5. Wiring
Important
Each 3-wire (SPDT) actuator must have individual SPDT
controller.
On 24V systems, never jumper valve coil terminals, even
temporarily.This may damage the thermostat.
The cable version must be used for mixed line voltage and
24 Vac (Safety Extra Low Voltage) applications
For controller action and electrical terminations, see Tables
1&2.
Fig. 5 show wiring diagrams as printed on product label for Cable
Model and Molex™ Model for use with SPDT controller.
Fig. 6 show wiring connections with SPDT and SPST controllers.
Port "A" open and closed denote valve open and closed posi-
tions. On auxiliary switch models, terminal 4 (grey wire) contact
makes at the end of Port A opening stroke. On Molex™
connector models, valve & auxiliary switch voltage must be the
same to meet approval requirement

1. Raise set point of zone thermostat above room temperature
to initiate a call for heat. White valve position lever should
move.
2. For auxiliary switch models, observe all control devices.
Valve should open and auxiliary switch (if present) should
close and make contact at the end of stroke to activate auxi-
liary equipment.
3. Lower set point of zone thermostat below room temperature.
4. Observe control devices. Port A should close and all auxiliary
equipment should stop.

Honeywell hydronic valves are designed and tested for
silent operation in properly designed and installed
systems. However, water noises may occur as a result of
excessive water velocity. Piping noises may occur in high
temperature (100°C) systems with insufficient water pres-
sure.
