prevent overheating and undercooling during hot summer days or
cold winter nights. Both the daytime and nighttime temperatures can
be set separately to guarantee safe daytime-nighttime temperature
fluctuations for your reptiles. The Dimming & Pulse Proportional
function keeps the temperature at the desired setpoint with a much
higher accuracy than conventional thermostats and virtually eliminates
temperature swings in the terrarium. The easy-to-read blue LCD
screen shows actual and set temperature, and will automatically
increase brightness of the LCD in day mode and use dim light when
in night mode. A Red LED and a heating symbol will indicate when the
heating device is switched ON. Once the set temperature is reached,
the LED will switch to Blue and the heating symbol will no longer
show. The temperature probe with built-in light sensor switches
automatically between daytime and nighttime temperature setting,
based on the light intensity. Simply connect your Heat Mat, Heat Cable,
Ceramic Heater or Heat Bulb to the Exo Terra
®
Day/Night Thermostat,
set the preferred daytime and nighttime temperatures and place the
heat sensor in the desired spot. The push button/dial system of the
thermostat will prevent accidental changes of the set temperature if
the device is being handled. The Thermostat comes with a 6.2 foot
/ 190cm power-cord with grounded plug & receptacle for increased
safety and to allow the use of a power outlet strip. The waterproof
remote sensor can be safely used in highly moist terrariums and
aquatic environments.
The Exo Terra
®
Thermostat should be set according to the needs of
the animals. Thoroughly research the preferred optimum temperature
range (POTR) for your specific reptile, so you can create the correct
temperature gradients inside the terrarium to allow your reptiles to
thermoregulate.
Red LED and heating symbol will indicate when heating device is
powered.
Blue LED will indicate when set temperature has been reached.
