CAUTION
Some plastics may be dissolved by
thermal fl uid.
 THERMAL FLUID BREAKDOWN PREVENTION
 Multiple pressure switches and a diff erential pressure switch are used to
prevent this condition from occurring. See Figure 4. These safeties must
not be bypassed at any time.
 Exceeding the maximum operating temperature of the thermal fl uid will
also result in thermal fl uid breakdown. Fulton heaters are equipped with a
temperature limit switch (located on the front of the panel box) to prevent
this from occurring.
 A high temperature limit switch is an over temperature safety device.
If the high temperature limit shuts down the unit, the manual reset
button on the limit switch must be pressed. The reset button on the
fl ame programmer must also be pressed to reset the unit before it can be
restarted. See Figure 5. Refer to Maintenance section of this manual for
troubleshooting activities.
