DUAL BULB SELECTION
On the dual bulb units, indoor and outdoor bulbs are
determined by the ratio selected (see Table-2). Ratio refers to
the outdoor air temperature change compared to the water
temperature change. The dial setpoint is the water
temperature setpoint when the outdoor temperature is 70°F.
To select ratio, it is necessary to know only: (1) outdoor design
temperature, (2) maximum water temperature at outdoor
design temperature, and (3) desired water temperature at
70°F outdoors. Use Table-3 to determine the required ratio
based on this information and set the dial per item (3).
Note: If a 1-1/2:1 ratio is selected, the extra dial supplied
with the unit must be used.
Example: Select ratio for an installation with a -10°F design
temperature and estimated supply water temperature of 75°F
at 70°F outdoors and 125°F at -10°F outdoors. From Table-3,
-10°F for 1-1/2:1 ratio, note by interpolation (70°F to 123°F
with dial at 70°F, 80°F to 133°F with dial at 80°F) that water
temperature varies from 75°F to 128°F as outdoor
temperature drops from 70°F to -10°F.
For this application, the 1-1/2:1 ratio should be selected. The
extra dial supplied with the unit would be used, and the dial set
at 75°F.

Procedure for Remote Bulb Mounting
Air Bulb Models — Mounting in Return Air Duct
1. Remove cover and provide two holes for #10 round head
screws using the housing as the template or by using the
dimensions shown in Figure-2.
2. Partially insert the mounting screws in the screw holes.
Fit the housing over the screws, slide housing down on
the screws and tighten the screws.
Air Bulb Models —
Mounting Outside of Return Air Duct
1. Prepare duct for mounting by cutting hole and providing
mounting screw holes per Figure-2.
2. Fabricate a cover as shown in Figure-3.
3. Carefully roll bulbs toward back of unit and insert through
2-1/4" x 2-1/2" (57 mm x 64 mm) hole.
4. Remove cover and attach unit to duct with #10 screws.
5. Attach cover over 2-1/4" x 2-1/2" (57 mm x 64 mm) hole.
