2. The location of the control is important, it will not function
correctly if above or within 500mm of a heat source or
draught. Care must also be taken not to obscure the slots at
the top or bottom of the control and that it is not exposed to
direct bright sunlight or close to a lamp fitting. Best
temperature accuracy will be achieved by mounting on an
internal wall or partition.
3. The pattress boxes (not provided) should have a depth of at
least 25mm. Plastic pattress boxes with vertical pillars are not
suitable.
Vertical tabs in metal pattress boxes should be removed.
Ensure all entries into the pattress boxes are sealed to
prevent draughts.
4. Before fitting to the mounting box setback temperature,
comfort temperature and comfort period must be selected. To
do this, adjust the appropriate dial on the reverse of the PCB.
5. The supply cable is not provided and should therefore be
selected to suit the appliance.
Warning: Although the control does not need an earth, the
appliance probably does. Ensure that the mounting box is
fitted with an earth terminal for earth continuity to the
appliance.
6. To connect the control in circuit wire in to the clearly marked
terminal block on the rear of the controller. The control must
only be connected via fixed wiring.
7. Secure the control to the pattress box such that there are no
gaps between the controller and wall or pattress box.
Note: If tamperproof screws are required they should be M3 x 40mm
long, counter sunk with a head diameter of no more than 6.5mm.

General Description
The PX01001 timer/thermostat can be used in conjunction with
heating appliances. They may be flush or surface mounted using a
standard 25mm box. The control is rated at 16A (250VAC) and can
be used in conjunction with heating appliances with a maximum total
input of 13 A resistive L.C. 230V - 50Hz. The controller cannot be
used with a Quartz heater without a suitable in-line contactor.
Control action: Type 1B
Operating Instructions
The PX01001 controls the room temperature by interrupting the
power supply to the appliance, therefore the appliance should
always be switched on and its thermostat set to maximum
temperature. Note this will not be reached if the pre-determined
maximum level is below that of the appliance thermostat setting.
When the comfort mode is activated by pressing the
centre of the control face, the green light illuminates.
The comfort mode allows the room to be heated to a pre-
determined temperature for a pre-determined time
period.
The red light indicates that the heater is operating.
Note that the heater will remain on for a minimum of 1
minute.
The red light may also be illuminated in the set back
mode when the PX01001 switches the heater on to
maintain the predetermined background temperature.
Installation
Before undertaking installation work, ensure the electricity supply is
disconnected from any relevant fixed wiring.
1. The control and heater should be installed in compliance with
the IEE Wiring Regulations
