accordance
with all national and local electrical codes.
IMPORTANT!!!
If rigid conduit is installed, bonding must be
maintained between conduit connections by
using ground bushings and a jumper wire.
IMPORTANT!!!
In freezer and cooler applications where a
conduit passes from a warm to cold temperature
zone, the conduit must be plugged with epoxy.
This will help prevent condensation from
forming in the conduit. For more information,
see Section 300-7a of the National Electric Code.
