DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE FUNCTIONS

Aquastats thermostats

Honeywell manufactures a coprehensive range of water temperature thermostats (trade name Aquastat) for controlling and limiting boiler water temperature in hydronic heating systems. These sensitive, fast response devices are available in either direct, panel or surface mount versions.

Sensing element

The liquid filled sensing element, including well or sensor assembly, responds to temperature changes of water in a heating system. The sensor element has a diaphragm type power head connected to a tube type capsule, through a small bore capillary. Expansion of the liquid, which completely fills the sensing element, is the means of motion of the diaphragm. The sensor assembly, used on the surface mounted aquastat, envelopes the sensing capsule by means of an aluminium heat shield for better heat conduction, an insulator of glasswool and a mounting bracket.

Control mechanism

The control mechanism is mounted into the thermoplastic housing. The mechanism transfers the motion of the diaphragm to a snap action switch (Micro Switch) and also provides the facility to adjust the temperature level on which the Micro Switch has to operate. The mechasnism consists of a two piece lever with calibration screw, a plastic actuator for the switch, a cam and shaft for the set-point adjustment, a loading spring for cam and levers and a pad with pushplate to transfer the diaphragm motion to the lever.

Knob with scale and index

The plastic knob with scale and index enables the user to adjust the Aquastat on a selected temperature setting within its range. The knob fits on the cam and stays on it due to the force of the spring on the nave of the knob. This spring force enables the installer to pull the knob from the cam without the use of tools. The hole in the knob and the shaft of the cam are provided with a flat side which allows mounting of the knob only in one position in order to maintain the calibration. The plastic index will be fastened by means of two M4 thread forming screws on the housing.

Micro Switch

The Micro Switch mechanism is also mounted into the plastic housing. the mechanism consists of a snap action spring type PL with contacts and a moveable or a fixed and a stationary contact bracket.

The Micro Switch mechanism is intended to control electrically a burner, a relay, etc. in dependency of the temperature changes in a heating system. On choice the Micro Switch mechanism can be delivered with the following contact arrangements:

• Single Pole Single Throw, C-1 breaks on temperature rise

• Single Pole Double Throw, C-1 breaks on temperature rise. C-2 makes on temperature rise.

The contacts are connected to 6.3 mm terminals which are extending from the outside of the Aquastat housing.

Cover and conduit entries

The housing(s) of the Aquastat can be provided with conduit boxes which are provided with holes to fit Pg 13.5 conduits. To obtain easy wiring possibilities these boxes can be mounted or disconnect without the use of tools (hook in approach). The conduit box is locked with the front cover, which is fastened by means of an M3 thread forming screw. Also the top cover is locked by the front cover.

Set-point stops

On request, the Aquastat can be delivered with a high and low limit stop. The purpose of these stops is to provide the user with the facility to choose a maximum and/or minimum setting on the scale. The stop is situated on the rear side of the setting knob. Adjustment is only possible after removal of the knob.

Manual or tool reset

On request, the Aquastat can be delivered with a manual reset or a tool reset feature. The tool reset feature is covered by the front cover. Operating of the reset button is only possible after removal of the front cover. The manual reset button potrudes the front cover of the Aquastat and resetting can be done without the use of a tool.

Adjustable differential

On request, it is possible to deliver the Aquastat with an adjustable switch differential. The adjustable switch differential feature consists of a plastic adjusting dial with pointer, which is connected to a moveable contact. Turning of the dial changes the contact gap of the Micro Switch and thus the differential. The dial is situated under the front cover or behind the panel. Adjustable differential feature is only applicable on controllers and recycling limit controls

DESCRIPTION

The L41../L61.. series aquastats are sensitive water temperature control, which are provided with a liquid filled sensing system.

The following main types are available:

• Single, panel mount immersion

Aquastat with remote bulb to select the most favourable position on a boiler or vessel.

• Single, direct mounted immersion

Aquastat with insulating cover to protect against accidential touching of live parts.

• Dual, direct mounted immersion

Dual Aquastat and consisting of two basic single units, which are mounted together and protected by one common cover and using one well for the two sensors.

• Single, surface mounted

The sensor of this type is to be mounted directly on the surface of a boiler or pipe in a heating system. The Aquastat mechanism is directly attached to this sensor.

The L41../L61.. series aquastats are primarily designed for application on water filled heating systems and systems for hot water supply, mainly domestic use.

The L41../L61.. series aquastats can be divided in the following main types:

• Controller

Controls the water temperature in accordance with the setting of an external knob (TÜV-type TR)

• Recycling limit control

Limits the water temperature below or above an adjusted level and resets automatically. This type has a greater differential and no external knob (TÜV-type TW).

• Thermal cut-out with external reset button (manual reset)

Limits the water temperature on a maximum adjusted level. This type does not reset automatically and it does not have an external knob.

• Thermal cut-out with internal reset button (tool reset)

Limits the water temperature on a maximum adjusted level. This type does not reset automatically and it does not have an external knob.
