How to Install the THERM16C Temperature Controller

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring the THERM16C temperature controller in an electric cabinet.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Mount the controller

    Secure the THERM16C controller to the upper area of the electric cabinet using the integrated clips. Ensure it is level and firmly attached, away from heat-generating components.

  2. Connect the wiring

    Use heat-resistant cables to connect the thermostat to the appropriate terminals. Ensure that the clamping screws are fully tightened on terminals without connected wires to prevent contact resistance.

  3. Configure the settings

    Set the temperature hysteresis to 5K +2/-3K as recommended. Adjust the temperature settings on the controller, allowing for the largest possible hysteresis to ensure optimal performance.
