SPECIFICATIONS
IMPORTANT
The specifications given in this publication do not include normal manufacturing tolerances; therefore, an individual unit might not exactly match the listed specifications. Also, this product is tested and calibrated under closely controlled conditions and some minor differences in performance can be expected if those conditions are changed.
T8700 TRADELINE® models include a thermostat, wallplate, decorator cover plate and owner’s guide. The package also includes a resistor for use with Taco zone valves. See Fig. 11.
Power:
T8700: 24 Vac nominal, 18 to 30 Vac, 60 Hz.
Electrical Ratings:
Heating: .02 to 1.2A run; 3.5A inrush.
Cooling: .02 to 1.2A run; 6.0A inrush.
Fan: .02 to 0.5A run; 2.5A inrush.
Current Draw:
T8700 Power Stealing Thermostat requires only 2.5 mA current draw when the thermostat calls for heat or cool and is compatible with most 24V systems. It can be used in most non-millivolt applications. See Power Stealing in the Operation section.
Temperature Adjustment:
Setpoint temperature is adjusted by using the or keys. One press changes the setpoint one degree; pressing and holding changes the setpoint several degrees.
Temperature Setting Range:
40°F (4°C) to 99°F (37°C).
Operational Ambient Temperature Range:
30°F (4°C) to 110°F (43°C).
Shipping Temperature Range:
-20°F (29°C) to 120°F (49°C).
Operating Relative Humidity:
5% to 90% RH, noncondensing.
Cycle Rates (at 50 Percent Load):
Heating: Selectable at 1, 3, 6 or 9 cph. See Table 2 for heating cycle rates and corresponding system equipment.
Cooling (T8700C): Fixed at 3 cph.

Mounting Decorator Cover
Plate and Wallplate to Wall
CAUTION
Damage To Heating/Cooling System Possible.
Be careful when handling wires during installation.
Disconnect power at furnace or at main breaker/fuse box before starting installation.
IMPORTANT
Position and level the wallplate for appearance only. The thermostat functions properly even when not level.
Mount decorator cover plate (if desired), wallplate, T8700 and the screws as follows; see Fig. 3:
RECYCLING NOTICE

Wiring
CAUTION
Damage To Heating/Cooling System Possible. Be careful when handling wires
during installation.
Disconnect power at furnace or at main breaker/fuse box.
IMPORTANT
Use an 18-gauge maximum wire for wiring the T8700 Thermostat.
All wiring must comply with local electrical codes and ordinances. A letter is located near each terminal for identification.
NOTE: To ensure proper mounting of thermostat, restrict all wiring to the left side of the terminals. See Fig. 4.
FOR WRAPAROUND, STRIP 7/16 IN. (11 mm)
FOR STRAIGHT INSERTION,
STRIP 5/16 IN. (8 mm)
