Hello

I'm looking for any information available for replacing the High Limit Temperature Control part number 510-312-250 on this boiler.

TIA

    This is from the WM discontinued parts section.

    WM does have a habit of changing part numbers with revisions.

    Neither the 24 volt or millivolt part numbers match what you have. Almost any high limit will work, though.

    Probably, but I'm using the part number and description from the discontinued parts catalogue and they do not call it an aquastat like they do elsewhere

    Here's the part installed. It's really hard to get a good picture.

    The left side terminal is wired to the two fan relays

    The right side terminal to the gas valve

    Thank you

    Thank you for the quick replies everyone.

    I'm only able to find 510-312-250.

    Any help on how to replace it would be great.

    I'm sorry I'm not being more clear.

    I'm looking for installation instructions for this part.

    that is just an aquastat that is open on rise with a 30 degree differential. why are you looking for one? they can go bad but that really isn't doing much work so it isn't super likely to go bad

    does it just unscrew?

    @tonynap There is a screw that holds the control into the aquastat well. It is a slotted screw on the top of the control. I think it is only slightly visible in the picture.

    Losen the screw and you may have to pull up on the clamp retainer and pull the control out of the sensing well.

    Don't unscrew the well with water in the boiler.

    Go to the link that @neilc posted above to see the control.
