Argo Switching Relays

Do you know if I can connect the Argo ARM-2P switching relay with my L8124A aquastat? If so how? The ARM-2P does not have ZC/ZR terminals, only X1/X1 and X2/X2.
Thanks.

  • Nick , do you have

    the 8124 controlling a circulator from terminal C1 ? If it doesn't , you can connect the T-T of the aquastat to the X-X terminals of the Argo . I'm not sure if it's X1 or X2 - whichever end switch makes on a call for heat in the Argo .

    ARGO Switching Relays.

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Yes, my aquastat L8124A controls my first zone circulator. I'm adding two more circulator zones and I'm trying to figure out if the ARGO ARM-2P I bought will work. The ARGO technical support told me I should return it and get a three zone ARM-3P which has the ZC/ZR terminals. (The ARM-2P doesn't have ZC/ZR, only X2/X2 isolated switch.) The only thing is I don't need three zones on the -3P, just two.

    sounds like you need

    to control 3 zones..

    "...my aquastat L8124A controls my first zone circulator. I'm adding two more circulator zones... "

    2+1=3

    Better to control all 3 from a central control point, and have the ARM 3P control the boiler, than to have to spaghetti wire 2 systems.

    That's

    what I'd do too.
