Actuators
Electric heating coils, controlled via an analog output on the DXR2, can receive an enable via a relay or triac on the DXR2.
Safety thermostat
A binary overtemperature (open contact) protection can be connected on the DXR2 for all versions of the electric heating coil application. The application switches off the electric heating coils at device protection priority if overtemperature protection is enabled.

WARNING
Improper installation of electric heating coils can result in fire and cause destruction of life and property.
- Install a high temperature cut-out switch on all electric heating elements.
- Ensure that all wiring and installation conform to applicable safety codes and regulations.
