5.5 WATER TEMPERATURE FAULT TEST
A high water temperature fault is simulated by adjusting the automatic over-temperature switch.
This switch is accessible from the front of the unit as shown in Figure 5-2.
Water Temperature Fault Test
1. Start the unit in the normal operating mode. Allow the unit to stabilize at its setpoint.
2. Lower the adjustable over-temperature switch setting to match the displayed OUTLET
TEMPERATURE.
3. Once the adjustable over-temperature switch setting is approximately at, or just below, the
actual outlet water temperature, the unit should shut down. The FAULT indicator should
start flashing and a HIGH WATER TEMP SWITCH OPEN fault message should be
displayed. It should not be possible to restart the unit.
4. Reset the adjustable over-temperature switch to its original setting.
5. The unit should start once the adjustable temperature limit switch setting is above the actual
outlet water temperature.
NOTES
The manual (non-adjustable) Over Temp Limit switch is
calibrated to trip if the discharge water exceeds 190° F. Testing
of this device must be done by authorized personnel only.
