SECTION 2.
Remote Bulb Aquastat Controller

2A. Application

This remote bulb, immersion-type controller

operates in response to temperature changes in

hydronic heating systems and in other heated liquids.

It provides spdt switching for three wire circuit

applications, combining low limit and circulator

control.

Switch ratings are shown on the inside cover.

The electrical requirements of controlled equipment

must not exceed these ratings.

The R to B contacts make to start the boiler when

the boiler water temperature drops to the dial setting

less the differential. The R to W contact breaks to

prevent circulator operation. When the boiler water

temperature rises to the dial setting, R to B breaks and

R to W makes (see Figure 5).
