OPERATION

As the liquid filing the sensing bulb and capillary expands and

contracts, it moves a diaphragm. Movement of the diaphragm

is transferred by a lever to the snap-acting switch in the

controller.

High or Low Limit Action (L4188, L4189)

The normally closed C-1 contacts open on temperature rise to

the set point, shutting off power to the controlled circuit. On

auto recycle models, the switch closes C-1 after the

temperature falls past the set point and through the differential

(See Fig. 11).

Low Limit/Circulator Action (L6188, L6189)

The low limit is connected to the normally closed C-1 contacts,

and the circulator to the normally open C-2 contacts. As long

as the temperature at the sensing bulb is above set point, the

circulator runs. If sensing bulb temperature falls past the set

point and through the differential, the switch breaks C-2 to turn

off the circulator, and makes C-1 to turn on the burner. When

the temperature rises to the set point, C-2 makes to turn on the

circulator, and C-1 breaks to turn off the burner.

On manual reset models, the reset button must be pushed

before contacts C-1 will close (See Fig. 11).
