SMC-150 Digital Temperature Control

Installation Instructions

1.

 Pre-Installation - Control Location

a) The SMC-150 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) Remove the multi-conductor cable from the control packing 

box. Carefully route the multi-conductor control cable from 
the steam generator to the SMC-150 located inside the 
steamroom (see Figure 2 and Figure 3). 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) If SMC-150 is used in conjunction with the optional SMC-

120 control or Dual System, plug the splitter into the 
modular jack; this will allow two cables to be plugged into 
the   PC board (see Figure 3).

    IMPORTANT: When used with the optional 

SMC-120 control or Dual System, the Steamist 
supplied splitter must be used. Locally purchased 
telephone splitters will NOT work and void the 
warranty.

d) Remove the protective cap from the multi-

conductor cable plug. Connect the cable to the 
modular jack.

e) Close and secure generator cover.
f)  Locate Telco Jack at female coupler, on back of the 

SMC-150 control. Remove the protective covering
