These guidelines are supplied when necessary to install
an additional Low Water Cut Off (LWCO), for sensing a
low water level condition in a boiler, as required by the
Authority Having Jurisdiction.
Follow LWCO manufacturer installation instructions for
type of LWCO selected in addition to these instructions.
LWCO shall be 120V/60HZ control and dry contacts sized
for load being connected. Wire control to boiler. See Figure

• Locate LWCO sensing device in the supply
piping, above the minimum height of boiler.
See Figure page 42, Piping Diagram.
• Position control in piping above boiler to assure
proper boiler protection.
• For proper operation, sensing element of the LWCO
control shall be positioned in the tee to sense the
main water stream. Maintain minimum 1/4" spacing
from pipe walls. Element shall NOT contact the rear,
or side walls of the tee. See Figure page 43.
• Install an air vent using a tee to avoid nuisance
shutdowns.
• Apply small amount of pipe sealant to threaded
connections.
• Arrange piping to prevent water dripping onto boiler.
• DO NOT install water shutoff valve between boiler
and LWCO sensing device.
