Product Description
This document describes the hardware installation procedures for the
Single Duct Variable Air Volume / Variable Volume Temperature
Controllers (ECL-VAVS-O, ECL-VAVS, ECL-VAV, ECL-VVTS, and
ECL-VAV-N), and the 10-Point Programmable Controller (ECL-103).
The Distech Controls Variable Air Volume / Variable Volume
Temperature product line is designed to control and monitor various
types of HVAC equipment such as baseboards, single and multi-stage
duct heaters, fans, valves, lights, etc. When connected to a Wireless
Receiver, this product line can be used with a variety of wireless
battery-less sensors and switches.
The ECL-VAV model supports a range of Smart Room Control
modules that expand the controller's range of control to include lighting
and shades/sunblinds with the ECx-Light and ECx-Blind series control
modules. This controller also supports the EC-Multi-Sensor ceiling-
mounted sensor and its associated EC-Remote remote control.
Each controller uses the L

This document describes the hardware installation procedures for the
following controllers: ECL-VAVS-O, ECL-VAVS, ECL-VAV, ECL-VVTS,
ECL-VAV-N and ECL-103.
For more information on the specific layout and functionality
of each controller, please refer to their individual
datasheets.
General Installation Requirements
For proper installation and subsequent operation of the controller, pay
special attention to the following recommendations:
-
It is recommended that the controller(s) be kept at room
temperature for at least 24 hours before installation to allow any
condensation that may have accumulated due to low temperature
during shipping/storage to evaporate.

-
Upon unpacking the product, inspect the contents of the carton for
shipping damages. Do not install damaged controllers.
-
Avoid areas where corroding, deteriorating or explosive vapors,
fumes or gases may be present.
-
Allow for proper clearance around the controller's enclosure, wiring
terminals, and service pin (see Figure 14) to provide easy access
for hardware configuration and maintenance, and to ventilate heat
generated by the controller. Remember to record the 12-character
®
Neuron ID located on a sticker on top of the device (shown on a
sticker below the barcode), for later commissioning. When installed
in an enclosure, select one that provides sufficient surface area to
dissipate the heat generated by the controller and by any other
devices installed in the enclosure. A metal enclosure is preferred. If
necessary, provide active cooling for the enclosure.
-
The controller's datasheet specifies the power consumption
(amount of heat generated), the operating temperature range, and
other environmental conditions the controller is designed to operate
under.
-
Ensure that all equipment is installed according to local, regional,
and national regulations.
-
Do not drop the controller or subject it to physical shock.
-
If the controller is used and/or installed in a manner not specified by
Distech Controls, the functionality and the protection provided by
the controller may be impaired.
Any type of modification to any Distech Controls product will
void the product's warranty.
Before installation of the Wireless Receiver, verify that local
communication regulations allow the installation of wireless
devices and available frequencies to be supported in your
area. Refer to the Open-to-Wireless™ Solution Guide for
more information.
Take reasonable precautions to prevent electrostatic
discharges to the controller when installing, servicing or
operating the controller. Discharge accumulated static
electricity by touching one's hand to a well-grounded object
before working with the controller.
