General Description
The TCY-FT-U is a stand-alone electronic universal controller with one
temperature control loop. It may use up to 2 PID sequences. The TCY-FT-U
features 1 internal NTC temperature sensor, up to two external sensors
inputs and up to four binary outputs. The configuration has been reduced to
a minimum to allow for a simple and off the shelf usage. For more advanced
features the TCI product range may be used. The TCY-FT-U can be
configured using the standard operation terminal. No special tool or
software is required.

Selection of actuators and sensors
Temperature Sensors:
Use only our approved NTC sensors to achieve maximum accuracy. Recommended is SDB-Tn10-20 as Duct sensor, SRA-
Tn10 as Room sensor and SDB-Tn10-20 with AMI-S10 as immersion sensor.
3-point Actuators:
Actuators with constant running time are recommended. Observe power limits. Do not use actuators with power
consumption > 6VA. Adjust running time in SW. Default running time is 90s for fully open / close running time.
Housing: U = Vertical (2x4”) housing, Standard is square housing
Function: 2 = 2 = 2-Pipe, 4 = 4-Pipe
Input: T = Temperature, H = Humidity
Output: F = 3-point, M = Modulating, B = Binary
