Adjustments and Calibration

Calibration

These thermostats are factory calibrated and normal-

ly do not require further calibration. If it is necessary 

to change calibration:
1.  Remove the cover and gauge-tap rubber caps.
2.  Install a gauge on the gauge tap using 3/32" ID 

tube. 

3.  Measure the ambient temperature with an 

accurate thermometer.

4.  Move the setpoint slider to the measured ambient 

temperature. 

5.  Use a 1/16" hex wrench and turn the calibration 

adjustment until the test gauge indicates the 

desired pressure. (Clockwise rotation decreases 

the output pressure.)

6.  Replace the gauge tap rubber cap after 

calibrating

.

7. 

Place the setpoint slider to the desired 

temperature and replace the cover.

Throttling Range

Throttling range is the temperature required to 

change the thermostat output pressure from 3 to 15 

psi. These thermostats are factory-set for a 3° F throt-

tling range. The approximate throttling range setting 

is stamped on each lever in both °F and °C.  If this 

setting is changed, recheck calibration afterwards.
1.   Remove the scale plate. 
2.  Slide the black “TR” adjuster to appropriate 

value/ location.

NOTE:

  The hole in the “TR” adjuster fits a 1/16" 

hex wrench. Gently rotate the adjuster 

back and forth while sliding. 

Do not turn 

excessively!

 

3.  Rotate back to a “square” position after 

adjustment.

4.   Replace the scale plate (see the Mounting section).
