INSTALLATION / OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
Read and understand this entire manual
before operating this electric heater.
STEP 1
Remove heater from box. Make visual inspection of heater. Do not use if torn or damaged.
STEP 2
Drum heater should be placed on a clean, dry surface. Open hook and loop closure on heater
and position around drum with adjustable thermo-switch in the upper third of the heater. Heater
should be positioned on drum such that it is covering the drum from the floor to the top of the
drum. Fasten hook and loop closure so heater is tight against the drum with no sagging or
bundling. Cover top of drum with optional insulation cover (sold separately, PN: FGDC55). For
larger diameter drums, up to 24.2" (615mm), optional Insulated expansion strips are available
(sold separately, PN: FGDHSTRIP).
STEP 3 (see page 3 for electrical compliance)
For 120VAC model, plug standard 3-prong plug to appropriate electrical power supply. For
230VAC model, terminate power cord to appropriate electrical power supply. The power cable
consists of three color-coded conductors, black, white, and green. The black wire should be
connected to Line 1. The white wire should be connected to Line 2. The green wire should be
connected to earth ground. The power connections must be adequately rated to electrically
support the voltage and amperage of the heater. The identification label located on the power
cord displays voltage and amperage requirements. Follow all local electrical codes for proper
electrical connections.
STEP 4
Adjust controller to desired setting (See page 6 for programming instructions). Drum
heaters designed for metal drums (FGDH series) can be adjusted 50-450ºF (10-232ºC). Drum
heaters designed for plastic drums (FGPDH series) can be adjusted 50-160ºF (10-71ºC).
