SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read this entire installation manual before beginning installation of the Aprilaire 6000 Series Zone Control System. For questions call Aprilaire
customer support at (800) 334-6011 or visit AprilairePartners.com.
1. 120 volts may cause serious injury from electrical shock. Leave power disconnected until installation is complete.
2. The system is designed for indoor use only. Do not expose any of the components to moisture.
1. Turn off the system power before removing or installing any wires into the terminals of any component of the system. Wiring with a live
circuit can lead to electrical shorts that can damage components.
2. Installation must be done in accordance with all applicable codes.
3. Installer should touch a grounded metal object before handling the components of the system. This will prevent any static discharge that
may cause damage.
4. A 6000 Series Zone Control System may not control temperature properly unless the heating and cooling system is properly sized and
balanced.
5. Insufficient air flow or excessive temperatures through the heating and cooling system could result in equipment damage. Refer to the
manufacturer's recommendations for minimum safe airflow and temperature requirements.
6. Do not mount the 6000 Series Control or Sensors on any exterior wall or equipment supply ductwork.
7. Do not install the system components where temperatures exceed 158°F (70°C) or are below 32°F (0°C), non-condensing.
8. Improper system installation could cause water damage from frozen pipes. Check system operation after installation.

  • Page 25: Sequence Of Operation

    HEATING OPERATION When a zone makes a call for heating, the 6000 Series Zone Control System will initiate a heating call to the equipment and close the dampers for all zones that are not calling for heat. Following a 2-minute (heat/cool or auxiliary) or 4-minute (heat pump) minimum on time, the heating call will end when (1) all zones stop calling for heating, (2) the call has exceeded the 20 minute heating/cooling changeover time limit while a cooling call exists or (3) the call is interrupted because the discharge air temperature sensor reaches the DAT HIGH LIMIT setting.
  • Page 26 When a cooling call occurs from Zone 2, the 6000 Series Zone Control System will initiate a first stage cooling call to the heat pump, because the total number of zones calling is 1 which does not meet the Zones to Stage setting of 2. If Zone 3 then initiates a call for cooling the 6000 Series Zone Control System would stage up to a second stage cooling call to the heat pump, because the number of zones calling is now 2.
  • Page 27: Troubleshooting

    • Check for 24VAC between the cooling terminal (Y) and the transformer common. If 24VAC is present, the 6000 Series Hub is functional. Check the cooling system to find the cause of the problem.
