Mascot LX Service Manual

The temperature sensors used in this unit are devices called “thermis-

tors.” The electrical resistance across a thermistor drops as the tem-

perature rises. The table below shows some typical resistance readings

at different temperatures.
There are three temperature sensors mounted directly on the Mascot

LX unit:

• Inlet water temperature sensor
• Combined outlet water temperature sensor and water temperature

high limit (duplex sensor)

• Combined flue temperature and flue safety sensor (duplex sensor)
On a “Combi” unit which produces Domestic Hot Water (DHW), another

sensor is mounted above the flat-plate water heater behind and below

the unit:

• DHW high temperature limit sensor

Other sensors may be mounted at remote locations:

•  System sensor
•  DHW sensor (if installed)
•  Sensor for Outdoor Reset function (if installed)

Each “duplex” sensor assembly actually uses two thermistors. The

control module compares the readings of the two. If the difference (the

“drift”) becomes greater than allowed, the controller declares a lockout

and prevents the Mascot LX unit from firing.
To check a thermistor, unplug the sensor wires and check the resistance

through the thermistor using a volt-ohmmeter. Note the temperature of

the part, and check the resistance against the table. If there is an open-

circuit or no resistance at all, replace the part.

The connector for a “duplex” sensor will include four pins. Two of these

run to one thermistor, and two go to the other. You should see the same

resistance reading on both of the thermistors in the assembly.
