Control input wiring
The internal controller offers four input control types, which are field adjustable. The factory default control type for Model 1150 is
the Automatic Steam Humidifier Control, on-off configuration as shown in Figure 20.
The factory default control type for Model 1160/1180 is the Automatic Steam Humidifier Control, modulating configuration as
shown in Figure 21.
IMPORTANT: For Model 1150 on/off control, verify that the shunt on the JP2 jumper is placed over the 2 & 3 position. For Model
1160/1180 modulating control, verify that the shunt on the JP2 jumper is placed over the 1 & 2 position.
To change the input control type on Model 1160/1180 to signal by others, see Figure 22 for a 0-10 VDC signal, and see Figure 23
for a 4-20 mA signal (input resistance 250 ohms).
IMPORTANT: Note the internal controller slide switch S1 settings in each control input wiring diagram.
