AF:The Ambient temperature with Floor
TH116
Public Area
temperature limit (using a floor heating system to heat the room)
F:The Floor temperature (floor heating)
NOTE: This control module must be
mounted on a PB112 Series power base.
The thermostat has an On/Standby switch making it possible to put the thermostat in sleep mode when its use is no longer
TH113
required (e.g. summer).
Control Module Installation
Align the bracket tabs on the control module with the holes located on the power base.
Follow the same procedure for the TH116.

NOTE: Keep the thermostat's air vents clean and free
from obstructions.
NOTE: The screw cannot be removed completely.
FOR A AND AF MODELS ONLY At the rear o f the control module is a switch that has been
factory-set to the applicable temperature control.
NOTE: The AF model can be used for all temperature
control types (A, F and AF).
Note: The ambient sensor is not operational when the switch is set to I (u p ) .
GFCI Test
ߺߴߓߙߓ ߺߵߓ ࠣࠢࠪ࠘ࠥߓߓ
The GFCI monitors the electrical flow for any loss of current; if there is any loss, the thermostat will cut off power to the heating system. We reco mmend you test the GFCI immediately after installing the control module, and once a month thereafter to ensure it is operating properly. To test:
! Press the TEST button:
Successful: TEST warn­ing light is ON and power to heating system is cut off.
Unsucessful: The TEST warning light is OFF. Cut power to heating system from the main power panel and call customer service.
" When successful, reset thermostat (STANDBY/ON)
to power heating system.
NOTE: If the test warning light comes ON during normal
operation, cut power to heating system from the main power panel and hav e a n el ec tric ia n v erif y t he i ns tal lation.
At the rear of the control module are two potentiometers. These potentiometers act like a temperature lock. Even when occupants adjust the temperature using the dial on the front/rear of the control module, the potentiometers override the dial and maintain the temperature within the locked-in minimum and maximum range.
A - ambient temperature
F & AF - floor temperature limit
Use a flat tip screwdriver to rotate the pote nti om ete rs un til the notch points to the desired temperature.

Remote Input
The TH113 and TH116 are equipped with a remote input which allows connection of an optional telephone controller (CT240) or any other remote control system. When a command signal is received through this input, the thermostat automatically lowers its setpoint by 3.5°C. The LED lights up to indicate the signal’s presence (except for GA and GB models).
Bypass (not available for GA and GB power base):
The TEST button can be used to bypass the signal for a 2-hour period. The LED goes off to indicate the bypass.
NOTE: When combined with a GA/GB power base, the
TEST button is used only for GFCI testing. The bypass function is not available with these power base models.
Technical Specifications
Models: TH113 and TH116 A / AF / F Setting range: 45°F, 59°F to 95°F (7°C, 15°C to 35°C) Potentiometers: minimum: 41°F to 77°F (5°C to 25°C)

1. Introduction
This master and slave unit system is specially designed for large floor heating applications exceeding 15 A. The master thermostat controls a single or multiple floor heating zones driven by slave units. The master thermostat can control up to 10 slave units. Each slave unit drives its own zone and is equipped with a GFCI test button and warning light as well as an On/Standby switch to facilitate maintenance on specific zones of the floor installation.
2. Operation
Master Thermostat
The master unit controls the temperature and sends a signal to slave units when heating is required. The floor sensor is connected to the master unit. The master unit is powered by the slave units.
Slave Unit
The slave unit receives the signal sent by the master unit and activates its load.
NOTE: There must be a minimum of one slave unit ON to power the master unit.
3.2 Slave Units - Installation and Wiring
The slave units can operate on different voltages (e.g. 5 units @ 120 V and 5 @ 240 V).
Required parts: CT230-120GA, -120GB, -240GA or -240GB
Installation: On an electrical box
Location: Installation near the master thermostat is not required (i.e. can be installed in a utility room).
Wiring: The power bases are joined through a daisy chain connection.
n Connect the 120 V or 240 V power
base wires to the power (line) and to the load (floor) using solderless con­nectors for copper wires, and secure the base to the electrical box.
o Affix the wiring sticker (in the CT230
box) to the base.
p Connect the slave power bases
together as per FIGURE 1.
q Once installation and wiring is com-
plete, mount the CT230 interface: a) Align the bracket tabs of the
CT230 with the holes located on top of the power base.
b) Secure the CT230 interface using the screw (captive).
3. Installation
Turn off power to the heating system at the main power panel to avoid electrical shock.
Installation should be carried out by an electrician.
3.1 Wiring Guidelines
• The wire distance between the master thermo­stat and slave unit should not exceed 500 ft. (150 m).
• The floor sensor cable should not exceed 200 ft. (60 m).
• A 3-wire 20 AWG cable is recommended.
FIGURE 1
Connections
r Switch all slave power bases to STANDBY by sliding the protective door upwards
and positioning the switch to STANDBY. Install and connect the master unit (see 3.3).

3.3 Master Thermostat - Installation and Wiring
WARNING: Make sure all slave units are in STANDBY mode.
Required parts: TH113-A/F/AF (12VDC),
TH114-A/F/AF (12VDC), TH115-A/F/AF (12VDC) or TH116-A/F/AF (12VDC)
Location: anywhere easily accessible to users.
Temperature control: AF (ambient with floor limit) / A (ambient)
Install the master thermostat in the controlled area.
Choose a location about 5 ft. above the floor in an area where the tempera­ture is stable.
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (top of staircase, air outlet), dead air spots (behind a door), direct sunlight or concealed chimneys or stove pipes.
Temperature control: F (floor)
Can be installed anywhere.
s Wire the 12 VDC base to the nearest slave unit.
The floor sensor must be installed in an area where average temperature can be read. The cable must follow the wall down to the floor and must not cross any heater wires or be directly on or adjacent to a heating wire. For maximum performance, the sensor probe should be centered between the wires in the mat (max. 80°C).
t Push the excess wire into the wall, secure the base using the provided screws
and wall anchors, and install the TH11x thermostat onto the base.
u Once the thermostat is installed, return power to heating system and switch all
slave units and the master thermostat to ON.

3.4 Slave Units - GFCI Test
We recommend you test the GFCI immediately after installing the thermostat, and once a month thereafter to ensure it is operating properly.
If the test warning light comes ON during normal operation, cut power to heating system from the main power panel and verify the installation.
n Slide the protective door upwards and make sure the switch is ON. o Press TEST.
The test is successful if the TEST warning light is ON and power is cut off.
If the test fails (first installation test):
a. Verify installation b. Check the load wires c. Once you've identified the problem, run the GFCI test again
If the test fails (monthly maintenance):
a. Cut power to heating system from the main power panel and call customer
service
p When the test is successful, reset the slave unit by switching from ON to
STANDBY then back to ON.
q Repeat steps 1 to 3 for all slave units.
