If the control will be the secondary low water
fuel cut-off,
size the steam (top) and water (bottom)
equalizing pipe lengths so that the cut-off level
mark is at or above the lowest safe permissible
water level, as determined by the boiler

Probes and Electrical Connections

• Each probe is made up of an electrode and a probe rod. Each

probe rod must be cut to an appropriate point of operation.

A 9" rod will be positioned at the low water cut-off level.

Cut other rods for the pump operating probes to the desired
length.

• After cutting, secure the probe rod to the electrode and lock

the thread using the jamnut in the electrode sleeve. Insert the
probe into the chamber and tighten by hand. Then torque to
22-25 ft/lbs (30-34 N/m).

• Refer to and follow all local codes and standards.

• Secure the electrical enclosure to the chamber with gasket

between. Note that the electrical connection opening can be
orientated in any of 4 positions. Tighten screws to 30 - 35 in/lbs
(3.4-4.0 N/m).

• Probe wire and conduit connections should be made following

accepted electrical practices.

• Install electrical cover enclosure after making all connections

and after control has been tested for proper operation.
Tighten screws to 30 - 35 in/lbs (3.4-4.0 N/m).

Wire must be 18 AWG stranded with glass braided silicone jacket
(UL 3071) suitable for high temperature (200˚C) service.
