The Series DFS2 Low Limit Freeze Protection Switch protects cooling coils in air
handler systems by preventing frost build up. The thermostat and its capillary sensing
element provide an antifreeze function by sensing the lowest temperature along any
one foot section of capillary. The DPDT manual or automatic reset relays signal the
building management system as well as cut off the fan. The Series DFS2 will detect
temperature drops below the xed safety value (set point) which can be set as low as
34°F (1°C) utilizing the visual set point indicator and set point screw.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
• Vapor-lled copper capillary sensing element
• Joint spring protector at capillary-bellow connection
• Set point safety-lock protection and simple adjustment
• Easy installation and wiring
• Automatic and manual reset
