This thermostat is designed to operate line voltage electric resistance type heating.
A precision thermistor is employed to sense temperature. The thermistor resistance is read by a microprocessor to determine if there is a need for heat. If heat is required, the microprocessor turns on the heater. Once the need for heat is satisfied, the thermistor senses the change in temperature and causes the microprocessor to turn off the heater. The microprocessor will keep the heater on for at least two minutes before allowing a temperature change to turn it off again. As a result of using this method of temperature control, the thermostat can provide greater comfort and energy savings. To obtain even greater energy savings, this model can be easily placed into an economy/setback mode.
Temperature Range: 40.0°F to 85.0°F (4.5°C to 29.5°C)
Display Format: Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
Sampling Rate: Every second
Accuracy: ±1.0°F
Power Source: 208VAC - 240VAC, 50 - 60Hz
Load: 16 amps resistive or 1/2 horsepower
This RLV thermostat can detect several internal errors and can shut down safely and properly in the event one of these errors.
If the display shows "Ur" or "Or" there is thermistor error. When the thermistor returns to normal, the thermostat will continue to function. If the thermistor does not return to normal, the thermostat will be inoperable. If a severe internal error occurs the display will show "dEAd" and will be permanently inoperable. If a less severe error occurs the display will show "EOL". The thermostat will continue to partially function, but with a setpoint of 40°F to avoid damage from freezing.
This device should be installed and serviced by a qualified electrician. The thermostat has been designed to mount to a standard 2" X 4" electrical outlet box. Leveling of the thermostat is not required. Mounting screws are provided. Mount the thermostat about five feet above the floor in an area with good air circulation.
Avoid mounting the thermostat where it will be affected by drafts, air from ducts, and radiant heat sources such as appliances or the sun.
"Stop" should not be used as a disconnect from power to the heating unit. If the thermostat or heating unit needs servicing, it must be disconnected at the source. This device should only be serviced by a qualified electrician.
Mounting Detail
Adjusting Comfort Setpoint:
(For Installation Test)
The heating limit is the maximum room temperature the thermostat will allow even if the setpoint is higher.
Programmable Range: 40.0°F to 85.0°F (4.5°C to 29.5°C)
The programming mode has a time limit of 5 minutes. The timer is automatically activated on initiation of the programming mode. At the end of 5 minutes the thermostat will resume normal operation.
User Note: The top of this unit will become warm to the touch. This is a normal operation. Internal heating is employed to continuously convect air through the thermostat, thereby improving room air temperature measurement.
To enter economy setpoint mode
To exit economy setpoint mode and enter comfort setpoint mode:
While in normal operating mode, the slide switch should be in the On position. While in the On mode the thermostat will be active until the desired setpoint is reached.
When slide switch is in the Stop position the thermostat will not call for heating unless the temperature drops below 40°F (5°C). At this time the thermostat will be active until the temperature reaches 40°F. This mode may be useful to prevent pipes freezing while on vacation, etc.
When the power goes off the current parameters will be saved and then restored when power returns.
