Comparing the SET temperature and the output 

signal of the transmitter. 

 
Test of Thermostat Switch: 

 

Place the thermostat switch into a correct sized 

insert in the heating thermo well. 

 

Connect the terminals placed on the front panel of 

the calibrator to the thermostat switch to be 

powered and calibrated. 

 

 

Switch calibrator ON. 

 

Ensure that thermostat is not connected to any other 

voltage supply. 

 

Select required temperature. 

 

When SET point of the thermostat is obtained, the 

display will show open / close condition.
