Operation
The Ser
ies PSE-800 probe type LWCO’s provide
protection against low water conditions for residential
and commercial steam boiler applications. The control
uses patented technology to monitor changes in
water conductivity. When defined parameters are
exceeded, the new PSE-800 makes a decision to
shut the burner off based on the volatility/variability

of the resistance readings. This new patented technology
provides the best protection possible without turning
off the boiler unless a low water condition exists. As
an added measure of safety, the control will turn off
the boiler if it recognizes an out-of-water condition
when the sensitivity threshold is exceeded.
