INSTALLATION

When Installing this Product...

1 Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow

them could damage the product or cause a hazardous condition.

2 Check the ratings given in the instructions and on

the product to make sure the product is suitable for your application.

3 Installer must be a trained, experienced service

technician.

4 After installation is complete, check out product

operation as provided in these instructions.

CAUTION

Disconnect power supply before connecting wiring to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.

Location and Mounting

Locate the C7189 Wall Mount Temperature Sensor where the setting will not be subjected to tampering.

1 Choose a location for the sensor on an inside wall

about 5 ft (1.5 m) above the floor. A horizontally mounted standard 2 x 4 in. (51 x 102 mm) junction box can also be used at the selected location for the C7189.

2 Be sure that the wire distance between the C7189

and the W8900 does not exceed 200 feet.

3 Make sure that there is good air circulation at

average temperature at the chosen location. Avoid the following locations because they can introduce errors in sensor measurements. See Fig. 1:

Hot areas caused by:

• Concealed pipes or ducts.

• Drafts from fireplaces or other heat sources.

• Convection or radiant heat from the sun or electrical equipment.

Cold areas caused by:

• Concealed pipes or ducts.

• Drafts from windows and doors.

• Unheated areas on the other side of the wall location.

Dead air areas:

• Behind doors, furniture and curtains.

• In corners and alcoves.

4 Mark the area on the wall where the C7189 Sensor

or junction box will be mounted.

C7189A WALL MOUNT TEMPERATURE SENSOR

5 Run cable to a hole at the selected wall location. Pull

approximately 3 inches of wire through the opening. Color-coded, 18 gauge thermostat wire is recommended.

NOTE: If the old thermostat has left marks on the wall

that are not covered by the C7189, order part no. 202689A Mounting Plate Accessory to mount between the wall and the C7189.

RECYCLING NOTICE

If this control is replacing a control that contains mercury in a sealed tube, do not place your old control in the trash.

Contact your local waste management authority for instructions regarding recycling and the proper disposal of any control containing mercury in a sealed tube.

If you have questions, call Honeywell Inc. at 1-800-468-1502, Monday through Friday, 7:00am to 5:30pm.

Wiring

CAUTION

Keep wiring at least one foot away from large inductive loads such as motors, line starters, lightning ballasts, and large power distribution panels. Failure to follow these wiring practices can introduce electrical interference (noise), which can cause erratic system operation. Use shielded cable to reduce interference when rerouting is not possible. Ground the shielded cable to the GND terminal on the W8900.

Important

Erratic temperature readings from a sensor can occur as a result of any of the wiring practices described below. These practices must be avoided to assure proper operation. Use shielded cable to reduce interference if rerouting of sensor wiring is not possible. a. Do not route temperature sensor wiring with

building power wiring, next to control contactors or near light dimming circuits,

electric motors or welding equipment. b. Avoid poor wiring connections. c. Avoid intermittent or missing building earth

ground.

CAUTION

Disconnect power supply before connecting to wiring to prevent electrical shock or equipment damage.

Wiring must comply with applicable codes, ordinances and regulations.

1 Wire the C7189 Sensor to the W8900 Remote

Module terminals S1 and S. For an example of general wiring of the C7189, see Fig. 2.

2 Push excess wire back into the hole. Plug the hole

using nonhardening caulk, putty or insulation to prevent drafts from affecting performance.

3 Remove C7189 cover. 4 Mount the C7189 to the wall or junction box using

the screws and anchors provided.

5 Level the C7189 for appearance only. Device will

function properly even when not level.

6 Install C7189 cover.
