Fig. 4. Position of bulb in immersion well, and use of well adapter when required.

CAUTION

Equipment Damage Hazard.

Exceeding load limits can damage the equipment.

1. When L8148E or J is used to power zone valves, 

low voltage 1.4A; 1.2A load is the maximum 

permissible when ambient temperature exceeds 

77°F (25°C). Use additional transformer(s) if load 

exceeds ratings.

2. When L8148E (with 50 VA transformer) is used to 

power SV9500/SV9600, a separate transformer 

must be used to power zone valves.
