WIRING DIAGRAMS

Low Water Cut-Off Only

1. Main Line Switch - For burner circuits within the

switch’s electrical rating.

Pump Control Only

1. Install a starter or relay in pump control circuit,

as shown, to prevent damage to snap switch
and help insure proper switch/control operation.
Failure to do so may shorten the life of the
switch when actual amperage exceeds switch rating.

2. Connect wires from holding coil of pump starter

or relay to terminals 1 and 2 as shown.

NOTE:

To help insure most effective operation, 

balance boiler feed pump(s) to deliver required water
feed rate to match boiler steaming requirements.

1. Main Line Switch - For burner circuits within

the switch’s electrical rating.

2. Pilot Switch  - To holding coil of a starter when

the burner circuit exceeds the switch’s electrical
rating.
