REMOTE DISPLAY PANE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
DESCRIPTION
The Raychem ECW-GF-DP is a remote display panel only for the
Raychem ECW-GF electronic controller. The ECW-GF-DP allows
remote monitoring of the heating cable system operation. The
display has LED indicators which signal communication loss to the
controller, high/low temperature alarm, and temperature sensor
failure. The display also has buttons to test and reset the ground-
fault sensor. The display may be located up to 328 feet (100 m)
from the ECW-GF controller.
The ECW-GF-DP remote display panel must be installed in
conjunction with the ECW-GF controller. Refer to the ECW-GF
installation instructions (H58339) for further details.
For technical support, call Pentair Thermal Management at
(800) 545-6258.
TOOLS REQUIRED
• Large slotted screwdriver • Needle nose pliers
• Small slotted screwdriver • Wire strippers
ADDITIONAL MATERIALS REQUIRED
• Duplex junction box
• 1/2 inch conduit
• Communication cable: 8 conductor 22 AWG shielded

• Prepare communication cable by
stripping 1/4 in of insulation from
each wire.
• Install wires according to Steps 4
and 5.
• Connect the
communication cable
to the ECW-GF-DP.
• Install plastic cover over
ECW-GF-DP Remote
Display Panel.
• Connect the communication cable to
the ECW-GF controller.
• Terminate cable shield in the SH
position on the J5 (Thermistor)
terminal block.
• Stow wires and install ECW-GF-DP in
duplex junction box.
• Secure with screws supplied.
• Multiple heating cable circuits
may be monitored by mounting the

Normal Operation
The Green LED shows that the display is
connected to the ECW-GF controller and the
controller is powered.
Communication Error
If the Green LED is blinking verify that the wiring
to the display and controller are correct.
Ground-Fault Error
If the Red LED is blinking, the system has a
ground-fault error. Check the ECW-GF controller
for the error code on the display. Press the Reset
button once the ground-fault error has been
corrected.
Ground-Fault Test
To test the ground-fault circuitry, press and hold
the Test button, if the circuit passes, the Amber
LED will blink rapidly.
System Alarm
If the Red and Amber LEDs are blinking
alternately, the heating cable system is in
alarm. (Temperature sensor failure or high/
low temperature alarm.) Check the ECW-GF
controller for the displayed error.
