If your heating blanket does not have its own internal temperature control device, it must be
connected to an external control device. The heater must NOT be operated without some
form of temperature control.
Your heater is designed to operate at a specific voltage ±10%. Refer to the label
on the heater for proper operating voltage and wattage information. Failure to
operate the heater at the specified rating could result in overheating of the
heating blanket, the surface being heated, or personal injury. Also note lower-
than-rated voltage will result in under-heating.
All electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel and in
accordance with all applicable codes and regulations.
2.
Ensure heater is protected by a properly rated circuit breaker or fuse.
3.
Use of a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is highly recommended and may be required
according to local electric code.

Hot Bonder or compatible temperature
control device. Reference your temperature controller instructions to determine correct
plug . If your heater does not have a plug, one can be attached.
If your heater does not have a plug:
Two wires (same color) should be connected to the power source (or temperature control
device) directly, through a junction box, or to a connector that is mated to a receptacle
connected to the power source. See BriskHeat
