RAM1T Cylinder and/or Pipe Thermostat
Installation and User Instructions
Please note this cylinder/pipe thermostat is
capable of switching any voltage from 12 volt to
240 volt AC to a maximum amperage of 16 amps.
For wet central heating systems the fuse rating
should not exceed 3 amps!
Please also note this unit must be Earthed.
The RAM1T cylinder/pipe thermostat is a
mechanical thermostat with a bi-metallic sensor
which, under normal operation and installed in
the correct manner, is set to control with a
switching differential of 6°C. However, this is
adjustable if required between 5°C and 10°C.
The setting range of this thermostat is from 15°C
frost protection to 90°C.
Each terminal screw has its own number shown
on the plastic pillar adjacent to the screw.
Section A — Installation
To remove the cover gently prise off the control
knob and then undo the small cross-headed type
screw. Now pull the cover away from the
backplate. To replace, carry out the reverse
procedure. Adequate space has been allowed for
the connecting cables. A special cable gland is
provided at the base of the housing for securing
the cable.
When used with factory insulated hot water
cylinders, sufficient insulation must be removed
to allow the base of the thermostat to be in
contact with the cylinder wall.
The RAM1T should be mounted approx. one third
of the way up from the bottom of the cylinder and
on the opposite side to the heating coil. Each
thermostat is supplied complete with a metal
spring band, which assures a good clamping.
