Installation Instructions

1. Pre-Installation - Control Location

a)

The TC-150 control must be installed inside the
steam room. For convenience the recommended
height from the floor is four feet. Provide a 1½” hole
in the wall at this location (see Figure 1).

IMPORTANT: Multi-conductor cable must be
installed so that the end will not be buried inside the
wall. The unit will not operate unless the control is
installed.

2. Electrical Rough-in

a)

Remove the multi-conductor cable from the control
packing box. Carefully route the multi-conductor
control cable from the steam generator to the
TC-150 located inside the steamroom (see Figure

2). Route multi-conductor cable through a ¾”
conduit to protect the cable from damage and to
facilitate replacement if necessary.

Cleaning Instructions: Use a damp cloth and mild soap.
Do NOT use abrasive cleaners which might scratch the
surface or the base of the control.

IMPORTANT: Run the
Control Cable through
a ¾” conduit.

3. Control and Cable Installation

a)

Locate the previously installed cable and black
plastic strain relief clamp which is in the control
packing box. Locate the knock-out on the steam
generator for the control cable (see Figure 2).

b)

Place strain relief around cable about seven inches
from the end and insert into the hole. Remove the
protective covering labeled, “Remove before
installation,” from the modular jack found on the PC
board.

c)

If TC-150 is used in conjunction with the optional
TC-125 control or Dual System, plug the splitter
into the modular jack, this will allow two cables to
be plugged into the PC board (see Figure 2).

IMPORTANT: When used with the Optional
TC-125 control or Dual System, the Steamist
supplied splitter must be used. Locally purchased
telephone splitters will NOT work and void the
warranty.

d)

Remove the protective cap from the
multi-conductor cable plug. Connect the cable to
the modular jack.

e)

Close and secure generator cover.

f)

Locate Telco Jack at female coupler, on back of the
TC-150 control. Remove the protective covering
labeled “Remove before Installation”. Remove
protective cap from cable and plug into jack.
Check that the orientation of the plug properly
aligns with the jack. A snap will indicate the plug is
installed correctly (see Figure 2).

WARNING: Test the control for operation before
continuing on to the next step.
