Mounting your RAPT Temperature Controller into your Brewery
The RAPT Temperature Controller offers a number of different mounting options offering the
versality to be able to change how to controller is mounted depending on what you are using the
controller for.
The controller is provided as standard with a mounting plate which is installed onto the controller
out of the box. This mounting plate can be removed if you would instead prefer to mount the
controller onto the wall for example.
Removing the Mounting Plate
To remove the mounting plate, slide the mounting plate down towards the bottom of the controller.
Wall Mounting Option 1
If you prefer to mount the RAPT temperature controller to your wall however you did not want to
damage the wall by screwing into it you can attach the mounting plate to the wall using strong
double-sided tape and then slide the RAPT temperature controller onto the mounting plate to
secure it.
Wall Mounting Option 2
Screw two screws into the wall using the following template as a guide. Then simply hook the
controller onto the screws using the mounting points provided on the back of the controller.
RAPT Temperature Controller Drill Mounting Template

Wall Mounting Option 3
Unscrew the hanging hook and rotate it 180 degrees, retighten and attach the controller to the wall
using this hanging hook. This can be mounted to your wall using a screw or hanging the controller
onto a hook which is already mounted on your wall for example.
Wall Mounting Option 4
Another option for mounting the RAPT Temperature Controller onto a wall is to drill a screw through
the recessed holes below the front face plate which continue all the way through to the two
mounting holes at the back of the controller.
These holes can be identified by running your finger along the face plate in the area shown below.
You can then either peel away the face plate and use an 8G x 60mm countersunk screw or you can
drill straight through the face plate using an 8G x 60mm or 10G x 60mm countersunk screw as
shown below:

RAPT Temperature Controller Instruction Manual
Page 11 of 17 www.KegLand.com.au Last Updated 24/05/2022 12:17 PM
This is designed for an 8G screw, however 10G will also work but it will sit a little proud on the face
of the controller.
Vertical Bench/Panel Mounting
WARNING: Ensure the temperature controller is unplugged from the wall socket before changing
the orientation of the cables.
If you want to neatly mount the RAPT Temperature controller vertically onto your bench or into a
custom designed cabinet/panel for example, the orientation of the cables can be quickly and easily
rearranged. To achieve this, undo the 4 screws which hold the front and back housings together and
then pull the two housings apart.
Unscrew the two screws which hold the slotted blanking plate to the housing and remove the
slotted blanking plate.

RAPT Temperature Controller Instruction Manual
Page 12 of 17 www.KegLand.com.au Last Updated 24/05/2022 12:17 PM
Move the cable glands to the back of the unit and secure in place with the slotted blanking plate,
then secure the slotted blanking plate to the housing using the two screws. Then reassemble the
front and back housings and secure with screws.
You can then custom design your own panel or cabinet to mount this temperature controller into
with the outlets and wiring now exiting out the back of the controller allowing for a very neat
mounting arrangement.
Alternatively, if you want to mount this on your bench top or on top of your fermentation chamber
you can use the mounting plate as a stand to keep the temperature controller in an upright position.
Simply slide the temperature controller housing onto the guides on the mounting plate as shown to
the right.
