VH7200 Humidistat Series
For Humidification & Dehumidification Control
For Commercial HVAC Applications
(Issue Date September 29, 2008 – 028-0208 R4)
Product overview |
|
The VH7200 humidity controller family is specifically designed for control of |
|
humidification and dehumidification equipment such as steam header direct |
|
injection, desiccant wheel, or stand alone humidification / dehumidification |
|
equipment. The product features a complete embedded humidity control |
|
solution with an intuitive backlit LCD display that walks the installer through the |
|
configuration steps, making the process extremely simple. Accurate relative |
|
humidity control is achieved due to the product’s unique PI time proportional |
|
control algorithm, which virtually eliminates humidity offset associated with |
|
traditional, differential-based humidity controllers. |
|
All models contain a binary input, which can be set by the user to monitor an |
|
electrode humidifier canister service status or may be used as a general |
|
purpose service indicator. Models are available which contain more advanced |
|
features such as discharge humidity proportional high limit, and indoor humidity |
|
setpoint reset based upon outdoor air temperature to conserve energy and |
|
eliminate condensation on windows and structure. |

Features overview
•Internal RH sensor and optional remote RH input with embedded humidification and dehumidification sequence of operation.
•Humidity set point reset based upon outdoor temperature sensing for added flexibility.
•Proportional high limit input to prevent over-humidification due to supply humidity condensation.
•Lockable keypads for tamper proofing. No need for extra humidistat guard.
•Programmable binary input for added flexibility. The input can be programmed as the following:
-None: No function will be associated with the input
-Service: a backlit flashing Service alarm will be displayed on the humidistat LCD screen when the input is energized. It can be tied in to the AC unit control card, which provides an alarm in case of malfunction.
-Canister: a backlit flashing Canister alarm will be displayed on the humidistat LCD screen when the input is energized. It can be tied to a Dry contact output supplied by others.
Installation
•Remove security screw on the bottom of humidistat cover.
•Open up by pulling on the bottom side of humidistat.
•Remove Assembly and remove wiring terminals from sticker.
(Fig. 2)
A) Location:
1- Should not be installed on an outside wall. 2- Must be installed away from any heat source.
3- Should not be installed near an air discharge grill. 4- Should not be affected by direct sun radiation.
5- Nothing must restrain vertical air circulation to the humidistat.
B) Installation:
1- Swing open the humidistat PCB to the left by pressing the PCB locking tabs. (Fig. 3)
2- Pull out cables 6” out of the wall.
3- Wall surface must be flat and clean.
4- Insert cable in the central hole of the base.
5- Align the base and mark the location of the two mounting holes on the wall. Install proper side of base up.
6- Install anchors in the wall.
7- Insert screws in mounting holes on each side of the base.
(Fig. 3)
8- Gently swing back the circuit board on the base and push on it until the tabs lock it.
10Strip each wire 1/4 inch.
11Insert each wire according to wiring diagram. 13Gently push back into hole excess wring (Fig. 4)
14- Re-Install wiring terminals in correct location. (Fig. 4) 15Reinstall the cover (top side first) and gently push back
extra wire length into the hole in the wall. 16Install security screw.
For VH7270D1000 duct-mount model only:
1- Make 1” diameter hole in duct wall
2- Insert the duct sensor and fix the electrical box to the duct wall in the vertical position (respect airflow direction).
3- Install the humidistat to the electrical box using the supplied screws (2).
4- Follow steps 1-16 above.

Wiring notes:
Note 1:
Reference of the analog 0-10 Vdc control signal is the common of the power supply of the humidistat. (terminal C)
Note 2:
Electromechanical dry contact is to be used with the binary input. Electronic triacs cannot be used as mean of switching for the input. The switched leg to the input for the input to activate is terminal Scom
Note 3:
The transformer of the unit provides power to the humidistat and any additional loads wired to the humidistat.
Note 4:
Both the remote humidity sensors ( HS & HL terminals ) use 0 to 10 Vdc type humidity sensors.

INSTALLATION NOTICE !
• If replacing an old humidistat, label the wires
before removal of the old humidistat.
• Electronic controls are static sensitive devices. Discharge yourself properly before manipulation and installing the humidistat.
•Short circuit or wrong wiring may permanently damage the humidistat or the equipment.
•Anti-short cycling can be set to 0 minutes for equipment that posses their own anti cycling timer. Do not use that value unless the equipment is equipped with such internal timer. Failure to do so can damage the equipment.
•All VH7200 series humidistat are to be used only as operating controls. Whenever a control failure could lead to personal injury and/or loss of property, it becomes the responsibility of the user to add safety devices and/or alarm system to protect against such catastrophic failures.
