Introduction

Thank you for choosing Aube’s TH113-R Regulator.

The TH113-R is specially designed to control a floor heating installation, a baseboard or a convector.

The TH113-R regulator operates like a dimmer switch to allow you to easily adjust the amount of power sent to your heating system.

It features an integrated GFCI, and includes a test button and warning light for added security.

This regulator is also equipped with an ON/STANDBY switch making it possible to put it in sleep mode when its use is not required (e.g. summer).

IMPORTANT!

The GFCI and Remote Input options are not available with a low voltage power base. Skip sections 3 and 4.

Control Module Installation

Align the bracket tabs on the regulator with the holes located on the power base.

Control Module

Power Base

This regulator must be installed on a PB112 power base.

The screw cannot be removed completely.

￿Keep the regulator’s air vents clean and free from obstructions.

Operation

The TH113-R regulator operates on perpetual 15-minute heating cycles.

For example, if the dial is set halfway, the system will heat

for 50% of the cycle; it will be ON for 7.5 minutes and OFF

for 7.5 minutes.

Below is a detailed table of the cycle duration based on the dial’s position:

Position and	I	2	4	6	8	10
equivalent %	0%	20%	40%	60%	80%	100%
ON	0 min	3 min	6 min	9 min	12 min	15 min
OFF	15 min	12 min	9 min	6 min	3 min	0 min

NOTE: Depending on the power base used, the heating cycles can be 15 seconds or 15 minutes.

GFCI Test (GA/GB line power base only)

The GFCI monitors the electrical flow for any loss of current; if there is any loss, the thermostat will cut off power to the heating system.

We recommend you test the GFCI immediately after installing the control module, and once a month thereafter to ensure it is operating properly.

To test:

nPress the TEST button:

• Successful: TEST warning light is ON and power to heating system is cut off.

•Unsuccessful: TEST warning light is OFF.

Cut power to heating system from the main power panel and call customer service.

oWhen successful, reset thermostat (STANDBY/ON) to power heating system.

NOTE: If the test warning light comes ON during normal operation, cut power to heating system from the main power panel and have an electrician verify the installation.

Remote Input (line voltage only)

When a remote control interface (Aube CT241 or any other remote control system) is connected to the power base’s remote input and a signal is received, the TH113-R module automatically lowers the percentage by 35% based on the dial’s current position.

The LED lights up to indicate the signal’s presence (except for GA and GB models).

￿The￿￿￿￿TEST￿￿￿￿￿￿button￿￿￿￿￿￿￿can￿￿￿￿be￿used to bypass the signal for a

2-hour period.

The LED goes off to indicate the bypass.

NOTE: When combined with a GA or GB power base, the TEST button is used only for GFCI testing. The percentage is decreased, but the bypass function and indicator are not available.
