MAXIMUM STORAGE SETPOINT
If the measured storage temperature rises above the Maximum Storage Setpoint, the relay is turned off. The relay remains
off until the storage temperature drops below the Maximum Storage Setpoint less the Maximum Storage Differential.
The Maximum Storage Setpoint stops the transfer of heat when the storage temperature rises above the Maximum
Storage Setpoint, which prevents the storage tank from over heating. Turning off the relay allows heat to be drawn out of
the tank to satisfy any heating loads without heat being returned to the tank from the heat source, thus lowering the tank
temperature.

MINIMUM SOURCE SETPOINT
If the measured source temperature drops below the Minimum Source Setpoint, the relay is turned off. The relay remains
off until the source temperature rises above the Minimum Source Setpoint plus the Minimum Source Differential.
The Source Minimum Setpoint does not provide freeze protection; it only stops the transfer of heat when the source
temperature falls below the Minimum Source Setpoint. The heat source is still susceptible to freezing. Turning off the relay
allows the heat source to gain heat by stopping the heat transfer to the storage tank.

T SETPOINT
The control measures the difference between the source and the storage temperatures (T). When the measured T is
greater than the T setpoint, the relay is turned on to transfer heat from the source to the storage. If the T drops below
the T Setpoint less the T Differential, the relay is turned off.
