Application
Designed specifically for steam boilers, the 194-A monitors boiler water level continuously. When water drops to an unsafe level, the cut-off switch opens to shut down the burner, preventing costly dry-fire damage. Simultaneously, the pump controller switch cycles the feed pump to maintain proper water level automatically. The alternate tapping options make this control adaptable to a wide range of boiler tapping configurations found in commercial and residential steam heating systems.
