WATER CONTROLLER INSTALLATION
WATER CONTROLLERS
Water controllers are available as an optional extra.
POSITIONING OF WATER CONTROLLERS
Water controllers must be installed in shaded and clean locations. They should be fitted out of reach
of children (suggested height from floor to be at least 1500 mm).
WATER CONTROLLER CABLES
Water controllers operate at extra low voltage (12 Volts DC) which is supplied from the water heater.
Each Water controller comes supplied with 15 m of electrical cable. The appliance end of the cables
are fitted with spade terminals. Extension cabling is available from Dux.
Other manufacturers water controllers are NOT compatible with Dux Endurance
water heaters.
Water controllers brought in from other countries are not compatible with Dux
appliances sold in Australia.
• Do not install Water Controllers near a heat source, such as a cook top, stove
or oven. Heat, steam, smoke and hot oil may cause damage.
• Do not install remote controllers in direct sunlight.
• Do not install remote controllers outdoors unless protection from dust
ingress and sunlight are provided.
• Do not install remote controllers against a metal wall unless the wall is
earthed in accordance with AS/NZS 3000.
• Water controllers MUST NOT be installed where chemicals such as benzine,
alcohol, turpentine or other similar chemicals are in use.
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE WATER CONTROLLER.
The water controller uses a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for the
digital monitor. Light reflections can make the LCD difficult to
see at direct eye level.
For best results when Installing the water controller mount lower
than your eye-level to avoid these light reflections.
Alternatively two core sheathed (double insulated) flex with minimum cross-
sectional area of 0.5 mm² may be used. Maximum individual cable runs should
not exceed 50 m.
FITTING THE WATER CONTROLLER
1.
Determine the most suitable position for the water controller.
2.
Mark and drill 3 holes, locating the cable access as shown in (Fig. 1).
3.
When running cable through the access hole ensure the connector end of the cable is located
nearest to the controller (Fig.2).
4.
Carefully remove face plate from the water controller, using a screw driver (Fig. 3).
5.
Connect the cable to the water controller. Feed any excess cable lengths into the wall cavity to
avoid the pinching of cables between the wall and the controller.
6.
Fix the water controller to the wall using the appropriate fixings as shown in (Fig. 4).
