Honeywell TC500A Mounting Instructions

TC500A Commercial Thermostat
CONNECTED DEVICE FOR COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS
INTRODUCTION
TC500A Commercial Touchscreen Thermostat is designed
to be wall-mounted indoors. Mount in a clean, dry location
away from windows, air ducts, and other places where
environmental factors may affect temperature and
humidity readings. If you mount the Thermostat on the
interior of an outside wall, thoroughly insulate so outside
air behind the sensor does not affect the sensor reading.
To meet the requirements of the Americans with
Disabilities Act, mount no higher than 48" from the floor
and with a minimum clear floor space of 30" X 48" (760 X
1220 mm).

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause severe injury, death or property
damage.
Disconnect the power supply before beginning
installation to prevent electrical shock and
equipment damage. More than one power supply
may have to be disconnected.
MERCURY NOTICE
If this control is replacing a control that contains
mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old
control in the trash. Dispose of properly. Contact
your local waste management authority for
instructions regarding recycling and the proper
disposal of an old control. If you have questions,
contact Honeywell Customer Care Center.
Location
Do not install the Thermostat unit where it can be affected
by:
— drafts or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
— hot or cold air from ducts.
— radiant heat from sun or appliances.
— concealed pipes and chimneys.
— unheated (uncooled) areas such as an outside wall
behind the thermostat.
IMPORTANT
To avoid electrical interference, which can cause
erratic performances, keep wiring runs as short as
possible and do not run thermostat wires adja-
cent to the line voltage electrical distribution sys-
tems. Use shielded cable. The cable shield must
be grounded only at the controlled equipment
case.
WHEN USED TO SENSE ROOM TEMPERATURE
Install the Thermostat about 4 ft. (1.2m) above the floor in
an area with good air circulation at average temperature.
(See Fig. 1). Confirm mounting height meets Americans
with Disabilities Act requirements.
