quired for the controller to work, however, standard truck stock items
will also be required to install the controller. To simplify the installa-
tion, a list of items has been provided.
Conduit to go between the controller and the evaporator
(2) Conduit connectors (straight or elbow as required)
(8) High voltage wires matched to the load of the heaters,
fans, liquid line solenoid, and the controller.
(8) Spade Connectors matched to the gauge of high volt-
age wires
Wire labeling (numbers, colors, etc.)
Wire ties
18 gauge twisted shielded pair (if extending sensor wires)
Foam insulation if running wires outside the space.
Silicone (for sealing any box penetrations)
Accessories to Aid in Installation
The following parts are available separately:
10' Wire Harness pn 20736, 25' Wire Harness pn 20670, or 40' Wire
Harness pn 20737
Further information on the Wire Harness can be found in literature
Q.1.21.
* When used with the KE2 Adaptive Control controller, the fuses must be sized to

  • Page 3 Typically last spots to defrost Steps to Ensure Proper Coil Sensor Location KE2 Therm recommends locating the coil sensor as described above. Typically the coldest spot is on the side of the suction header/expan- sion valve side of the evaporator. Select two places that are the last to defrost, preferably at each end of the evaporator.
  • Page 4 The wire should be long enough to account for the necessary con- nections in the controller and evaporator. Use the optional KE2 Wire Harness, or select different colored wires, (blue - fan, orange - heaters, yellow - solenoid, purple - alarm). This will simplify the installation and troubleshooting.
