Placement of the control panel
Where possible, placement of the control panel outside the sauna
room is recommended due to lower ambient temperatures.
The control panel may be placed inside a Tylö sauna room or
a self-built sauna room with correct ventilation which operates
according to Tylö-recommended ventilation (natural ventilation
principle). Read the sections titled, Positioning the intake vent and
Positioning the outlet vent in these instructions. The control panel
must always be placed outside the sauna cabin if these require-
ments are not met. If installing the control panel inside the sauna
cabin, it should be positioned with regard to safety distances and
installation height, see Fig 6.
WARNING! With incorrect ventilation, a control
panel fi tted inside the sauna cabin may be expo-
sed to excessive temperatures, which can cause
the control panel to become deformed or defecti-
ve. The ambient temperature around the control
panel should never exceed 80°C.

Positioning the inlet vent
Install the inlet vent straight through the wall under the centreline
of the heater.
Vent size for a family sauna approx. 125 cm².
The air circulation from the door must concord with the hot air
circulation from the heater.

Positioning the outlet vent
DANGER! The air exhaust vent must not lead out-
doors. This could cause the ventilation direction
to be reversed, which may negatively aff ect the
heater temperature cut-out.
DANGER! Any gap above the sauna ceiling
should not be sealed without leaving at least one
vent hole on the same wall as the sauna door!
Position the outlet vent
•
at the maximum possible distance from the air intake vent,
e.g. diagonally (see Figure 7).
•
high on the wall or in the ceiling (see Figure 7).
•
so that it vents into the space that the door and air intake
vent open into.
The outlet vent must have the same area as the inlet vent.
Ensure that the outlet vent is open.
Mechanical ventilation is not recommended due to the risk of poor
air exchange, which can negatively aff ect the heater temperature
cut-out.
INSTALLATION
Sauna heater installation
It is easiest to prepare for installation with the heater lying down.
To install the heater:
1.
Lay the heater down with the front facing upwards. Install the
knob (see Figure 8).
2.
Undo the screws and open the cover (see Figure 8).
Figure 8: Opening/closing the cover
WARNING! Always check that the heater is con-
nected to the correct main/phase voltage!
Connect the heater using standard wiring (Fk or EKK) approved
for fi xed installation.
Any single wires (Fk) must be protected in electrical conduits (VP)
to the heater.
3.
Connect the electrical cable (see Figure 9) according to the
wiring diagram (see Figure 17).
