Blue control wire and black element return wire are connected.
Connect L2/Neutral to these during installation.
CAUTION: Disconnect power supply before installation to
prevent electric shock.
1. Unpack and place Linear Proportional Convector on floor face
up, use packaging to protect floor if required. Remove front cov-
ers.
!
NOTE: Remove the center cover, by releasing the top first.
!
NOTE: Heater fins can be easily bent. For optimal perfor-
mance ensure that they remain vertical.
2. Orient unit in desired location and mark pilot holes - top and bot-
tom at both ends and at least one set in middle.
3. Wire unit as per diagrams (below) and National and Local Electri-
cal Codes.
CAUTION: Connect heaters to a branch circuit used only for
permanently installed heater and protected by over current
devices rated or set at no more than 30 amperes. The total
connected load should not be more than 80% of the rating of the
over current devices. It may cause a fire hazard if not installed
and maintained in accordance with these instructions.
4. Position LPC, pushing cable back into wall (or conduit), run
screws through pre-selected mounting holes and spacers (if ap-
plicable), using appropriate wall anchors, if necessary.
!
NOTE: Screw should be backed off 1/2 turn from snug posi-
tion to allow free expansion and contraction of housing and to
ensure quiet operation.
5. Replace covers on unit.
!
NOTE: Install the center cover first, by installing the top first,
then the bottom.
Usage of multiple Linear Proportional Convectors
Multiple Linear Proportional Convectors can be wired in parallel
on a single circuit. To use/control multiple Linear Proportional
Convectors from a single source, aCONNEX
used. By synchronizing one CONNEX
the controller can control all of the heaters from one location. Each
component must be within 15m (45ft) of any other component in the
system for the entire system to operate.
Operation
1. This linear convector must be properly installed before it is used.
2. Prior to energization remove all construction dirt (plaster,
sawdust, etc.) from interior and exterior of linear convector.
Dimplex linear convectors are designed and tested for safe and
trouble-free operation. All Dimplex linear convectors are protected
against overheating by a built-in thermal cutout. Free airflow
throughout the linear convector is extremely important for the most
efficient operation of the linear convector. Restricted airflow may
cause the thermal overload protector to cycle the linear convector
"ON and OFF". A cycling linear convector will not supply sufficient
heat to the room.

CAUTION: Avoid direct contact of paper, fabric, or furniture with
linear convector, to prevent a possible fire.
When power is first supplied to the LPC the Setpoint Temperature
will flash in the temperature display area. At any time either the + or
- button can be pressed to have the temperature setpoint displayed
again.
A. Setting/Temperature Display
The LPC is designed to control the temperature of a room anywhere
from 32-86°F (0-30°C). Pressing the + or - will increase or decrease
the desired temperature for the room to be heated by 0.5° (in either
°C or °F).
After 5 seconds the Setpoint Temperature will switch to display the
intake temperature of the room.
!
NOTE: Pressing the + and - at the same time will toggle between
°C and °F.
B. Economy Setting
The Economy Setting can be used to change the Setpoint
Temperature for a variable period of time. By pressing the v the
Economy Setting will be enabled - signified by the icon flashing.
After the Set Back Temperature has been set, the icon will become
solid after three seconds and the Set Back Temperature will be
enabled.
To return back to the Comfort Setting press the v button and the
icon will disappear and the
C. Set Back Temperature Setting
The Set Back Temperature Setting is used during periods when the
Economy setting feature is active. This temperature adjustment can
be set by pressing the v followed by the + or -.
D. Comfort Setting
The Comfort Setting icon will be displayed when the heater is in
normal operation based on the Setpoint Temperature for the room.
!
NOTE: Either the or
on the setting being used.
E. Synchronized Icon
The LPC features CONNEX
with Dimplex single and multi-zone CONNEX
provide simple whole home connectivity and comfort. CONNEX
controllers are available to control one or multiple Precision Comfort
Heaters within a 50' (15 m) radius. In order for the controller
to have this function the LPC and the controller will need to be
synchronized. To do this:
1. On the LPC heater press and hold the
both the and icons will begin to flash.
2. Press the - , + and then v, on the LPC heater.
3. Within 10 seconds press any button once on the CONNEX
controller.
!
NOTE: There is a 3 second delay between pressing the last
button the CONNEX controller and the LPC heater.
