OPERATION

SRL-ADJ and SRP-ADJ series:
This product is equipped with a dial adjustable thermostat temperature controller. A maximum
temperature is identified on the label: 425°F (218°C) or 160°F (71°C). Adjust dial to desired heat output .
To increase temperature output of the heater, turn the adjustable dial in the clockwise direction. To
decrease temperature output of the heater, turn the adjustable dial in the counter clockwise direction.
Note: Ambient conditions will affect the dial's position in which the heater begins to heat. In cooler
temperature conditions the heater will begin to heat at a lower temperature position on the dial
and in warmer temperature conditions the heater will begin to heat at a higher temperature
position on the dial.
It is recommended that a thermometer is attached to the vessel being heated. Adjust the dial until you
achieve the desired temperature.
Note: Changes in ambient conditions or in the temperature of the contents may cause the
temperature to shift over time.
For heating temperature sensitive materials that require a specific set-point or have a tight
tolerance temperature range Use of an external temperature controlling device is required. Select a
temperature controller with the accuracy necessary for the application and is approved for the location
and conditions where the heater is to be used. For lower temperature applications up to 212°F (100°C)
BriskHeat recommends the use of a TC4X Digital Temperature Controller. For higher temperature
applications BriskHeat recommends the use of a TTD Digital Temperature Controller.
Note: If assistance determining a proper temperature controlling device is required for your
application, please contact BriskHeat or your local distributor for application assistance and
product solutions.
Install and connect the external temperature controlling device between the heater and the electrical
source as shown in Figure 3. Install the temperature controlling device in accordance with
manufacturer's installation instructions.
Ensure a grounded connection is provided and if the temperature controlling device does not support a
grounded connection, ensure an approved earth ground source is provided.
Mount the temperature sensor on the surface being heated near the heater. Secure the sensor using
appropriately rated aluminum or fiberglass adhesive tape.
Set the heater's temperature controlling dial to the maximum temperature setting. Adjust heater output
using the external temperature controlling device.
