Description
The Adjustable Fan or Limit Thermostats with a temperature range of 175-215 degrees Fahrenheit and a 40-degree Fahrenheit differential are versatile and essential devices used in heating systems, particularly in furnaces. These thermostats are designed to monitor and control temperature levels within the heating system, ensuring efficient and safe operation.
One of the notable features of these thermostats is their adjustable temperature range. With a range of 175-215 degrees Fahrenheit, these thermostats allow precise control over when the heating system's fan or limit functions are activated. Users can set the desired temperature point within this range to ensure that the heating system operates at the optimal temperature for comfort and energy efficiency.
The 40-degree Fahrenheit differential is a crucial parameter that determines the thermostat's switching behavior. In this context, "differential" refers to the temperature difference between when the thermostat switches the heating system on and when it switches it off. With a 40-degree differential, the thermostat will turn on the heating system when the temperature falls to the lower end of the range (175 degrees Fahrenheit) and turn it off when it reaches the upper end (215 degrees Fahrenheit).
These thermostats are designed to open on temperature rise, which means that they activate the heating system's fan or limit functions when the temperature exceeds the setpoint. This is a common configuration for ensuring that the heating system operates within the desired temperature range and maintains a comfortable environment.
Installation and calibration of these Adjustable Fan or Limit Thermostats should be carried out by qualified HVAC technicians or heating system professionals. Proper calibration ensures that the thermostats respond accurately to temperature changes and provide precise control over the heating system.
