To set a desired temperature, turn the RTU dial until the temperature is seen in the display window.
Temperature scales
The RTU is supplied with two temperature scales. The RTU comes with the
°
F scale displayed in
the window. The
°
C temperature scale is located on the back of the
°
F scale. In order to change the
scale to
°
C, remove the front cover, lift and pull the scale off the dial, flip it over and replace it.
Limiting the temperature range
The temperature range on the RTU can be limited in order to avoid extreme temperature settings
or any tampering with the setting.
• Turn the dial until the desired temperature is at the bottom of the RTU.
• Remove the front cover by following Step One of the Installation procedure.
• Lift and pull the scale off the dial. Be careful not turn the dial while removing the scale. With the
scale off, a series of small holes will be visible around the dial. Behind the dial there is a post which
can be used to limit the rotation of the dial. Two aluminium limit pins are provided in the dial.
Setting a low temperature limit
Remove one of the limit pins and re-insert it into the hole that is slightly to the left of the post
at the bottom of the dial. With the pin in place the dial should only rotate clockwise from its
current position as the counter-clockwise rotation is now restricted by the pin.
Setting a high temperature limit
Insert one of the pins into the hole that is slightly to the right of the post.
Setting a fixed temperature
Insert one of the pins into the hole in the bottom of the dial such that the pin enters the post
behind the dial. With the pin in place the dial should be fixed in position.
Replace the scale by sliding it onto the dial until the rectangular hole slips into the holding clip.
Replace the front cover by following Step Five of the Installation procedure.
