Taco Comfort Solutions 5401-2 Direct Mount Thermostatic Operator

The Taco Comfort Solutions 5401-2 is a direct mount thermostatic operator engineered for reliable, automatic zone control in hydronic heating and cooling systems. Featuring factory-set open and close temperature setpoints of 46°F and 82°F respectively, this wax-element operator responds directly to system fluid temperature — eliminating the need for external electrical actuators or complex wiring in temperature-driven applications.

Key Features

• Direct mount design installs quickly onto compatible Taco zone valves — no separate linkage or brackets required
• Open setpoint: 46°F — closes the valve circuit as temperatures rise above the threshold
• Close setpoint: 82°F — reopens the valve circuit as temperatures drop, ensuring consistent hydronic zone response
• Wax-element thermostatic actuation provides self-contained, fail-safe operation without electrical power
• Compact, low-profile construction for easy installation in tight mechanical spaces
• Designed and manufactured by Taco Comfort Solutions — a trusted name in hydronic system components

Applications

• Hydronic radiant heating and cooling zone control
• Chilled water and hot water distribution systems
• Residential and light commercial boiler systems
• Temperature-based automatic valve actuation
