NOTICE
Connecting the thermostat with a voltage other than 24V may damage the heater. The HL3 Series
requires a 24V connection to the thermostat. This is either supplied by the heater internally (standard) or
by an external transformer (with optional isolation relays, P/N: HLRP). See Figure 3.30
HL3 Series heaters require a 24VAC, two-stage thermostat to operate. The burner control box is equipped
with a round terminal strip that accepts three (3) 1/4” insulated female spade terminals. Do not supply
120V to the 24V connection.
The HL3 Series is equipped with or without relays (P/N: HLRP). The optional relays must be factory
installed.
NOTE:
Units with a relay installed must have an external transformer (field supplied), see wiring
diagram. (See Figure 3.31B).
Standard Configuration
Without relays (identified with white label around the terminal block):
• Single burner control box.
• Single thermostat.
Optional Configuration
With relays (identified with orange label around the terminal block):
• A single thermostat controls two or more burner control boxes.
• Heaters are common vented.
• Must be factory installed.
• This heater must be electrically grounded in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code C22.1
(latest edition).
• Applications must conform to the Canadian Electrical Codes C22.1 (latest edition) when an external
electrical source is used.
• Refer to the rating label on heater for the required amperage rating.
• Under no circumstance is the electrical supply line to the heater to provide any assistance in the
suspension of the heater.
• Neither the electrical supply line nor sprinkler heads shall be located within the minimum clearances
to combustibles.
