Steam Bath Important Safety Instructions (Publication No. 199)

This publication includes a Warning label that the contractor must install on the wall near the entrance to the steam room in a highly visible location. This label and its additional safety information are packaged with the generator in the envelope containing the installation instructions. If it is lost or missing, contact Steamist (201-933-0700) for a replacement Publication No. 199. This publication along with all documents must be left with the owner.

NOTE: A “TSC” series control is required to operate the "TSG" generator.
The Steamist “TSG” Generator operates with only “TSC” series controls mounted inside and an optional TSX or TSR remote control located outside the steam room. It’s small enough in size to be tucked away using very little space in a vanity, closet, or basement, but large enough to provide steam for most residential baths.
The Steamist “TSG” Steambath Generator comes factory assembled, carefully wired, and tested.

Pre-Installation

• Proper electrical supply (208 or 240 Volt): See rating label on Steam Generator and Chart on page 4. Determine proper size of wire, voltage, amperage, and phase for the Steam Generator. 90°C copper wire is required for generator connection.
• In-line fuse/circuit breaker required: Fuse/circuit breaker to be installed must be sized in accordance with the chart on the back page. Do NOT install a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) to this equipment (per article 210-8 in the National Electric Code).
• Route power supply cable to the location where the Steam Generator will be installed (before walls are closed).

Electrical Rough-in

Route appropriate power cable to the location the Steam Generator will be installed. If a receptacle is desired, mount the box for the receptacle near the location of the Steam Generator.
NOTE: The plug and receptacle require a rating of no less than 250V and proper amperage. Refer to the chart on page 4 for amperage rating.
After the walls are complete, the Steam Generator and Control can be wired.

Steam Generator Electrical Installation

WARNING: All power to the Steam Generator must be turned off.

1. Remove the two screws holding the electrical access cover and remove cover.
2. Locate the supply line knockout. Mount proper strain relief into knockout hole.
3. Strip back power cable’s outer insulation jacket eight inches and insert into Steam Generator. Strip back insulation ½" from the three (3) incoming wires (two power and one ground).
4. Insert ground wire into grounding lug located on the right side of the electrical compartment and secure.
   CAUTION: Be sure the ground wire does not come in contact with a live electrical part.
5. Locate the terminal block in the upper portion of the electrical compartment. Insert power wires into the power lugs on the front of the terminal block and secure.

Optional Auto Drain Valve Connection

• Open knockout for Auto Drain Valve conduit connection.
• Route flexible conduit from valve to knockout and secure.

• Connect two wires from valve to the auto DRAIN connection J11 on the printed circuit board (see Figure 2).

  

IMPORTANT: The warranty of this product is voided if it is used in a commercial application or for anything other than a residential steambath installation. All electrical connections must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with Local and National Electric Codes.

Ganging Multiple Steam Generators

IMPORTANT: When ganging 2 to 4 steam generators together, an additional 3199 steam head and 5370 control cable must be purchased for each additional generator.

• Locate the Control Cable knockout at the top of the steam generator. Mount proper strain relief into knockout hole.
• Route 5370 control cable from any one of the 3 Modular Jacks located on the circuit board to the steam generator to be ganged (see Figure 3).
• Set DIP Switches on each additional Steam Generator's main PCB as shown in the Gangable Generators chart (see Figure 3).
