1. Safety information
1.1 Installation and commissioning
When laying wires, please ensure that no damage occurs to any of the constructional
fire safety measures presented in the building.
The controller must not be installed in rooms where easily inflammable gas mixtures are
present or may occur.
The permissible environmental conditions can’t be exceeded at the site of installation.
Before connecting the device, make sure that the energy supply matches the
specifications that controller requires.
All devices connected to the controller must conform to the technical specifications of
the controller.
All operations on an open controller are only to be conducted cleared from the power
supply. All safety regulations for working on the power supply are valid.
Connecting and /or all operations that require opening the collector (e.g. changing the
fuse) are only conducted by specialists.

1500W or 3000W/4000W of electrical heater should be remarked in the purchased
order
Dimension of display: 120*120*23mm
Dimension of controller board with 1500W output: 200*140*43mm
Dimension of controller board with 3000W/4000W output: 218*165*55mm
Note: there are 4 inputs for NTC10K, B=3950 temperature sensor, but only 2 sensors
are included in the standard delivery list; the other two should be purchased separately by
customer if necessary.
2.2 Delivery list
1 * SR91 controller
1 * accessory bag
1 * user manual
1 * PT1000 temperature sensor (φ6*50mm,cable length 1.5meter)
2 * NTC10K temperature sensor (φ6*50mm,cable length 3meter)
1 *10A power cable ( Note: controller for 3000W electrical heater has no power cable
delivered, user should prepare a cable of 2.5mm2)
3. Installation
Note: The unit must only be located in the dry interior rooms. Please separate
routing of sensor wires and mains wires. Make sure the controller as well as the system is
not exposed to strong electromagnetic fields. For control 3000W/4000W electrical heaters,
an extra switch should be installed, and 2.5mm2cable should be used to connect electrical
heater to the terminals of controller.
3.1 Mounting the display of controller
►Choose a suitable place
►Mark the position of hole( Note that the positive and negative directions)
►Drill the fixing hole, insert the expansion screw
►Fix the hanging plate by using screw.
►Press the display unit on the hanging plate.
Remove the display unit
► Use a flat screwdriver to pry open the top of the display
► Remove the display unit upward and take it out.
