Mode Indicator Lights

 

Select the unit operating mode by using the selection switch. 

 

Power On Mode Indicator Light. 

The Power On mode indicator light illuminates 

to indicate that the control circuit is energized in the unit. 

 

Auto Mode Indicator Light. 

The Auto mode indicator light indicates that the Auto mode 

is active and the controller is monitoring the system and controlling the process. 

 

If the Auto light is off and the Cool Solenoid indicator light is illuminated, the controller 
is disabled and the cooling solenoid is open, permitting maximum cooling. 

 

If the Auto and Cool Solenoid indicator lights are off, the unit is in standby. 

 

 

Fault Indicator Lights

 

Pump Overload Indicator Light. 

The Pump Overload indicator light illuminates when 

the pump is overloaded. 

This is an alarm condition

, so the audible alarm activates to notify 

you of the pump overload fault, and the unit shuts down. 

 

Always correct the alarm condition before returning to normal 
operation!

 

 

Low Pressure Indicator Light. 

The Low Pressure indicator light illuminates when the unit 

has low heat transfer fluid pressure. 

This is an alarm condition

, so the audible alarm 

activates to notify you of the low pressure fault, and disables controller outputs, permitting 
the pump to continue to circulate fluid to avoid damage. If low pressure continues past five 
minutes elapsed time, the pump shuts off. 

 

Always correct the alarm condition before returning to normal 
operation!

 

 
 

Safety Thermo Indicator Light.   

The Safety Thermo indicator light illuminates when the unit is overheating. 

This is an alarm 

condition

, so the audible alarm activates to notify you of the safety thermo fault, and 

disables controller outputs, permitting the pump to continue to circulate fluid to avoid 
damage. 

 

Always correct this alarm condition before returning to 
normal operation!

 

 

High Level Indicator Light (Optional). 

The High Level indicator light illuminates 

when the heat transfer fluid level in the reservoir tank is too high. Carefully remove just 
enough fluid so this indicator light shuts off. 

 

Low Level Indicator Light. 

The Low Level indicator light illuminates when the heat 

transfer fluid level in the system is too low. 

This is an alarm condition

, so the audible 

alarm activates to notify you of the low fluid level fault, and the controller outputs are 
disabled. 

 

Always correct the alarm condition before returning to 
normal operation!
