To start heating turn on the red "heat" I/0 switch and if all normal, you will observe the
"heat lamps" lighting on and off.
3.
Limit Controller
Labnics optionally provides Limit Controller as a means of Over Temperature safety. Limit
Controller through as a separate thermocouple, has the purpose of cutting off the heating of

also will not let the furnace reheat even if furnace cools down to lower than the limit
temperature. To restart heating, operator has to press the "Reset Button"on the control
panel. Honeywell DC1010 Limit Controller is very easy to use. In order to set the desired
limit temperature press “
