4. General
The THAT040E thermostat is designed to operate a heating device up to 9A at a
controlled temperature.
The heating device is simply plugged into the thermostat and the desired temperature is
set. The LCD
display shows both the actual temperature at the sensor and the desired set
temperature.
The sensor measures the temperature in the first 10mm of the tip, and it is very
important to locate the
sensor as close as possible to the area you wish to heat. For example for reptiles sensor
location should be
at floor level; for birds sensor location should be at normal roosting height, and for plant
propagation the
sensor should be put into the soil at root depth.
Once the unit is turned on with the heater plugged in and the desired temperature set,
you will notice the
sensor temperature will start to increase until it reaches the set temperature. At this
stage, the thermostat
will maintain the set and sensor temperatures within 1 degree C.
5. Operations Instructions
•
Plug heater into the thermostat, then plug thermostat into power point and turn on.
•
When the unit is plugged in, a “beep” sound will be heard.
•
To change the set temperature, press the “set” button. The set display will start to
blink. Press the
“up” or “down” button until the desired set temperature is displayed. Press the “set”
button again to
confirm. After 10 seconds, the set temperature will be locked in. To set a new
temperature, repeat the
above steps. The “up” and “down” buttons do not work, if the “set” button is not pressed
first.
•
“E1” will be displayed when the cord of the sensor (pin) is short circuited. “E2” will be
displayed when
the cord of the sensor (pin) is broken. Power supply to the outlet will stop.
•
Before removing plug from thermostat, always turn off power at the power point.
