Installation Instructions
1.
Pre-Installation - Control Location
a) The TSC-250 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) Locate the multi-conductor cable. Carefully route the
multi-conductor control cable from the steam generator
to the TSC-250 located inside the steamroom (see
Figure 1). Route multi-conductor cable through a ¾"
conduit to protect the cable from damage and to
facilitate replacement if necessary.
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 knockout on the steam generator for the
control cable (see Figure 3).
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) Remove the protective cap from the multi-conductor
cable plug. Connect the cable to the modular jack.
d) Close and secure generator cover.
e) Locate Telco Jack at female coupler, on back of the
TSC-250 control. Remove the protective covering
labeled “Remove Before Installation”. Remove protec-
tive 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 3).
IMPORTANT: Test the control for operation before
continuing on to the next step.
f) Peel adhesive liner from back of the control. Apply the
control to the wall. Press firmly and hold for a few
seconds.
g) After the control is in place, apply silicone (supplied)
around the control to form a watertight seal (see Figure
2).
