INTRODUCTION
The OMEGALUX™ CPP Series Percentage Controller is a manually adjustable
control which provides continuously variable selection of average heater power
ranging from 5% to 100%. The controller varies the proportion of “off” and “on”
time of the heater power. Thermal characteristics of the heated item will
determine the setting of the manually adjustable controller knob. The
controller does not use a temperature sensor and therefore satisfactory
operation requires occasional supervision under changing load conditions.
SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL
The symbol above is used to call your attention
to instructions concerning your personal safety.
It points out important safety precautions. It

INSTALLATION / OPERATING INSTRUCTIONSSPECIFICATIONS AND DRAWINGS
Read and understand
this entire manual before
operating this controller.
TP0 portable time percentage dial temperature controllers
are designed for temporary use applications and must be
monitored while in operation.
Step 1:
Plug heater into the controller’s output receptacle.
Step 2:
Plug the controller into an approved power source using the Input power cord.
Step 3:
Rotate controller knob to the percentage set-point which will produce the desired
temperature (see Note A).
VOLTAGE:
120VAC; 240VAC
Part Number Volts Amps Range
CPP941 120 15 5 to 100%
CPP942 240 15 5 to 100%

Step 4:
Continue to monitor the controllers performance while in use (see Note B).
Note A:
The time percentage dial controller varies the proportion (length) of time
the heater is in the “on” or “off” heating mode. The heating application will
determine the actual percentage set-point required.
Note B:
The controller does not use a temperature sensor and therefore satisfactory
operation requires occasional supervision under changing load conditions.

Controller does not function
1. Check fuse:
Unplug the unit from its power source. Remove the fuse located under cap on
front of controller and check its continuity. If the fuse is defective, replace it with
an ABC 15 amp fuse. Fuses may be obtained from most electrical supply houses.
2. Check heater:
Unplug heater from controller and check for continuity. Replace heater if there is
no continuity.
3. Check power source:
Using a voltmeter, test the power source and assure correct voltage is present.
