SAFETY SUMMARY

All safety related regulations, local codes and instructions that appear in the

manual or on equipment must be observed to ensure personal safety and to

prevent damage to either the instrument or equipment connected to it. If

equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the

protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Do not use the TSC to directly command motors, valves, or other actuators

not equipped with safeguards. To do so, can be potentially harmful to persons

or equipment in the event of a fault to the unit. An independent and redundant

temperature limit indicator with alarm outputs is strongly recommended. Red

Lion Controls model IMT (thermocouple) or model IMR (RTD) units may be

used for this purpose. The indicators should have input sensors and AC power

feeds independent from other equipment.

INSTALLATION & CONNECTIONS

INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT

The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the maximum

operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the unit near

devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided.

Continuous exposure to direct sunlight may accelerate the aging process of

the bezel. The bezel should be cleaned only with a soft cloth and neutral soap

product. Do NOT use solvents.

Do not use tools of any kind (screwdrivers, pens, pencils, etc.) To operate

the keypad of the unit.

STANDARD UNIT INSTALLATION

Prepare the panel cutout to the dimensions shown in the installation figure.

Remove the panel latch and cardboard sleeve from the unit and discard the

cardboard sleeve. The unit should be installed with the bezel assembly in

place. Insert the unit into the panel cutout. While holding the front of the unit

in place, push the panel latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs of the

panel latch engage in the slots on the case. The panel latch should be engaged

in the farthest forward slots possible. Tighten the screws evenly until the unit

is snug in the panel.

NEMA 4X/IP65 UNIT INSTALLATION

The optional NEMA 4X/IP65 TSC Controller is designed to provide a

watertight seal in panels with a minimum thickness of 1/8 inch. The unit meets

NEMA 4X/IP65 requirements for indoor use, when properly installed. The

units are intended to be mounted into an enclosed panel. Prepare the panel

cutout to the dimensions shown in the installation figure. Carefully apply the

adhesive side of the panel gasket to the panel cutout. Remove the panel latch

and cardboard sleeve from the unit and discard the cardboard sleeve. The unit

should be installed with the bezel assembly in place and the bezel screws

tightened slightly. Insert the unit into the panel cutout. While holding the front

of the unit in place, push the panel latch over the rear of the unit so that the tabs

of the panel latch engage in the slots on the case. The panel latch should be

engaged in the farthest forward slot possible. To achieve a proper seal, tighten

the latch screws evenly until the unit is snug in the panel (torque to

approximately 7 in-lbs [79 N-cm]). Do NOT over-tighten the screws.
