Fuse Control Power:  

See replacement parts list (located on back panel) 

  

WARNINGS 

1. Air vents located on top and bottom of console must not be blocked! To prevent an 

overheating condition the internal components must remain as close to room 
temperature (75ºF / 24ºC) as possible. 

2. Dangerous voltage capable of causing injury or death is present within this console. 

Power to all equipment must be disconnected before installation or beginning any 
troubleshooting procedures. 

Heater output wiring and component replacement must 

be made by qualified personnel only.

 

3. To minimize the possibility of fire or shock, do not expose this console to rain or 

excessive moisture. 

4. Do not use this console in areas where hazardous conditions exist such as excessive 

shock, vibration, dirt, corrosive gases, oil or where explosive gases or vapors are 
present. 

 

WIRING

  (For safety, disconnect all power sources prior to wiring) 

1. Attach the leads from your type thermocouple to the mini-plug provided. Take care to 

note the correct polarity. The red lead is (-) negative. 

2. The heater output current is sourced directly through the line cord. The rear console 

output receptacle and mating Hubbell plug provides live controlled power for direct 
connection to your heater(s). Connect one lead from your heater to one prong of the 
Hubbell plug (not ground). Connect the other lead from your heater to the other prong. 
Connect heater ground (if applicable) to the ground connection (G) on the plug.
