C-10 CONTROL PANEL INSTALLATION MANUAL

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
1. Plug the C-10 Power Cord into a properly grounded 120V outlet.
2. Set the temperature at which the de-icer will start running by rotating the thermostat dial to the arrow.
We recommend setting the activation temperature to 30°F. The C-10 works on temperature fall. When
the ambient air temperature reaches the set point on the thermostat, the de-icer will turn on. There is
a 2.5°F differential, so when the temperature rises to 2.5°F above the set thermostat temperature, the
de-icer will power off.
3. Plug the INSTALLED Kasco De-Icer into the piggyback plug of the C-10.
Use the following guidelines and hints to assist in customizing your setting for local conditions.
• De-Icers create small localized currents the longer they run. Fewer and longer operation cycles will prove
to be more effective than more frequent and shorter operation cycles.
• Fresh water freezes at 32°F, salt water at 28°F, and brackish water will freeze somewhere in between,
depending on the salinity level.
•
Once activated, the thermostat stays activated until the temperature rises the 2.5°F differential, putting
the temperature above the freezing point. This minimizes ice formation when the temperature is hover-
ing near the freezing point.
• Daily observation of all de-icing installations increases the likelihood of catching any issues early. A
number of factors can increase freeze rates and cause de-icing results to vary, including wind, snow, and
colder temperatures.
