COPPER PIPE INSTRUCTIONS

1.) Follow the same instructions in 

steps 1-6

 for PVC, CPVC and PEX pipe. 

Use Chart B for Copper

2.) Instead of a single coil wrapping around the pipe, a second one is added for copper pipe.

3.) YOU MUST KEEP THE SECOND WRAPPING IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE FIRST!  Wrap 

right over the top of the first layer continuing in the same wrapping direction as the first layer – 
clockwise or counterclockwise.  This second layer must also be tight and touching the prior wrap.  

(Figure C)

4.) Wrap a third cable tie around the pipe and both wires.  

Pull the cable tie tight.  (

Figure D)

 

5.) Follow same instructions in 

steps 7-8 

for PVC, CPVC and PEX pipe.

ACTIVATING THE SYSTEM

1.) Once the power unit has been installed and the pipe has been wrapped, insert the connector end of the 

AC power adaptor into the power unit. (See 

Illustration A

 on page 5)

2.) Plug in the transformer end of the cord into a 110-volt electrical outlet.

3.) Operation of the 

ScaleBlaster

 SB-75 system can be confirmed by observing the illumination of the 

LED indicator located on the face of the power unit. Power on - green light on far right side will stay 
lit 

(Figure E)

. When pipe is wrapped and unit is turned on the far right light will stay lit and the other 

lights will oscillate back and forth 

(Figure F)

.

        

MAINTENANCE

The best feature of the 

ScaleBlaster

 SB-75 is that there is NO MAINTENANCE REQUIRED. No salt, 

batteries, moving parts or costly repairs. Just check the LED light for proper operation.
