General Information
Timers are a beneficial optional accessory when incorporated with any Heat-
Line freeze protection system. Regardless of the overall system length and or
operating voltage, a Heat-Line Timer will reduce energy costs by decreasing
overall energy consumption. A Timer can be added to Heat-Line systems in
order to duty cycle the heating cable at a selected time interval and percentage.
This field adjustable timer offers true flexibility for repetitive cycle times, and
offers 8 selectable cycle durations with 30 separate percentage positions for
ON time periods. To obtain the best results from your investment, please read
these instructions and acquaint yourself with your purchase before installing
your new timer. Then follow the installation procedures, one step at a time.
This will save you time and minimize the risk of damaging the timer and the
system it controls.
IMPORTANT!
Please read all instructions carefully before beginning
installation. Save them for future reference.
WARNING:
Only use with 120V-15A or 240V-15A GFCI model Heat-Line
brand self-regulating heating cable systems.
