Order Kit No. 142-0425 for gauge and tee for 1/8-inch NPT (two required). · Provide adequate clearance for the sensing tube. Troubleshooting If the limitem fails to operate properly, use Table 3 as a troubleshooting guide. Ensure that the thermostat receives 18 to 30 psi (124 to 207 kPa) of clean, dry, oil-free supply air. Also, use a test gauge with a length of 3/16-inch ID rubber hose to measure the return pressure at the test port if permanent gauges are not available. Item Number 129-166-04, Rev.

Complaint Check Supply Air Pressure Probable Cause Low Pressure Corrective Action As Required Return Line pressure stays at approx. zero Return Line pressure stays at approx. supply pressure Excessive air leakage from exhaust valve Press down exhaust valve If return is still zero psi If return pressure increases Using a If return pressure screwdriver, rotate remains high the setpoint dial counterclockwise to the limit stop If return pressure drops to zero Supply and return line connection Defective valve assembly Out of calibration or damaged sensing element Defective valve assembly Out of calibration Connections are interchanged Replace thermostat 1. Recalibrate 2. With 6 to 9 psi (41 to 62 kPa) return pressure, vary temperature at the bulb. If no change in return pressure, replace thermostat. Replace thermostat Recalibrate Reverse the supply and return connections Installation Figure 1. TH 356 Rigid Bulb LIMITEM. Alternate Duct Mounting TH 356 Rigid Bulb LIMITEM® Duct Mounting (See Figure 1.) The Swivel Flange Mounting Kit Part Number 356-090 is available for mounting the limitem in ducts as small as 13 inches (330 mm) wide. Flange, lock-nut and sheet metal screws are provided for duct mounting. 1. Remove the flange from the limitem and use the flange as a template. Mark the location of the center hole and three screw holes. Use a 5/8-inch drill bit to drill the center hole and a 1/4-inch drill bit for the screw holes. 2. Slip the flange over the rigid bulb and secure with the lock-nut. 3. Fasten the limitem to the duct with the sheet metal screws provided. 4. Attach the air gauges and tees in the supply and return lines. Swivel Flange Mounting (See Figure 2) 1. Use the swivel flange as a template to mark the location of the center hole and three screw holes. 2. Drill the holes and attach the flange. 3. Remove the standard mounting flange from the limitem. 4. Carefully thread the limitem through the 3/8-inch NPT tapped swivel socket. 5. Fasten the flange to the duct with the sheet metal screws provided. Page 2 of 6 Siemens Industry, Inc. Installation, continued Figure 2. Swivel Flange Mounting Kit Part Number 356-090. Well Mounting · Exercise care when installing the LIMITEM into a well. · The LIMITEM must fit freely in the well to operate properly. · Screw the LIMITEM into the well, fingertight. TH 357 Remote Bulb and Averaging Bulb LIMITEM® Mounting the TH 357 LIMITEM Body (See Figure 3.) · A 1/8-inch NPT hole is provided for mounting. Document No. 129-166 Installation Instructions March 17, 2022 · The mounting bracket, furnished with the thermostat, may be attached to any flat surface and the thermostat body threaded onto the protruding pipe nipple. · When metal tubing is used for the supply and return air lines, this tubing may also serve to support the body of the thermostat. Mounting the TH 357 LIMITEM Bulb · When mounting the bulb through a metal surface, protect the capillary by using a mounting flange with a rubber grommet in Kit 163-172. Remote Bulb · Use a remote bulb holder Number 808-517 to support the remote bulb. The holder may be shortened to fit small ducts. · When installing the remote bulb in a pipeline, use copper well Grainger number 38Y210. · When the bulb is mounted in a unit ventilator, use coil clip Number 356-115 to support the bulb in the air stream through the coil. See Figure 5 and Figure 6. Figure 3. TH 357 Remote and Averaging Bulb LIMITEM. Siemens Industry, Inc. Page 3 of 6 Document No. 129-166 Installation Instructions March 17, 2022 Installation, continued Averaging Bulb Mounting Averaging bulbs require some means of support for the bulb and capillary. · Use a coil clip, Part Number 356-115 (Figures 6 and 7) or a capillary clip, Part Number 7421700060 (Figure 4), to support the bulb if there is easy access to the coil. · For duct mounting where access to the coil is limited, see Figure 8. Use flange Number 808-412 and a length of 3/8-inch (9.5 mm) OD hard copper tube to expose the bulb to the air leaving the coil within the duct. Figure 5. Clip Mounted on Coil. Figure 4. Capillary Clip Number 7421700060 (Pkg of 100). Figure 6. Coil Clip Number 356-115. Figure 7. Installation of TH 357 Averaging Bulb in a Duct. Page 4 of 6 Siemens Industry, Inc. Document No. 129-166 Installation Instructions March 17, 2022 Calibration Change setpoint 1. Remove the cover. 2. With a screwdriver, turn the dial adjustment screw to change to the desired setpoint. See Figure 8. Figure 8. LIMITEM® Cover Removed. Calibrate 1. Using a test thermometer, accurately measure the temperature at the bulb. 2. Set the dial to the bulb temperature by turning the dial adjustment screw with a screwdriver. NOTE: You must use a screwdriver. Do not attempt to change the dial by rotating it with your hand. 3. If a permanent return air gauge is not installed, use the pressure test port. See Figure 8 for its location. 4. Loosen the test port screw about 1/2 turn and slip a 3/16-inch ID rubber hose connected to the test gauge over the pressure test port. See Figure 9. 5. If the return pressure does not read 7 to 8 psi (48-55 kPa), turn the dial adjustment screw with a screwdriver until pressure is 7 to 8 psi (48-55 kPa). 6. Loosen the dial screws and turn dial until the temperature at the bulb and dial is identical. Tighten the screws. 7. The thermostat is now calibrated and the setpoint may be changed to desired setpoint. Sensitivity Adjustment The sensitivity adjustment is factory set with the sensitivity spring tab in position 6 of the spring retainer. This is approximately mid span of the sensitivity. See Table 4 for other settings. Table 4.
