Zoo Med 500R Thermostat with Remote Sensor
Features include a 6 foot remote sensor probe, a dual port plug receptacle to control multiple heating devices, and adhesive pads for mounting. Excellent for use with Zoo Med’s Ceramic Heat Emitter and the Repti Therm Under Tank Heater. Safety cover prevents accidental bumping of the temperature control dial! When used in conjunction with a timer, natural conditions are replicated by providing the proper photoperiod for your reptile, along with a beneficial nighttime temperature drop (consult a good book on your species to determine its specific temperature requirements). Range is from approximately 70° to 110°F (21° to 43°C).500R product manual: http://zoomed.com/Library/ProductDBFiles/thermostat500r.pdf
*International buyers please note*
This item is wired for USA/Canada power outlets - 110 VAC @ 60 Hz. If you live in a country with 220 VAC, you will need a 50 Watt 220 to 110 transformer and a plug adapter. DO NOT use a 220-110 power "converter", as they work by chopping the sine wave so the output is an on-off single polarity pulse. These are fine for heating elements, but will fry 110 electronics, thermostats, motors, and incandescent & CFL lighting.

FAQ:
|
| Q: What is the difference between a rheostat and a thermostat? |
| A: A rheostat is basically a dimmer. It allows you to manually reduce the amount of power reaching a heater. A thermostat like the 500R senses the temperature and turns the heater on and off accordingly. |
FAQ:
|
| Q: How many heating devices can be controled with this device? |
| A: You can plug up to two heating devices into this temperature controller. Make sure the maximum wattage capability is not exceeded. |
FAQ:
|
| Q: What is the lowest temperature the thermostat can be set for? |
| A: Because of the applications for which this product was designed, it can not regulate or sense temperatures below about 70 degrees. |
FAQ:
|
| Q: I am using a thermostat/ rheostat and the temperature is not rising. |
| A: Thermostats and rheostats cannot increase the temperature a heat source is capable of putting out. Setting the thermostat/rheostat to the maximum temperature/ level will be as hot as the heat source itself will get. |
FAQ:
|
| Q: Can the thermostat be used in an aquarium? |
| A: While the probe is water resistant, it is designed to measure the temperature of air and may not be safe or effective for use in water. |
I will combine shipping whenever practical.
