CHECKOUT

After installing the thermostat, verify proper operation.

Note: If external setpoint knobs are installed, use TOOL-80-1 to turn setpoint dials (thermostat cover must be removed).

1. Measure the ambient temperature near the thermostat with an accurate thermometer. The ambient should be stable and between 60 and 80 °F (16 and 27 °C) to effectively check thermostat operation.

2. Check the Zero Energy Band (ZEB) pressure. Set the heating dial to 5 (29 °C). Branch pressure should equal the ZEB pressure, which is factory set at 8 psi. The ZEB pressure should be between the spring ranges of the actuators being controlled. If a ZEB pressure other than what is observed is required, see ADJUSTMENTS.

3. Check thermostat operation. Slowly increase the setting of the heating dial. ambient temperature, branch pressure should fall if the unit is direct acting (TK-1801) or rise if the unit is reverse acting (TK-1811). Reset the heating dial to 55 °F (13 °C)

and dial setting falls below the ambient temperature, branch pressure should rise if the unit is direct acting or fall if the unit is reverse acting.

Note: The amount of rise or drop in branch pressure may vary depending on the throttling range setting of the thermostat and the ambient temperature in the test area. If the branch pressure is always 0 psig (0kPa), the restriction may be plugged. If the branch pressure is always equal to supply or unable to be decreased below 3 psig (21 kPa), the nozzle may be plugged.

4. Check for active heating thermal element. Set the cooling dial to 85 °F (29 °C). Vary the setting of the heating dial to obtain a branch pressure of approximately 3 psig (21 kPa) on a direct acting unit (TK-1801) or 12 psig (82 kPa) on a reverse acting unit (TK-1811). Slightly warm the element with your hand or breath. Branch pressure should increase on a direct acting unit or decrease on a reverse acting unit.

System Checkout

After thermostat operation has been checked, check system operation as follows:

1. Set the heating dial at 55 °F (13 °C) and the cooling dial at

85 °F (29 °C). The ambient temperature at the thermostat should be stable an

2. Verify that both the heating and cooling media are off (or

at minimum, depending on system design). If one or both are energized, contrary to system design, the use of positive positioners on the heating and/or cooling actuators can overcome this problem. Alternatively, a 1:2 ratio relay in the branch line to the heating and/or cooling actuators can be used. Note that this will affect the system throttling range, and that adjustments of the thermostat throttling range may be required.

3. Slowly increase the setting of the heating dial. When the

l setting exceeds the a

setting falls below ambien medium should be energized.

ADJUSTMENTS

Zero Energy Band Pressure

The Zero Energy Band (Z.E.B.) pressure (see Figure 7) is factory set at 8 psig (55 kPa). To check this setting, refer to Step 1 below. This pressure should be set midway between the pressure ranges of the heating and cooling actuators in order to obtain proper sequencing, and the actuator ranges should be separated by a minimum of 2 psi (more if possible). If a Z.E.B. pressure other than the factory setting is desired, proceed as follows:

1. Set the heating dial at 55 °F (13 °C) and the cooling dial at °F (29 °C). Ambient temperature should be between 60

85 and 80°F (16 and 27 °C). The resulting branch pressure is the Z.E.B. pressure. To increase this setting, turn the calibrating screw counterclockwise (see Figure 8).

2. Check the calibration of both dials (see CALIBRATION).

Note: The throttling range of the thermostat is divided equally between heating and cooling. If the thermostat throttling range is set at 4 °F, the throttling rang is 2 °F for heating and 2 °F for cooling (see Figure 7).

To check the throttling range

1. Ambient temperature, as measured by an accurate thermometer, sh (16 and 27 °C).

2. Set the up 85 °F (29 °C) and note the Z.E.B. pressure.

3. Slowly increase the setting of the upper dial until the branch pressure begins to change and note the dial setting. Continue to increase the setting until branch pressure reaches 3 psig (21 kPa) on direct acting models or 13 psig (89 kPa) on reverse acting models. The total throttling range is:

To adjust the throttling range

1. Move the throttling range adjustment slider in the required direction (see Figure 8).

2. Readjust the Z.E.B. pressure (see Zero Energy Band Pressure).

3. Check the calibration of both dials (see CALIBRATION).

Figure-8

Throttling Range

Throttling range is factory set at 4 °F per 10 psi (2 °C per 62 kPa) change. If the throttling range setting is too wide, excessive offset or droop will be encountered and the throttling range should be decreased. If the throttling range is too narrow, system cycling or hunting will occur and the throttling range should be increased. If stable control cannot be obtained, check system component sizing, sensor location, and system response time as possible causes. The thermostat throttling range should be set at the lowest value which will allow the thermostat to control the system without cycling under normal load conditions.

Adjustment of Dial Stops

To set the setpoint dial stops, proceed as follows:

1. Using the TOOL-82 5/64" Allen wrench, loosen the two dial clamp screws approximately

2. Separate the two dial stop tabs if not already separated.

3. Using the TOOL-82 5/64" Allen wrench, turn the setpoint dial to the desired clockwise dial limit. While holding the dial with the Allen wrench, slide one stop tab in a clockwise direction until it touches the top side of the stop tang.

4. Rotate the setpoint dial to the counterclockwise limit. While holding the other stop tab counterclockwise to touch the bottom of the stop tang.

5. Carefully tighten the dial screws with the TOOL-82 5/64" Allen wren

6. Rotate setpoint dial from counterclockwise stop to clockwise stop to check the stop settings. Repeat adjustment steps if necessary.

Converting Dials to °C

To convert the unit from °F dial reading to °C dial reading, proceed as follows:

1. Rotate setpoint dial clockwise to end of dial scale.

2. While holding dial, use the TOL-82 5/64" Allen wrench to remove the dial screws.

3. Carefully remove dial plate and turn over. Make sure stop tab plates and clamp ring are in place.

4. Align dial plate to read clockwise end of °C scale.

Procedure

1. Remove the thermostat cover by loosening the cover screw.

2. Check the Zero Energy Band pressure setting of the thermostat per CHECKOUT, step 2.

3. Using the TOOL-82 5/64" Allen wrench, unscrew (counterclockwise rotation) the branch test port one full turn (see Figure 8).

4. Attach the test gauge rubber seal to the boss. Using a rotary motion [1/4"(6mm) minimum]. The tubing will support the test gauge in a position where it can be easily read.

5. Adjust the dial being calibrated to the measured ambient temperature. The other dial should be set at the end of its range (low end for heating, high end for cooling).

6. Using TOOL-80-1 to prevent the dial from rotating, use the TOOL-82 0.048" six-splin calibrating screw (see Figure 9) until branch pressure equals the Z.E.B. pressure (or alternatively the mid-range pressure of the actuator being controlled).

7. Reset the dial to the end of its range (low end for heating, high end for cooli other dial if required.

8. Return both dials to their nominal settings, remove the test gauge, turn the branch test gauge screw clockwise to tighten, and replace the cover.

CALIBRATION

As a nominal calibration, the branch line control pressure should be the Zero Energy Band pressure (factory set at 8.0 psig) when the setpoint is equal to the ambient temperature as measured by an accurate thermometer. This means that when space temperature is between the two dial settings, both heating and cooling are off. It also means that the heating and cooling throttling ranges are offset above and below their respective dial settings (see Figure 7). If desired, the thermostat can be calibrated so the branch pressure equals the center of the actuator spring ranges when ambient temperature equals setpoint. Note, however, that in the case the total thermostat throttling range must be subtracted from the Zero Energy Band. For example, if the heating setpoint is 65 °F (18 °C), the cooling setpoint is 78 °F (26 °C). and the

rottling range is 6

th minus 65 °F minus 3 °F or 10 °F (6 °C) total.

When checking or changing the calibration of the heating dial, set the cooling dial or changing the ca dial at 55 °F (13 °C).

Caution: The thermal element of the room thermostat is very sensitive to temperature change. Do not effect its temperature by touching the bimetal or breathing on the thermostat. When calibrating the instrument, observe the wall box temperature frequently and reset the setpoint dial if

°F (3 °C), the Zero Energy Band is 78 °F

at 85 °F (29 °C). Likewise, when checking libration of the cooling dial, set the heating

MAINTENANCE

This is a quality product. Regular maintenance of the total system is recommended to assure sustained optimum performance. No routine maintenance of this device is required if the system is properly maintained.

REPAIR

Field repair of pneumatic thermostats is not recommended. However, if the thermostat output pressure is 0 and it cannot be corrected by calibration, the restriction should be checked. Hold the restriction plate up to the light and check the 0.0045 hole. If the hole is blocked, the restriction plate must be replaced. The filter should be replaced at the same time. If the hole is not blocked, then the thermostat should be replaced.

Before replacing a thermostat, check to make sure the

ermostat

th main air pressure, and check for foreign material (dirt, oil, water, etc.) in the air supply. If the air supply is contaminated, remedy this before replacing the thermostat.
