WARNING WARNING

Before installing and operating this product,the
owner and/or installer must read, understand and
follow these instructions and keep them handy for
future reference. If these instructions are not fol­lowed, the warranty will be considered null and
void and the manufacturer deems no further re­sponsibility for this product. Moreover, the fol-

lowing instructions must be adhered to in
order to avoid personal injuries or proper­ty damages,serious injuries and potential­ly fatal electric shocks. All electric connections

must be made by a qualied electrician, accord­ing to the electrical and building codes effective
in your region. Do NOT connect this product to
a supply source other than 120 VAC, 208 VAC or
240 VAC, and do not exceed the specied load
limits. Protect the heating system with the appro­priate circuit breaker or fuse. You must regularly
clean dirt accumulations on or in the thermostat.
Do NOT use uid to clean thermostat air vents. Do
NOT use where exposed to water. Suitable for in­sulated walls.

1. Description

The TSSHC-3NPSBFS-16A non programmable electronic ther­mostat can be used to control ENERJOY radiant ceiling pan­els or heating oors with electrical current − with a resistive load

− ranging from 0 A to 16 A at 120/208/240 VAC. It has an easy
user interface. It keeps the temperature of a room (Ambient
mode) and a oor (Floor mode) at a requested set point with a
high degree of accuracy.

Floor Mode (factory setting)

This control method is ideal in areas where you want a hot oor
at any time and when the temperature of the ambient air can be
high without causing discomfort. For example, in a bathroom.

Ambient Mode (you only have to press down the A/F button to
switch from one mode to the other)

This control method is ideal when you want a stable ambi ent air
temperature (without uctuation). Usually, this mode is used in
large and often occupied rooms where temperature variations
can be uncomfortable. For example, in a kitchen, a living room
or a bedroom.

Some factors cause variations in ambient air temperature. They
include large windows (heat losses or gains due to out side tem­perature) and other heat sources such as a central heating sys­tem, a replace, etc. In all these cases, the Ambi ent mode will
ensure a uniform temperature.

This Thermostat is not compatible with the following
installations:

• electrical current higher than 16 A with a resistive load
(3840 W @ 240 VAC, 3475 W @ 208 VAC and 1920 W @
120 VAC);

• inductive load (presence of a contactor or relay); and

• central heating system.

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done
by qualied person(s) in accordance with all applica­ble State/Country codes and standards.

• Parts supplied:

• one (1) thermostat;

• two (2) mounting screws;

• four (4) solderless connectors suitable for copper wires; and

• one (1) oor sensor.

2. Installation

Thermostat selection and sensor location

The preferred thermostat location is on an inside wall four feet
(1.2m) above the oor, in a conveniently accessed locations
such as next to the light switch, and away from random temper­ature impacts detailed in the examples that follow.

Do not install the thermostat in a location where temperature
measurements could be altered. For example:

• close to a window, on an external wall, or close to a door
leading outside;

• exposed directly to the light or heat of the Sun, a lamp, a
replace or any other heat source;

• close or in front of an air outlet;

• close to concealed ducts or a chimney; and

• in a location with poor air ow (e.g. behind a door), or with

frequent air drafts (e.g. head of stairs).

To install the sensor, refer to the installation guide of your heat­ing oor.

Thermostat mounting and connection

1.

Cut off power supply on lead wires at the electrical

panel in order to avoid any risk of electric shock.

2. Ensure that the air vents of the thermostat are clean and clear

of any obstruction.

3. Using a screwdriver, loosen the screw retaining the mount ing

base and front part of the thermostat. Remove the front part
of the thermostat from the mounting base by tilting it upward.

4. Align and secure the mounting base to the connection box

using the two screws supplied.

5. Route wires coming from the wall through the hole of the

mounting base and make the required connections using
the “Four-wire installation” gure, and using the supplied
solderless connectors. A pair of wires (black) must be con­nected to the power source (120-208-240 VAC) and an other
pair (yellow) must be connected to the heating cable (refer to
the drawings displayed on the back of the thermo stat). For
connections with aluminum wires, you must use CO/ALR

connectors. Please note that thermostat wires do not have
polarity, meaning that any wire can be connected to the other.
Then, install the oor temperature sensor.

Four-wire installation

6. Reinstall the front part of the thermostat on the mounting

base and tighten the screw at the bottom of the unit.

7. Turn on the power.

8. Set the thermostat to the desired setting (see the follow ing

section).

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done
by qualied person(s) in accordance with all applica­ble State/Country codes and standards.
