4.6 OVER-TEMPERATURE LIMIT SWITCHES
The unit contains three (3) types of over-temperature limit switches. These switches consist of a
manual reset switch, a rotary dial adjustable switch and a digital alarm switch. These switches
are mounted on a plate as shown in Figure 4-6. The switches can be accessed by opening the
front panel door of the unit.
The manual reset switch is not adjustable and is permanently fixed at 210°F. This switch will
shut down and lock out the boiler if the water temperature exceeds 210°F. Following an over-
temperature condition, it must be manually reset by pressing the manual reset button shown in
Figurer 4-6 before the boiler can be restarted.
The rotary dial over-temperature switch is manually adjustable from xxx to yyy ºF. This switch
allows the boiler to restart, once the temperature drops below the selected temperature setting
on the dial. Set the dial on this over-temperature switch to the desired setting.
The digital alarm switch shown in Figures 4-6 and 4-7 is preset at the factory to 210ºF and
should not be changed. If an over-temperature condition is detected, this switch automatically
shuts down the boiler and sounds an audible alarm. If desired, the over-temperature alarm
switch settings can be checked or adjusted using the procedure in paragraph 4.6.1.
