SYSTEM WIRING CONTINUED - Specialty Applications
The Auxiliary Feature
can be used to
activate DeHumidify
Operations on
Variable or Constant
Speed HVAC Systems.
The UZC4 can be set up
to control DeHumidify
operations on most any
H e a t
P u m p
Conventional HVAC
system. The UZC4 will
also activate a unique
D e h u m i d i f y C o n t r o l
Algorithm when the De-
humidify demand is
d e t e c t e d . W h e n a
separate control calls for
Dehumidification, the
UZC4 will activate "Y1",
"G" and the Auxiliary
Relay, to signal the Air
Handler to slow the fan
down.
The UZC4 WILL ALSO
e n e r g i z e t h e ( E )
E m e r g e n c y o u t p u t
terminal to REHEAT the
cold discharge air and
Rapidly Dehumidify the
home. Energizing the
"E" during this cycle
prevents over-cooling
the home. A common
Customer complaint with
the DeHumidify cycle in
these HVAC systems.
NOTE1: The UZC4 will not
a c t i v a t e
d e h u m i d i f y
operations unless the "Y1"
(cool) signal is also detected
at Zone 1.
NOTE2: A cooling or heating
demand detected at any other
zone can cause a delay to
activate or will terminate the
De-Humidify operations.
NOTE3: Dehumidify can only
be achieved In (RA) Reverse
acting mode.
NOTE4: Do not use this
feature for commercial
applications per ASHRAE
90.1-2013.
