WT8840 & WT8860 Trade
Water Heater Controls
APPLICATION
The WT88xx Water Heater Control is designed for use
in Standing Pilot applications using an immersion well
for water temperature sensing. All models of WT88xx
controls include an integrated NTC temperature
sensor.
The WT88xx controls are powered from a thermopile
heated by the standing pilot flame. CS88xx pilot
assemblies are designed for use with this control.
The immersion well for sensing water temperature
has matched NTC thermistor sensors. These sensors
provide the fail-safe mechanism through which the
WT88xx controls can provide both accurate water
temperature control as well as water temperature
limit (Temperature Cut-Out [TCO]) function.
