3.1.1

 

Safety Loop 

 

A:  Components 

 

Referring to Figure 2 (Control System Schematic) the safety loop includes the following 
components:   

 

I: 

High temperature cut off switch:

 This is a manual reset switch and is normally 

closed.  It is installed on the outlet manifold.  The desired high limit temperature 
can be set by the owner and is usually 10 

°

F above the maximum operating 

temperature.  In no event should this switch be set at above 210 

°

F.   If the outlet 

temperature increases above the set temperature, this switch will open and the unit 
will go into the “lock-out” mode.  The unit will remain in this mode until the 
operator manually resets the switch. 

 

 

II:

 

Operating temperature switch:  

This contact normally closes when the actual value 

is less than the set point and is embedded in the temperature controller unit. The 
desired outlet temperature (desired set point) is also set by the owner on the same 
temperature controller. 

 

III: 

Low water cut off switch:

  This switch in the safety loop is installed at the end of 

manifold.  The switch is normally open, and as soon as water level in the system 
reaches the point where the switch is installed, it will close. 
 

IV: 

Remote Enable/Disable Terminals:

  There are “Remote Enable/Disable” terminals 

in the control panel.  These terminals can be used for the BMS connections, if 
required. 

 

V: 

Low gas pressure switch:  

A manual reset low gas pressure switch is installed on 

the gas train between the gas pressure regulator and the first safety shut off valve 
(please see item #4 on the schematic diagram “Typical UL Schematic Gas Piping” 
on page 9 of the Riello catalogue).  If the line pressure drops below 8” wc, the 
switch will open and the unit will immediately shut down.   

 

VI:

 

Air Pressure Switches:  

One low air pressure switch is installed on the side of the 

blower and measures air pressure entering the burner (for exact location of the 
switch please see item #14 on the drawing presented on page 4 of the Riello 
catalogue).  If the combustion air pressure drops by more than 20% below the 
nominal air pressure (minimum pressure of 0.4” wc), the burner controller will be 
deactivated and the main gas valve will immediately close.
