Thermal safety switches efficiently detect flue gas spillage due to a blocked flue, continuous down drafting or inadequate draft condition. With the safety switch wired in series with the burner circuit, the switch will de-energize the system's burner or burner control once it senses the spillage of hot flue gases. Available for gas-fired and oil-fired applications.
Application: Designed for use on large gas furnaces and boilers. Can be mounted on Draft Hood or double-acting Barometric Draft Control (both brackets included). Manual reset. For use on 24/120/240 Volt equipment over
400,000 BTU/hr.
How It Works:
The Thermal Safety Switch detects the increased
heat generated by the flue gas spillage and deactivates the furnace or boiler. It will not allow the burner to restart until the switch has been manually reset.
