Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat- WPT-800 Series
1
Overview
The Cypress Envirosystems Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat (WPT) retrofits an
existing pneumatic thermostat to provide Direct Digital Control (DDC) like zone
control functionality at a fraction of the time and cost without disturbing occupants.
The WPT enables remote monitoring of zone temperature, branch pressure, remote
control of setpoints, and programmable setback or setup of the pneumatic HVAC
systems. It also enables integration with utility Demand Response programs.
The WPT can function either as a standalone system or can be integrated with an
existing Building Management System via BACnet/IP. As a result, the WPT helps a
building owner and tenants save energy by implementing indoor temperature policies,
improve comfort, and reduce the maintenance cost of the legacy pneumatic HVAC
systems.
1.1
Components
The WPT- 800 Series kit includes the following components:
WPT
Universal Wall Bracket
Mounting screws, #6 x 1" self-tapping (x2)
Wall Anchors
CR123 batteries (x2)
1.2
Prerequisites for Installation
The WPT relies on a wireless network for communication unless operating in a
standalone mode. When using the WPT in a standalone mode, these prerequisites
may be skipped. Before installing the WPT, the wireless network must be set up.
The following tasks must be completed before proceeding to WPT installation:
Installation of WPT Green Box and USB Hub (HUSB)
Installation of WPT Repeaters (RWAL)
Assignment of a network ID to the Green Box
Assignment of a unique node ID to each WPT and/or WPT in the network
Manuals for the WPT Green Box, HUSB, and repeaters can be found at
