The limit controls are mounted on the face of the heater and are
wired into the supply wires to each element. If there is not enough
air flowthrough the heater, the limit will open and break the power
circuit. The limit will reset when the electric accessory cools
down.
Operation
The heater elements are switched ON and OFF through a contac-
tor which operates through the low voltage thermostat circuit.

1. Shut OFF electric power at unit disconnect switch or service
panel.

NOTE: Installation of field wiring and conduit for heaters
to the unit prior to installing the heater will simplify wir-
ing of heaters.

on the heater cover plate and save the screws. Discard the
heater cover plate.

cessory and its cover.
