The Honeywell L8124L1011/U is a combination high limit, low limit, and circulator control designed for hydronic heating systems that incorporate domestic hot water service. It is suitable for use with oil-fired or gas-fired boilers operating with immersion well sensors. The control provides temperature regulation, circulator control, and burner cut-off based on system demand and operating limits.
This model is configured for horizontal immersion mounting and includes a diaphragm-type powerhead for reliable temperature response. It operates on a 24 VAC control circuit and supports multiple zoning configurations when used with additional relays or zone valves.
Core Functions
High Limit Function: Interrupts burner operation when water temperature exceeds setpoint, protecting the boiler from overheating.
Low Limit and Circulator Control: Maintains boiler temperature for domestic hot water priority and controls the circulator accordingly.
Horizontal Mounting: Designed for horizontal immersion wells; requires 3-inch insertion depth for proper sensor contact.
Multi-Zone Capability: Compatible with multi-zone heating systems using additional relays or zone valves.
Control Voltage: Operates on standard 24 VAC for integration with low-voltage HVAC control circuits.
