Installation Instructions

1. Pre-Installation - Control Location

The TSC-450 Control must be installed inside the steam
room. For convenience the recommended height from the
floor is four feet. If a TSSH is also installed we recom­mend a height of 4½" feet when used for both steam and
shower. 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

2. Electrical Rough-in

Remove the multi-conductor cable from the control
packing box. Carefully route the multi-conductor control
cable from the steam generator to the TSC-450 located
inside the steamroom (see Figure 1). Route multi­conductor cable through a ¾" conduit to protect the cable
from damage and to facilitate replacement if necessary.

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 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) 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-450 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).
WARNING: Test the control for operation before

continuing on to the next step.
