Introduction
Thank you for shopping the Auber WS series temperature controller. We sincerely appreciate
your decision and trust that our controller will meet your expectations in both the quality of the
result and the value of the product. While we are delighted that you may be anxious to operate
the controller, please still spend a few minutes reading through this manual because this will
serve to enhance your experience in the months and years ahead. In particular, we urge you to
read through the safety warnings below. Although this plug-and-play controller is very easy to
use, the process involves high temperature and high wattage appliances and your safety is
paramount.
SAFETY WARNINGS
• This controller is designed only to be used with limited-power device and paring thermal
cutoff protection such as a thermostat or thermal.
• Do not place any objects on the top of controller surface because that may prevent
venting excess heat during its operation.
• The controller can handle a maximum current up to 15 Ampere. For 120 VAC in US or
Canada, this limits the heater power to 1800 watts. Due to its compact size and the
splash proof design for kitchen applications, the controller has a limited ability to dissipate
the heat generated by the internal solid state relay during the initial heat up. The initial full
power heat up process cannot be more than 90 minutes. If you system need take longer
time to warm up, please read Appendix 1 “Managing the heat generated by the
controller”
