AUTOMATIC SAFETY FEATURES
L120 LOW LIMIT SWITCH
This limit switch is mounted on the exhaust blower housing and has 2 main functions:
Should the fire happen to go out, for any reason, this limit switch will shut the stove off when the exhaust temperature drops below 120° F.
Upon starting the appliance, the AcuTron control board has a 15 minute “Lighting Mode”, if the stove exhaust does not reach 120° F in that 15 minutes the stove will shut off. As soon as the stove exhaust does reach 120° F, the limit switch opens and the AcuTron enters a 5 minute “Safety Delay” mode.
F140 FAN LIMIT SWITCH
Your pellet appliance has a convection fan control limit switch. The room air fan's (F140) temperature limit snap switch automatically operates the fan on high when your stove is producing heat faster than the fan is carrying it into the room. This may occur when the heat control lever is set at [3 or 4] and the FAN SPEED is set to a very low or off setting. After the fan runs at this automatic high setting a few minutes, it may cycle back to its lower setting and may continue to cycle between [HIGH] and your selected setting. The circulation (room air) fan cycling from high to low is a normal condition as well as a safety feature of your appliance.
To compensate for the fan cycling, adjust the FAN SPEED to a higher setting.
L250 HIGH LIMIT SWITCH
Your pellet appliance has a high temperature limit switch installed. If the temperature at the back of the firebox reaches approximately 250° F., the switch will shut off the electricity going to the Vacuum Switch and to the Auger Motor. The auger will automatically stop, and the appliance will shut down when the exhaust temperature cools (120° F). If this happens call your dealer or Dansons Customer Service
IT IS IMPORTANT TO FIND THE REASON WHY THE UNIT OVERHEATED.
VACUUM SWITCH
This safety device (mounted on the back panel pillar) detects vacuum in the exhaust system, firebox, and air intake. If the exhaust blower fails, the vent pipe becomes plugged, the viewing door is open, or if you are out of pellets, this switch will sense that there is a lack of vacuum and will stop the auger from continuing to feed pellets.
HOPPER LID SWITCH
This device is mounted inside the hopper.and is connected to the auger feed system.……
If the hopper lid is OPEN the switch
WILL STOP THE AUGER FEED SYSTEM. This is to prevent fingers, clothing or other objects from coming in contact with the auger.
The auger is capable of causing serious injury and this switch MAY NOT be disconnected.
