Goldline GL-30-LCO Solar Control Package with Power Cord and Sensors  - 110 Volts

The Goldline GL-30-LCO differential temperature control is designed to provide maximum operating efficiency and flexibility to effectively manage today's innovative solar energy systems. It is a continuation of the advanced electronic technology which produced the popular C-30 and CM-30 controllers - standards of the solar industry since 1975, with hundreds of thousands of units installed worldwide.

With an adjustable high limit of 50º-104ºF, the GL-30 is capable of handling most differential temperature control functions for operation of domestic water heating and sophisticated space heating and cooling. The GL-30 is designed to control recirculation, drain-back and closed loop systems.

Replacement unit for CM30 and C30:
• Includes control unit, power cord, and sensors

NOTE: TD-GL & DIX-30 Temperature Displays are discontinued


LED Indicators
Three highly visible LEDs show:
• Power to control 
• Power out from control
• Power out from control due to a recirculation mode to protect
• the system from freeze damage.

GL-30 Output
The GL-30 output is rated at 20 Amps and is designed to directly
operate a pump or fan for heat collection when the controller is sensing an appropriate temperature differential.

Differential
The GL-30 has an adjustable differential with a range of 8º to 24ºF. Solar systems with long pipe runs normally require a higher
turn-on differential temperature, and open loop systems with short pipe runs usually require a lower turn-on differential temperature for optimum performance. The GL-30 offers versatility to tailor controls to numerous specific systems designs.

Storage High Limit
The GL-30 allows you to set a high limit storage temperature from 110º to 230ºF.

Recirculation Freeze Protection
Recirculation freeze protection, when enabled, turns the GL-30
output on to circulate warmer storage water through the collectors when near freezing temperatures are reached at the collector sensor.

System Test Switch
The system test switch manually switches the GL-30 to ON, AUTO,
or OFF for complete control over the system at all times.

General Control and Sensor Trouble-Shooting Tips:

All of the GoldLine (formally Independent Energy) controls (including C30, CM30, G30 and GL30 series) and some of the Heliotrope General (HG) DTT series controls incorporated the use of 10k sensors.  Some of the earlier HG controls and some other lesser known brands used 3k sensors.

To determine the type of sensor, the resistance must be measured in ohms (using a volt/ohm meter) when the sensor is at 77 degrees F.  10k measures 10,000 ohms and 3k measures 3,000 ohms. As the temperature goes up, the resistance goes down. 

Resistance can be checked at any temperature, and then
convert the ohm reading measured to the temperature equivalent
by using the conversion chart.
