Controllers - general
Positioning
Controllers must be installed in shaded and clean locations. They should be tted out of reach
of children (suggested height 1.5 m). The Compact and Bathroom Deluxe Controllers are
water resistant, however, durability is improved when positioned outside the shower recess or
at least 400 mm above the highest part of a sink, basin or bath.
Water controller cables
Water controllers operate at extra low voltage (12 Volts DC) which is supplied from the water
heater. Controllers come with 15 m of electrical cable. The appliance end of the controller
cables are tted with spade terminals.
Extension cabling is available as an accessory from Rinnai. Alternatively, a two core sheathed
(double insulated) ex with a minimum cross sectional area of 0.5 mm
2
may be used.
Maximum individual cable runs:
One controller = 100 m
Two controllers = 50 m (per controller)
Three or more controllers = 20 m (per controller)
Water controller cables are not polarity sensitive.
