WARNING:
This component is an electrical device that must be installed correctly to ensure proper operation and to prevent shock or fire. Read these important warnings and carefully follow all of the installation instructions.
· To minimize the danger of fire from sustained electrical arcing if the heating cable is damaged or improperly installed, and to comply with the requirements of nVent, agency certifications, and national electrical codes, groundfault equipment protection must be used. Arcing may not be stopped by conventional circuit breakers.
· Component approvals and performance are based on the

use of nVentspecified parts only. Do not use substitute parts or vinyl electrical tape.
· The black heating cable core and fibers are conductive and can short. They must be properly insulated and kept dry.
· Damaged bus wires can overheat or short. Do not break bus wire strands when scoring the jacket or core.
· Keep components and heating cable ends dry before and during installation.
· Use only fireresistant insulation materials, such as fiberglass wrap and flameretardant foam.

CAUTION:
HEALTH HAZARD: Prolonged or repeated contact with the sealant in the core sealer may cause skin irritation. Wash hands thoroughly. Overheating or burning the sealant will produce fumes that may cause polymer fume fever. Avoid contamination of cigarettes or tobacco. Consult MSDS VEN 0058 for further information.

AVERTISSEMENT:

MISE EN GARDE:

Ce composant électrique doit être installé correctement pour éviter les risques d'incendie ou de chocs électriques. Lire ces avertissements importants et suivre attentivement toutes les
instructions d'installation.
· Pour réduire le danger d'incendie causé par un arc électrique entretenu, si le câble chauffant est endommagé ou mal installé, et pour respecter les exigences de nVent et celles des codes applicables, il est impératif d'utiliser une protection par disjoncteur différentiel. Les disjoncteurs ordinaires ne sont pas toujours capables de supprimer les arcs électriques.
· Les approbations et les performances des composants sont basées sur l'utilisation des pièces nVent spécifiées seulement. N'utilisez pas de pièces de rechange ou de ruban isolant en vinyle.

· Le noyau et les fibres du câble chauffant noir sont conducteurs et peuvent provoquer un courtcircuit. Ils doivent être correctement isolés et gardés à sec.
· Les fils omnibus endommagés peuvent surchauffer ou subir un courtcircuit.
· Ne brisez jamais les fils omnibus lorsque vous incisez la gaine ou le noyau.
· Maintenez les composants et les extrémités des câbles chauffants secs avant et pendant l'installation.
· Les fils omnibus peuvent provoquer un courtcircuit s'ils se touchent. Les garder à l'écart les uns des autres
· N'utilisez que des matériaux isolants ininflammables, par exemple une gaine de fibre de verre ou de la mousse ignifuge.
· Laissez ces instructions d'installation à l'utilisateur pour qu'il puisse les consulter.

DANGER POUR LA SANTÉ : Le contact prolongé ou répété avec le produit d'étanchéité du noyau peut provoquer une irritation de la peau. Lavezvous les mains soigneusement. La surchauffe et la combustion du produit d'étanchéité produira des vapeurs qui peuvent causer la fièvre des vapeurs de polymères. Évitez la contamination des cigarettes ou du tabac. Consultez la fiche technique santésécurité (FTSS) VEN 0058 pour obtenir de plus amples informations.

This kit uses spring clamp style terminals. Terminals use a steel spring to clamp the wire to provide improved vibration resistance, reduced maintenance and faster installation. To connect wires, firmly insert a slotted screwdriver into the square hole ( 1 ) to open the spring. When fully inserted, the screwdriver will lock into place, allowing you to remove your hand and insert the wire into the round hole ( 2 ). Remove the screwdriver to clamp the wire. The wire is held securely against the bus bar for low contact resistance over time without the need to periodically retighten screws.
· Push screwdriver FIRMLY into square hole.
