DEVICE NAME FUNCTION
These limits monitor temperature along the back and top panels of
the heater and the brick core. If normal operating temperature is
exceeded, one or both of these switches will interrupt power to the
heating elements and the heater's control panel will display "CORE
FAIL". If the "CORE FAIL" message occurs repeatedly, verify
heater clearances have not been violated and that objects have not
fallen between the heater and the wall. If clearances are correct,
contact a service technician.
Monitors discharge air temperature and interrupts power to the
control circuit if normal operating temperature is exceeded. This
limit switch helps protect against the heating of objects which may
obstruct the air discharge area or violate grill clearances. If normal
operating temperature is exceeded, this switch will open . When
this switch opens, the discharge air system is disabled and the
heater’s control panel display will no longer illuminate. To reset
the system, press the manual reset button on the limit switch. If the
switch opens repeatedly, verify that grill clearances are not vio-
lated. If correct, contact a service technician.
If the heater is not in the upright position, this switch interrupts
power to the heating elements and the blower. This prevents the
heater from storing heat in or discharging heat from the brick core.
