MICROclimate International DL2 User Manual

A vivarium should be set up to allow a temperature gradient. T he
heater should be at one end with the sensor in the centre of the
vivarium. T his will allow a Hot area, C ontrolled area and a C old area.
Controlled
Hotter
Correct temperature reading
The temperature sensor encased in the black sheath is very
accurate. Having set the desired temperature on the thermostat and
positioned the sensor in its required location the temperature of the
air will be controlled accurately at the position of the temperature
sensor.
The temperature nearer the heater (from the sensor position) will
be hotter and further away from the heater it will be cooler.
Please note that when using a thermometer to check the
temperature unless it is in exactly the same position as the
thermostat sensor there will be a discrepancy due to the positioning
of the thermometer.

IMPORTANT -­‐ T O ENSURE C ORRECT O PERATION O F Y OUR D L2 T HERMOSTAT
PLEASE READ T HE G UIDE BEFORE C OMMENCING INSTALLATION
DL2 T hermostat
The DL2 T hermostat is designed to give precise microprocessor
controlled temperature of non light emitting heat sources up to 600w.
This may include heatmats and ceramics. T he heater must be a
minimum of 5watts.
The DL2 is a pulse proportional thermostat which pulses the power to
the heat source. For this reason pulse proportional thermostats are not
suitable for light emitting heaters i.e bulbs.
WARNING DO NOT OVERLOAD YOUR THERMOSTAT BY
CONNECTING HEAT SOURCES OUTPUTS GREATER THAN
STATED. DAMAGE FROM OVERLOADING IS EXEMPT FROM
GUARANTEE.
