Aube Technologies TH131-15S User manual

TH131-15S & TH133-15S 400-131-022-A 1/11/06 1/2
NOTE: Even if the following illustrations show the TH131 model only,
they can also apply to the TH133 model.
This user guide covers the following thermostat models:
• TH131-15S A/F/AF
• TH133-15S A/F/AF
The TH131-15S model is designed for residential applications,
whereas the TH133 model is designed for public areas as its controls
are hidden and thus protected against unauthorized access. Both
models can be configured for the following applications:
NOTE: Keep the thermostat's air vents clean and free from obstruc-
tions.
3.1 Application Types
Position the switch, on the back of the control module, according to
your application.
3.2 Minimum and Maximum Limits (TH131-15S only)
Use the two potentiometers on the
back of the control module to set
the minimum and maximum tem-
perature limits. Depending on your
application, the potentiometers
limit the following temperature:
ambient temperature (A)
floor temperature (F or AF)
Use a flat-tip screwdriver to rotate
the potentiometers until the notch
points to the desired temperature
limit.
WARNING
This thermostat provides fast-cycling control and MUST therefore
be used ONLY with solid-state relays. The use of electromechani-
cal relays will result in reduced life expectancy and possibility of
overheating of these devices.

4.1 Temperature Adjustment
TH131-15S
Use the dial on the front of the thermostat to set the desired tempera-
ture.
NOTE: If the dial is placed at a temperature beyond the high or low
temperature limit, the temperature will be maintained at that limit (see
section 3.2).
TH133-15S
Remove the control module from the base and use the dial on the
back of the control module to set the desired temperature.
4.2 On/Off Switch (TH131-15S only)
Use the On/Off switch to turn the thermostat Off when it is not used
(e.g., in the summer).

PB130-024T 400-130-011-A 1/11/06 1/1
This document describes the connections when the PB130-024T
power base is used on any TH13x-15S series thermostat. When
used on a TH13x-15S thermostat, this low-voltage power base must
be connected to the line-voltage load using a solid-state relay (SSR).
The PB130-024T is compatible with most solid-state relays; however,
the following Aube relays are optimized for use with this power base:
• RT850 solid-state relay (SSR)
• RT850T solid-state relay (SSR) with built-in 24-V transformer
nOne (1) power base
oTwo (2) plastic anchors
pTwo (2) mounting screws
For a new installation, choose a location about 1.5 m (5 ft.)
above the floor.
The thermostat must be installed on an inside wall facing the
heating system (except for floor heating systems).
Avoid locations where there are air drafts (top of staircase, air
outlet), dead air spots (behind a door), direct sunlight or
concealed chimney or stove pipes (except for floor heating
systems).
The installation must be carried out by an electrician and must
comply to local electrical codes.
nTurn off power to the heating system at the main electrical panel
to avoid electrical shock.
oWire the base according to your application. See typical wiring
diagrams in sections 4.1 and 4.2.
pFor a floor heating system installation, con-
nect the floor sensor between the S and R ter-
minals.
qSecure the base to the wall using the provided screws and wall
anchors.
rConfigure the switches located on the control module (if any).
Refer to the user guide.
sInstall the control module onto the base.
tApply power to the heating system.
uVerify the installation by checking that the heating system can be
turned On or Off using the thermostat.
