In cases in which property damage may result from malfunction of the thermostat a backup system should be used. Where critical or high value products are to be maintained, an approved temperature limit should be wired in series with this thermostat. In less critical applications, a second thermostat with alarm contacts can be used to provide redundancy.
A separate S.P.D.T. load switch (not supplied) must be used in applications requiring control of both heat and cooling. Failure to provide the load transfer switch could result in control failure and equipment damage.
