All necessary settings, and where appropriate, alterations inside the instrument are
described in these operating instructions. However, if any difficulties should still arise during commissioning, you are asked not to carry out any unauthorized manipulations on the
unit. You could endanger your rights under the instrument warranty! Please contact the
nearest subsidiary or the head office in such a case.

1.2Application
The flue gas thermostat is used for monitoring flue gas temperatures on solidfuel boilers in dual operation with oil-heated boilers.
Caution
A
When burning solid fuels, it is necessary to ensure that they are approved in
accordance with the corresponding local regulations on emission protection. If
this is ignored, corrosive gases may destroy the thermostat!
1 Introduction
Operation
The flue gas thermostat operates on the principle of rod expansion. The
immersion tube and the metal rod inside it have different expansion coefficients, producing a temperature-dependent difference in length which acts on
the microswitch through a mechanism. The microswitch is operated above a
set temperature limit. After the immersion tube has cooled down by approx. 10
to 30 °C, the microswitch is reset. Should the immersion tube break, the circuit
is opened permanently.

4.1Regulations and notes
The electrical connection must only be carried out by properly qualified per-
❏
sonnel.
The choice of cable, the installation and the electrical connection must con-
❏
form to the requirements of VDE 0100 “Regulations on the Installation of
Power Circuits with nominal voltages below 1000 V” or the appropriate
local regulations.
If contact with live parts is possible while working on the unit, it must be
❏
completely disconnected from the supply.
Earth the instrument at the PE terminal with the protective earth conductor.
❏
This cable must have at least the same cross-section as used for the supply
cables. Earth cables must be wired in a star configuration to a common
earth point that is connected to the protective earth of the supply. Do not
loop earth cables, i.e. do not run them from one instrument to another.
