Installer must be a trained, experienced
serviceman.
2. Disconnect electricity before connecting wiring
to prevent electrical shock or equipment
damage.
3. Conduct a thorough checkout after the instal
lation is complete.
LOCATION
Locate the control on a solid area of the furnace
casing or jacket or on the discharge plenum. The stand
off plate furnishes a heat barrier, and a 1/4 inch
[6.4 mm] thick asbestos washer (Part No. 106638) is
provided to slip over the capillary for air seal between
the element clearance hole and the diaphragm power
head (see Fig. 4). Since the ambient temperature rating
is 190 F [88 C] at the switches, this heat barrier
should be adequate for all normal applications.
Locate element where it will be exposed to rapid
temperature changes in the furnace. After the fan
starts, the element temperature should be affected as
much as practicable by the changing temperature of
the outlet air and receive only enough radiant heat to
reduce element temperature lag. The element should
not touch any internal part of the furnace. When pro
vided use the furnace manufacturer’s recommendations
to determine the exact location (Fig. 3).

MOUNTING
1. Make a 7/8 inch [22.2 mm] diameter hole where
the element is to be inserted.
2. Loosen the cover screw and remove the cover
from the L4017.
3. Use the control as a template to mark the location
of the 2 mounting holes (see Fig. 1).
4. Punch or drill the holes for the mounting screws.
