Before you begin, ensure the power to your heater is switched off, and if necessary, drain the system below the heater tapping.
To install the immersion controller, take a look at your heater’s layout. Heater manufacturers generally provide a tapping for insertion of the immersion controllers’ sensing element. This tapping is located in a representative point where typical heater water temperature can be measured. Depending on model, the element is either inserted in an immersion well or through a bulb compression fitting. Where the tapping is on the side of the tank unit, mount the immersion controller horizontally. If the tapping is on top of the unit, mount the immersion controller vertically. The sensing bulb should fit tightly to the immersion well for good thermal response. The bulb should be inserted until it rests against the bottom of the well, and then hold it there while tightening the tubing clamp.
Fill the system, making sure that the well is screwed in tightly enough to prevent leakage. Here is an example of wiring your immersion controller to a gas system (show photo above). Ensure all wiring is done in accordance with applicable codes, ordinance and regulations. Use a disconnect device and overload protection to assure safe installation complying with local and national codes.
To adjust the control point to correspond with the heater manufacturer’s recommendations, insert a screwdriver in the slotted screw type head located beneath the window in the cover. Turn the scale to the desired control point.
By following these instructions, you can effectively install and optimize the performance of your Tempro immersion heater controller, ensuring efficient and accurate temperature control for your specific heating needs.
