24--V WIRING
Ma ke field 24--v connections at the 24--v t erminal strip. (Se e Fig. 24)
Connect terminal Y as shown in Fig. 38 f or proper cooling
operation. Use only AWG No. 18, color--coded, copper thermost at
wir e .
The 24--v circuit contains an automotive--type, 3--amp. fuse located
on the control. Any direct shorts during installation, service, or
maintenance could cause this fuse to blow. If fuse replacement is
required, use ONLY a 3--a mp. fuse of identi ca l size .
ACCESSORIES
1. Electronic Air Cleaner (EAC)
Connect an accessory Electronic Air Cleaner (if used) using
1/4--in female quick connect terminals to the two male 1/4--in
quick--connect te r m ina l s on the cont rol boar d marked EAC
and NEUTRAL. The terminals are rated for 115 VAC, 1.0
am ps maxi m um a nd ar e ene rgized during blower motor op-
erati on. (Se e Fig. 23)
2. Humidif i e r (HUM)
Connect an accessory 115 VAC, 1 amp. maximum humidifi-
er (if used) to the 1/4--in male quick--connect HUM terminal
and NEUTRA L 1/ 4--in quic k c onnect. The HU M te r m i nal is
energized when the blower starts during a call for heat. (See
Fig. 23)
NOTE: A field--supplied, 115--v controlled relay connected to
EAC terminals may be added if humidifier operation is desired
during blower operation.
NOTE: DO NOT connect furnace control HUM terminal to
HUM (humidifier) terminal on Thermidistatt, Zone Controller
or similar device. See Thermidistat, Zone Controller, thermostat,
or controller manufacturer’s instructions for proper connection.
NOTE: DO NOT connect furnace control HUM 115VAC
terminal to H (humidifier) terminal on humidity sensing
thermostat, or similar device. See humidity sensing thermostat,
thermostat, or controller manufacturer’s instructions for proper
connection.
