SECTION 2: MOUNTING OF SAUNA HEATER
Carefully locate the heater according to the dimensions shown in Diagram 1
and bolt it to the floor. (Bolts are not supplied with the heater.) Tighten to
secure the heater in place.
SECTION 3: PLACING OF ROCKS
The rocks supplied with the heater have been chosen to provide the best
heater performance. Use of any other type of rock may void the heaters
warranty. Never operate the heater without rocks in place! Rinse the rocks
with water before placing in the heater. Place the larger rocks at the bottom
and the smallest at the top. Place the rocks loosely so that the air can
circulate through the heater. Packing the rocks too tightly may cause the
heater high limit switch to trip. The rocks must fully cover the heating
elements. Attach the rock guard with the screws provided.
SECTION 4: ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP
Electrical installation must be made by a licensed electrician in accordance
with the National Electrical Code and local regulations.
This heater is intended for use with 19-8... controls only. Use of any other
control type will void the warranty and UL listing. The control panel and
contactor box must be installed in a dry location outside the sauna room.
The control panel must be located to allow installation of the thermostat' s
temperature sensor shown in Diagram 1. The sensor wire supplied is 9 feet,
but it may be extended at the control end with 2 conductor wire.
The model 1201-7-3 contactor box is required for use with a three phase
heater, the model 1201-7-1 contactor box is required for use with a single
phase heater. To determine the correct wire size, refer to Diagram 2. Use
copper supply wire only, suitable for minimum 90 degrees C. The heater
must be grounded! See the heater and control wiring diagrams for proper
connections.
SECTION 5: TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Feed the sensor wire from the control to the sensor location. It may be
necessary to drill holes to string the wire through the studs or ceiling joists.
Route wires into control box and connect to terminals #2 and #3 at the
thermostat terminal block. Using a flat tip screwdriver, unsnap sensor
cover from sensor. Mount sensor horizontally to the finished wall directly
above heater one & a half (1½) inches down from ceiling using two (2)
screws (provided) as shown in diagrams 1, 3 & 5.
SECTION 6: HEATER SCREEN (GUARD RAIL)
Install a wooden heater guard to prevent the sauna bather from accidentally
