OPERATION

High Limit Controller

The high limit opens and turns off the burner when the
water temperature reaches the setpoint. The high limit
automatically resets after the water temperature drops
past the setpoint and through the 10°F (6°C) differential.

WARNING

Explosion Hazard.
Can cause serious injury, death or equipment
damage.
Use this product only in systems with a pressure
relief valve.

Low Limit and Circulator Controllers

On a temperature rise, with the adjustable differential at
the minimum setting of 10°F (6°C), the burner circuit
(R-B) breaks and the circulator circuit (R-W) makes at
the control setpoint. On a temperature drop of 10°F (6°C)
below the setpoint, the R-B circuit makes and the R-W
circuit breaks. See Fig. 12.

At any differential setting greater than 10°F (6°C), the
R-B make temperature and the R-W break temperature
remain the same (control setting minus 10°F [6°C]). The
R-B break and R-W make temperature are the setpoint
temperature plus the difference between the differential
setting and 10°F (6°C).

EXAMPLE: Setpoint of 140°F (60°C), differential set
at 25°F (14°C). On a temperature rise, R-B breaks
and R-W makes at 155°F (68°C). On a temperature
fall, R-B makes and R-W breaks at 130°F (54°C).
