Room Sensor and Rear Shield Installation
Room Sensor Installation
Fig. 22
The room sensor is a small temperature sen-
sor on the end of a 60" gray wire. This sensor is
installed much like a standard wall thermostat. Be-
cause it is so small, it can be hidden along the trim
of a doorway or even up the leg of a coffee table.
There is a remote room sensor port on the rear of
the unit for easy external connection. Use standard
18-2 thermostat wire to extend the distance to the
desired location (100' maximum). The room sen-
sor should be installed in the location where you want
to control the temperature.
NOTE: Distances of more than 25 feet from
the unit or in another room are not recommended.
The room sensor is essential for the P61's excel-
lent efficiency.
NOTE: It is recommended that the room
sensor be installed, even if only installed on the
rear of the unit as a return air sensor.
Rear Shields
5/16" Hex
Head
Screws (2
on each
side)
The rear isolated shields are split in the middle for
easy removal. Each shield has two 5/16" hex head
screws that only need to be loosened (NOT
REMOVED) to allow the shield to slide away from
the unit. NOTE: It is not recommended that the
unit be operated with the shields removed, due
to the hot and moving parts which they protect.
