ENDVIEWOF425 ELECTRO-MECHANICALPROGRAMMER
The 425 Range of traditional Electro-mechanical
Programmers offer a simple yet effective way
of controlling your environment. The twin circuit
Diadem and Tiara will also allow you to have
independent control of Hot water and Central
heating.
INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY A SUITABLY QUALIFIED PERSON
AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CURRENT EDITION OF THE IEE WIRING REGULATIONS.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING:ISOLATE MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE COMMENCING INSTALLATION
FITTING THE BACKPLATE
Once the Backplate has been removed from
the packaging please ensure the programmer
is re-sealed to prevent damage from dust,
debris etc.
The Backplate should be fitted with the
wiring terminals located at the top and in a
position which allows the relevant clearances
around the programmer. (See diagram)
DIRECT WALL MOUNTING
the Backplate fits to the right hand end of the programmer.
Mark the fixing positions through the slots in the Backplate(Fixing centres 60.3mm), drill and plug the
wall, then secure the plate in position. The slots in the Backplate will
compensate for any misalignment of the fixings.

TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAMS
Example circuit diagrams for some typical installations are shown below. These diagrams are
schematic and should be used as a guide only.
Please ensure that all installations comply with the current IEE regulations.
For reasons of space and clarity not every system has been included and the diagrams have been
simplified, for instance some Earth connections have been omitted.
Other control components shown in the diagrams i.e. Valves, RoomStats etc are general
representations only. However the wiring detail can be applied to the corresponding models of most
manufactures e.g. Horstmann, Honeywell, Danfoss Randall, ACL Drayton etc.
