Remote Bulb Aquastat Controller
2A. Application
This remote bulb, immersion-type controller
operates in response to temperature changes in
hydronic heating systems and in other heated liquids.
It provides spdt switching for three wire circuit
applications, combining low limit and circulator
control.
Switch ratings are shown on the inside cover.
The electrical requirements of controlled equipment
must not exceed these ratings.
The R to B contacts make to start the boiler when
the boiler water temperature drops to the dial setting
less the differential. The R to W contact breaks to
prevent circulator operation. When the boiler water
temperature rises to the dial setting, R to B breaks and
R to W makes (see Figure 5).
