Electrical Installation Instructions
Steambath Generator
Models: SM-46 and SM-79
The Steamist “SM” Generator operates with one or two controls
appropriately located inside and/or outside the steamroom. It’s
small enough in size to be tucked away using very little space in
a vanity, closet, basement, or an insulated attic, but large enough
to provide steam for most residential baths.
The Steamist “SM” Steambath Generator comes factory-
assembled, carefully wired and tested.
NOTE: The TC-110, TC-125, TC-135, TC-150, DSC-425, and
DSP Controls are designed to work with all Steamist “SM”
Generators.
1.
Pre-Installation
a) Proper electrical supply (208 or 240 Volt): See rating
label on Steam Generator and Chart on back page.
Determine proper size of wire, voltage, amperage, and
phase for the Steam Generator. Only UL rated 90°C
wire can be used.
b) Dedicated overcurrent protection device, such as an
In-line fuse/circuit breaker required: Fuse/circuit breaker
to be installed must be sized in accordance with chart
on back page. Do NOT install a GFI (Ground Fault
Interrupter) to this equipment (per article 210-8 in the
National Electric Code).
c) Route power supply cable to the location where the
Steam Generator will be installed (before walls are
closed).
2.
Electrical Rough-in
a) At this time read through the installation instructions for
the selected control(s).
b) Route appropriate power cable to the location the Steam
Generator will be installed. If receptacle is desired,
mount the box for the receptacle near the location of the
Steam Generator (see Figure 3: Typical Installation).
NOTE: The plug and receptacle require a rating of no
less than 250V and proper amperage. Refer to chart on
page 4 for amperage rating.
After the walls are complete, the Steam Generator and
Control can be wired.

Steam Generator Electrical Installation
WARNING:
All power to the Steam Generator must be
turned
off.
IMPORTANT: The Dual Kilowatt Switch MUST be set to
the proper kilowatt rating in accordance with the
Generator Sizing Guide and Generator Specification
Chart (back page).
a) Remove the two screws holding the electrical
access cover and remove cover.
b) Locate the supply line knockout. Mount proper
strain relief into knockout hole (see Figure 2:
Internal Electrical Connections).
c) Strip back power cable’s outer insulation jacket
eight inches and insert into steam generator. Strip
back insulation ½" from the three (3) incoming
wires (two power and one ground).
d) Connect incoming ground wire to floating green
pigtail labeled “GND.”
CAUTION: Be sure the ground wire does not
come in contact with a live electrical part.
e) Connect incoming power to floating black pigtail
leads labeled “L1” and “L2.” (see Figure 2: Internal
Electrical Connections).
f) The Steam Generator is ready for operation once
the installation of the controls is completed (refer to
separate Installation and Operating Instructions).
