Overview
HeaterSTOP HS-230-3A is a hall heating controller that limits how long a heating-on signal can remain active.
It helps prevent community halls and similar buildings from being heated continuously when a timeswitch or thermostat is accidentally left in manual/on mode.
Best for:
- Community halls and similar shared buildings.
- Reducing wasted heating caused by controls being left on.
- Heating systems where a maximum single on-duration should be enforced.
How It Works
HeaterSTOP is wired in line with the timer or thermostat output signal. You set the maximum allowable duration for a heating-on signal, for example 7 hours.
When the signal stays on longer than the set period, HeaterSTOP stops the signal. It resets automatically when the heating signal is removed.
If a timeswitch has been left in manual/on mode and HeaterSTOP has timed out, turning the timeswitch off briefly resets HeaterSTOP and allows another maximum period.

FAQ
How do I decide the maximum time to set?
Use the longest heating period needed for a normal event, including warm-up and occupied time.
What happens if the timer is left on?
HeaterSTOP enforces the maximum uninterrupted period and resets when the heating signal goes off.
What systems is it compatible with?
The source description lists electronic thermostats and timeswitches, and electric, gas and oil heating systems.
