Low Water Cut Off (Optional)
The low water cut off automatically shuts down the
burner whenever water level drops below the level of
the sensing probe. A 3 second time delay prevents
premature lockout due to temporary conditions such
as power fluctuations or air pockets.

High and Low Gas Pressure
Switches — Manual Reset
The low gas pressure switch mounts upstream of the
gas pressure regulator to ensure that sufficient gas
pressure is present for proper regulator performance.
The low gas pressure switch automatically shuts down
the boiler if gas supply drops below the factory setting
of 6 in. WC for Natural gas, and 10 in. WC for Propane
gas.
The high gas pressure switch (optional) mounts down-
stream of the gas pressure regulator. If the gas
pressure regulator fails, the high gas pressure switch
automatically shuts down the burner.
