Osburn Stoves by SB I HYBRID-45 MF - Manual (Page 14)

OPERATING THE STOVE USING A THERMOSTAT
A thermostat may help you maintain a constant house
temperature automatically. A millivolt thermostat or 24 Volt
thermostat is required. A fixed wall mount or hand held model can
be used. The control panel can be set up two ways to operate
your stove in thermostatic mode.
THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION
•
Unplug the stove from the power outlet.
• Connect two thermostat wires to the terminal block located
on the lower right side of the back of the stove. To do so,
loosen the two screws and insert the wires in the terminals.
Tighten the two screws. (See figure 16)
• If you are using a wireless wall thermostat or a hand held
thermostatic remote control, you can locate the receiver
behind the stove’s back panel, on the right end side, just
below the terminal block. Most receivers are already
equipped with quick-connect terminals. Simply unplug the
PC board wires connected to the back of the terminal block
and connect them directly with the receiver’s terminals.
Location of the thermostat is very important to obtain the
best comfort and efficiency from you Hybrid-45 MF. The
thermostat should be mounted 50 inch from the floor on a
wall located 15 to 20 feet from the stove. You should avoid
an installation directly in front of the stove to avoid
cycling.(See figure 17)
MODES
THERMOSTATIC MODE
•
To use this mode, the “MODE” button must be pushed to
“Thermostat” upon starting the stove. The heat setting is then
selected using the “Heat Level” selector “+ or –“. When set in
thermostatic mode, the stove will automatically run a the heat
level selected until the set room temperature is reached.
When that occurs, the stove will switch to heat setting #1
(lowest) until the thermostat calls for heat again. The
convection blower will also slow to its lowest speed. When
the thermostat calls for heat again, the stove will increase its
feed rate to match the heat setting selected.
•
N.B.: If the room temperature remains stable and the
thermostat does not call for heat during at least 45 minutes,
the stove will shut down. When the thermostat calls for heat
again, the stove will start an ignition cycle. Once the ignition
cycle is completed, the stove will increase its feed rate to
match the heat setting selected.
NOTE: When in thermostatic mode:
•
You should not operate the manual control or play with the
temperature setting.
•
YOUR THERMOSTAT SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY AN
AUTHORIZED DEALER OR SERVICE PERSON.
