Warnings
Important Warning Instructions
• The temperature sensor must be installed in order to read
the water temperature properly. Improper installation of
the sensor can cause overheating or insufficient heating of
the water. The spa manufacturer must verify if the
temperature measured by the sensor is the same as the
actual water temperature and that the sensor cannot be
affected by external conditions (ex: air temperature).
• This control is not suitable and cannot be used for gas
heater applications.
• This control must always be connected to a circuit
protected by a ground fault interrupter.
• Install the control on a solid surface to minimize mechanical
vibrations.
• The power input cable should always be secured in place
with a proper strain relief.
• A notice should be installed by the manufacturer on the
finished product to notify the end user to always check the
water temperature with his hand before entering the water
so as to prevent burns and other injuries which may result
from improper water temperatures.
• This control should not be installed in the proximity of
highly flammable materials.
• This control is not protected against water infiltration. It
should not be installed in a location or in a manner which
could lead to contact with water.
• The electrical load of connections to this control must not
exceed the ratings specified by Spa Builders Systems Group
Inc. Failure to ensure compliance with proper electrical load
specifications may cause hazardous operating conditions
and/or decreased the life span of the control.

Warnings
Important Warning Instructions
• Use copper wiring only.
• This control is certified as a component only. The finished
product which will incorporate this control should be
certified by the proper agency as a finished product. In no
circumstances should the fact that the control is certified as
component be considered sufficient for the finished product
to comply with certification requirements. The manufacturer
is solely responsible for ensuring that the finished product
complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
• Ambient air temperature in the vicinity of the control
location should not exceed the maximum temperature
rating specified by Spa Builders Systems Group Inc.
• The spa elements, containing water exposed to cold air
(piping, pumps, valves, etc.) must be approximately at the
same ambient temperature as the power module of the
control to prevent adequately from water freezing.
• This control should be serviced by qualify personnel only.
• If a fuse must be replaced, it should be replaced only with a
fuse of the same type and rating.
• The control must not be altered or modified in any way.
• Do not connect any equipment to this control other than
equipment and or accessories that are specified or approved
by Spa Builders Systems Group Inc. for each output.
• This control should always be installed with the proper orientation as per the specifications provided by Spa Builders
Systems Group Inc.
• Do not create any opening in the control.
• Do not extend temperature sensor cables.
SC-CF-SBD Owner’s Manual4
Warnings
Important Warning Instructions
• This control must be installed as specified in the Spa
Builders Systems Group Inc. product certification report.
• It is possible that an output fail in the "on" position.
Make sure that this cannot create any hazard.
• The spa must comply with the ‘kinetic heating test’
described in UL1563 standard section 47.2.: "While at the
maximum water temperature from the water temperature
test described in 46.1, a unit, covered as specified in 47.2.2,
shall be operated circulating water at the maximum flow
rate without the heater operating until thermal equilibrium
as defined in 45.8 is attained or until ultimate results occur.
Any blower shall not be operating and any air induction
control shall be closed. A blower that heats the water, if
provided, shall be operated. The results are acceptable if
the water at any tub inlet does not exceed 50°C (122°F)".
• Any ventilation openings on the pack must be free from
obstructions that could limit the ventilation flow rate.
• The user manual must specify that if the keypad is physically
damaged, the end user must not use the finished product
and the keypad should be replaced immediately.
• Do not submerge the temperature probe completely in
water. Only the stainless steel portion should be in contact
with water.
• This product is provided with a pre-calibrated pressure
switch. Make sure that the pressure switch setting is
adequate for your application.
• Should you have any questions with respect to any of the
foregoing or the reference materials mentioned herein,
please do not hesitate to contact us.

control is to cut a hole directly on the edge of the spa.
The hole must be a 1" by 3
5/8 " rectangle to allow the keypad box
to slide into position.
The keypad should be installed directly on the spa (or very close)
for it to be easily reached by the user.
