Description
This water and/or auger safety thermostat is commonly found on the following boiler models:
- Trianco Greenflame
- WES E-Compact
- WOODCO
- Turco
- Bioflame
Product number: 400230
The High-Limit Thermostat (STL) is an essential safety device for biomass boilers, designed to monitor and control the temperature within the boiler system. This thermostat shuts down the boiler when the temperature reaches 95 - 100°C, ensuring safe operation by preventing overheating. However, it allows the pumps to continue running, aiding in temperature reduction. Once the temperature falls below approximately 75°C, the STL can be reset mechanically.
Features
-
Overheat Protection: Shuts down the boiler at temperatures between 95 - 100°C to prevent overheating.
-
Continuous Pump Operation: Allows pumps to continue running even when the boiler is shut down, helping to reduce the temperature.
-
Manual Reset: Can be mechanically reset once the temperature falls below approximately 75°C.
-
Safety Assurance: Monitors boiler temperature to ensure safe operation and prevent potential hazards.
-
Durable Construction: Built to withstand the high temperatures and demanding conditions of biomass boiler systems.
-
Easy Integration: Designed for straightforward installation into existing biomass boiler setups.
Why You Should Buy
This high limit (STL) thermostat provides essential overheat protection, ensuring that your boiler operates within safe temperature limits and preventing potential damage and safety risks.
Understanding the High-Limit Thermostat (STL)
The High-Limit Thermostat functions by continuously monitoring the temperature within the biomass boiler. If the temperature exceeds the safe range of 95 - 100°C, the STL automatically shuts down the boiler to prevent overheating. Despite the shutdown, the pumps continue to run, aiding in cooling the system. Once the temperature drops below approximately 75°C, the thermostat can be manually reset to resume normal boiler operation. The most common cause of temperature spikes is poor or no circulation, so it's important to check that there is a heat load connected to the boiler and that the pump is functioning correctly.
