SEQUENCE OF OPERATION

Line voltage is applied across terminals L1

& L3 of upper thermostat. Line voltage also

extends to terminal L1 of lower thermostat.

Also, line voltage is applied to terminal L3

of lower thermostat. ECO in both upper &

lower thermostat is closed, so there is

voltage at terminal L4 of both thermostats

and to one side of both upper & lower

elements.

Tank is cold therefore both thermostats

are closed at terminal T2 (calling for heat).

This completes the circuit through the

thermostats and allows current to flow

through the elements.

Sequence of Operation- Double Element, Simultaneous Operation, 3 Phase.

When either thermostat is satisfied, it will

open at terminal T2, interrupting current

flow through the corresponding element. As

both thermostats satisfy, the system will be

in stand-by mode waiting for the next call

for heat. Thermostats will operate

independent of the other.
