The Ag Pad is a multipurpose heating pad with a wide range of uses, from plant propagation to photographic processing.
The below instructions are for setting up your Nu-Klear Ag Pad with the Nu-Klear Thermostat.
AG Pad Setup
Step 1
Place the element on a table or bench, preferably on a heat-insulated surface (e.g., a 25mm polystyrene board).
Step 2
It is recommended that 2 layers of plastic be placed over the element to protect it from sand or grit.
Step 3
Fasten the thermostat to the wall or fixture so it is elevated above the element.
Step 4
Plug in the thermostat and set it to the desired temperature.
Step 5
The copper probe senses the temperature and sends the message to the thermostat.The probe must be placed in the soil or liquid and not on the element, as the temperature of the soil or liquid needs to be read.The element must get warmer than the soil or liquid to set the temperature.
Step 6
It does not matter which side of the element faces up or down.
Step 7
If the element gets damaged, it should be returned to the manufacturer for inspection.
Manufacturers Recommendation
We recommend placing two layers of plastic over the Nu-Klear Ag Pad while in use to prevent wear and tear on the plastic cover.
The Nu-Klear Ag Pad must be used with a residual current device.
Do not crease or fold the element.
Do not puncture or rip the element.
The Nu-Klear Ag Pad should always be kept flat and not covered with excessive insulation so heat can escape.
