Test Procedure

Mechanical Thermostat

1.Disconnect the dispenser from the power source.

2.Disconnect the black wire of the control thermo- stat from the black lead from the limit thermo- stat.

3.Remove bulb from the tank.

4.Check the voltage across black wire on the con- trol thermostat and the white pole on the termi- nal block with the tank heater switch in the “ON” lower position with a voltmeter. Connect the dis- penser to the power source. The indication must be:

a)120 volts ac for two wire 120 volt models.

b)120 volts ac for three wire 120/208 volt or 120/240 volt models.

c)240 volts ac for two wire 240 volt models.

5.Disconnect the dispenser from the power source.

If voltage is present as described the control thermo- stat is operating properly. Reinstall bulb into the tank. If voltage is not present as described, replace the ther- mostat.

Electronic Thermostat (Optional)

1.Disconnect the dispenser from the power source.

2.Disconnect the black wire of the control thermo- stat from the black lead from the limit thermostat.
