Low Water Cut-Off
For Residential
Hot Water Boilers

120 VAC Operating Voltage

Model 1150

Determine Mounting Location

The Safgard 1150 must be installed at or above the

minimum safe water level established by the boiler

manufacturer. The 1150 can be installed directly into

the boiler if a suitable tapping is available

. The

1150 can also be installed in the boiler piping using a

standard 3/4" tee

.

IMPORTANT: Check for adequate clearance

(minimum 1/4") from metal probe sensor to any

surface inside the boiler or pipe.
Do not install in a location that could hold or trap

water in the event of a low water condition.

Remove center

extended nut.

Apply pipe

sealing

compound to

probe threads

and install in

boiler or tee.

Tighten so that

the two smaller

extended nuts

are horizontally

aligned.

Mount the control box on the probe by aligning the

keyhole slots with the two extended nuts. Replace

the center extended nut. Secure the control box by

tightening all three extended nuts.

IMPORTANT: Extended nuts must be tightened

securely for proper grounding.

WARNING:

To prevent electrical shock or equipment damage, power must be off during installation or servicing of the control. To pre-

vent serious burns, the boiler should be thoroughly cooled before installing or servicing control. Only qualified personnel may install or
service the control in accordance with local codes and ordinances. Read instructions completely before proceeding.
