Sea Frost DC 5000 Thermostat Control Panel Location, Electrical Junction BOX

Page 20

THERMOSTAT CONTROL PANEL LOCATION

The Thermostat Control Panel should be outside the box in order to protect it and to allow observation of the indicator lamp. The length of the sensing tube dictates the location, as it must reach the plate. The maximum length of this tube is 40" (180 mm.) (The sensing tube must be attached to the refrigerator plate in a multiple plate system.) Mount the Thermostat in a location where the wires and sensing tube can be led. Use the cut out template packed with the Thermostat Control Panel. The harness on the Thermostat Control Panel may be spliced with 16-gauge wire.

ELECTRICAL JUNCTION BOX

The DC 5000 is equipped with a 4' (105 cm.) harness that is to connect to the Electrical Junction Box. Do not splice this harness. Position the Electrical Junction Box to allow proper routing of the harness. If the electrical junction box is closer than 4 feet, shorten the harness.

Large battery supply cables, (See wire sizes) the thermostat control harness, and water pump harness will all connect at the electrical junction box.
