What is the working principle of pneumatic thermostat?
A pneumatic thermostat is one that controls the air handling system by using an air-filled control tube to send signals. Pneumatic thermostats typically use a bi-metallic strip that responds to temperature changes, and correspondingly increases or decreases the air pressure in the control tube. Separate components within the air handling system respond to the pressure changes in the control tube to activate heating or cooling to occur through the ductwork.http://www.dr-fix-it.com/pneum1.html
