Electric towel warmer | heated towel rail | 500 W | 500 × 1200 mm | 11 bars | IP44 | white RAL 9016 | ADAX Wave 50-120-500 White

ADAX Wave 50-120-500 White is a white electric ladder-type heated towel rail designed for drying and warming towels and providing additional bathroom comfort. The model features 11 rectangular-profile bars, a 500 W electric heating element, programmable MUSA controller, 7–30 °C temperature adjustment and IP44 protection. The white RAL 9016 finish and understated Scandinavian design suit both modern and classic bathroom interiors.

ADAX Wave 50-120-500 White combines towel drying, electric heating and programmable temperature control in one appliance. The taller 1200 mm design and 11 bars provide more space for towels, while the 500 W power rating offers higher heating output than more compact Wave models. The integrated MUSA controller supports COMFORT, NIGHT, ANTIFREEZE, TIMER-2H and CHRONO modes, weekly and hourly programming, open-window detection and button-lock functions.

Ready to use: the heated towel rail is already filled with heat-transfer fluid and fitted with a programmable electric heating element, so after mechanical installation it only needs to be properly connected to the electrical supply.

Unlike ladder designs with round-profile tubes, ADAX Wave uses rectangular-profile black-steel tube bars. The model has 11 horizontal bars, providing more space for hanging and drying several everyday towels. The 500 × 1200 mm dimensions are particularly suitable where a taller towel warmer and a larger usable hanging area are required.

The installed white electric heating element is rotatable. This allows the towel warmer to be adapted during installation so that the controller is positioned on the more convenient side – either right-hand or left-hand installation can be selected.

The appliance is switched on or placed into standby using the [On/Standby] button.

• When switched on, the display shows the current time, selected mode and set temperature.
• In standby mode, the current time, day of the week and [Stb] message are displayed.
• When switching to standby, the appliance beeps twice for 0.5 seconds.
• When switching on, one approximately 1-second beep is emitted.

Two main temperature levels can be set:

• COMFORT temperature is used in COMFORT, CHRONO and, where applicable, FIL-PILOT modes.
• NIGHT temperature is used in NIGHT and CHRONO modes.
• The overall configurable temperature range is 7–30 °C.
• NIGHT temperature must be at least 0.5 °C lower than COMFORT temperature.

COMFORT mode maintains the selected room temperature steadily. Press [Prog] until the COMFORT icon appears, then set the desired temperature with [+] and [−].

NIGHT mode maintains a lower temperature than COMFORT mode. It is recommended at night or when the room will remain unused for 2 hours or more. NIGHT temperature can be adjusted from 7 °C up to COMFORT temperature minus 0.5 °C.

In ANTIFREEZE mode the setting is fixed at 7 °C. The heating element activates when room temperature falls below this level. The mode is useful during holidays, in guest rooms or other rarely used spaces.

TIMER-2H mode is intended for faster drying of damp towels or short-term intensive room heating. In this mode the appliance operates at its maximum 500 W power for up to 2 hours, up to a maximum room temperature of 30 °C. Afterwards it automatically returns to the previously selected mode.

CHRONO mode allows an individual 7-day heating schedule to be created. Each hour of every day can be assigned:

• COMFORT temperature – shown as a filled time bar.
• NIGHT temperature – shown as an empty time bar.

This makes it possible to reduce the temperature automatically at night or when the bathroom is not used and return to COMFORT temperature before the expected usage time.

1. Switch the appliance to STANDBY mode.
2. Hold [−] for at least 3 seconds.
3. [SEt] appears at the top of the display.
4. Use [+] to select [tEd].
5. Press [Prog] and set the day of the week.
6. Confirm the selected day with [Prog].
7. Set the hours using [+] and [−] and confirm with [Prog].
8. Set the minutes in the same way.
9. At the end of the procedure, the controller returns to STANDBY mode.

1. Switch the appliance to STANDBY mode.
2. Hold [−] for at least 3 seconds until [SEt] appears.
3. Use [+] to select [Pro9].
4. Press [Prog] to enter programming mode.
5. For each hour of the day press [+] for COMFORT or [−] for NIGHT temperature.
6. Press [Prog] to confirm the programme for day 1.
7. Repeat the same procedure for the remaining 6 days.

Open-window detection reacts to a sudden drop in room temperature. If such a change is detected, the heating element is temporarily switched off. Heating resumes when an increase in temperature indicates that the window has been closed.

The function can be enabled or disabled in the controller settings. When active, the Open Window icon is shown on the display.

Note: an open window may not be detected if the thermostat is located in an isolated area away from air currents, near an external heat source or if the room temperature changes too slowly.

To prevent accidental changes to temperature or programmes, the control buttons can be locked. Holding [Prog] for approximately 3 seconds locks all buttons except [On/Standby]. A lock symbol appears on the display. To unlock, hold [Prog] again for approximately 3 seconds.

FIL-PILOT mode applies only to products equipped with the Fil-Pilote system. In such versions, the operating mode can be set by a centralised building or home heating-control system. Compatibility must be checked according to the specific product configuration.

• Bathrooms.
• Drying and warming towels.
• Supplementary bathroom heating.
• Sanitary rooms in houses and apartments.
• Hotel and guest-house bathrooms.
• Rooms where a larger towel-hanging area is required.
• Rooms requiring programmable electric heating.

1. Always disconnect the power supply before installation or electrical work.
2. Install vertically on a suitable and sufficiently strong wall.
3. Take the greater 1200 mm product height into account and check the installation area in advance.
4. Use mounting screws suitable for the wall construction.
5. The appliance must not be installed with the electrical controller at the top.
6. The lowest heated bar should be at least 600 mm above the floor.
7. Leave at least 50 cm of free space in front of the appliance.
8. Do not place objects closer than approximately 10 cm.
9. The heater must not be installed directly below an electrical socket.
10. Installation and electrical work must be performed by a qualified person in accordance with applicable requirements.

The towel warmer has an IP44 protection rating and is protected against splashing water. It may be installed in bathroom Zone 2 provided that electrical controls cannot be reached by a person using the bath or shower.

Electrical safety: in rooms containing a bath or shower, the supply circuit must be protected by an appropriate residual-current device with a rated residual current not exceeding 30 mA where required by applicable installation rules.
