Series 26 – General Purpose Control
Designed for boiler low-water cutoff protection. A snap-through standoff mounting
device is available for Series 26 units. Optional Power Outage feature resets after
nuisance outages. Optional reset button is used when device has been deactivated
because of low water condition. Reset is functional only if water has returned to
normal level. Optional Test Feature available allows LLCO circuit to be tested without
draining the water level in the boiler. Built-in 3 second time delay is standard. Up to 90
seconds available for increasing and decreasing levels.

Manual Reset
Available on Series 26, 26M and DF controls
(Normally closed pushbutton across reset terminals. Pushbutton ordered separately):
Manual reset only applies to the function associated with terminal LLCO. When the
liquid rises to the electrode on terminal LLCO, the control will remain de-energized
(load contacts in original state) until the pushbutton is depressed. The control will
then energize, (LED will be lit) changing the state of the contacts. The control
remains energized until the liquid level recedes below electrode on terminal LLCO.
The control then de-energizes, (LED will go off) returning load contacts to their
original state. Unless otherwise specified, there is a three second time delay on
decreasing level. Liquid must be below probe on terminal LLCO for full three seconds
before control de-energizes.
Manual Reset with Power Outage Feature
Available on Series 26, 26M, and DF controls
Reset (Normally closed pushbutton across reset terminals. Pushbutton ordered
separately) Control will ignore power loss to control. With liquid in contact with
electrode on terminal LLCO, a power outage will cause the control to de-energize, but
will automatically energize upon return of power. However, loss of liquid will cause
control to de-energize and remain so until liquid again rises
to electrode and pushbutton is depressed.
Time Delays Associated with Terminals H and L
WARRICK CONDUCTIVITY SENSORS
Available on Series 16, 16M, and DF controls
With time delay on increasing level, the liquid must be in contact with the high
electrode for the full duration of the time delay before control will operate. With delay
on decreasing level, the liquid must be below the low electrode for the full duration
of the time delay before control will operate. In single level service, terminals 3 and 4
must be jumpered together to achieve time delays on both increasing and decreasing
levels or just decreasing level.

Time Delays Associated with Terminal LLCO
Available on Series 26, 26M, and DF controls
3 Second time delay on decreasing level is standard. Delay
up to 90 seconds, can be specified and would act in the same
manner as listed above.
Time Out Option
Available on Series 16, 16M, and DF controls
The latching circuit for the high and low electrode has
an optional timer. In some applications the High or Low
electrode may become short circuited or disconnected. Such
an occurrence may potentially over fill in fill applications,
or cause the pump to run dry in pump down applications.
The time option is custom programmed up to 3 minutes.
When a fault condition occurs, the FILL LED will have a blink
sequence of .5 seconds on 2 seconds off. See Chart A for
time delay options.
Test Feature
Available on Series 26, 26M, and DF controls
Allows LLCO circuit to be tested. Holding down the reset
button for 3 seconds will allow the LLCO circuit to trip which
simulates the loss of water, without the need of draining
the water level in the boiler. The control will return to normal
operation once the reset button is pressed a second
time. (Test feature option only available with the manual reset
function.)
