_._A

STEP 1:Unpack the Humidifier Control Carton
Make sure all componentsare present(see FigureA):
%

A. HumidifierControl
B. OutdoorTemperatureSensor
C. SensorShield

STEP2: Disassemble the Humidifier Control

Figure A

Removeknob,then pull coveroffthe base•

STEP3: Check the Jumper Blocks
With the coverremoved, notice 5 pinscomingup from the base.Make surethe 2 sets of
jumper blocks are correctlysetfor the P/pe of humidifierbeing installed(see FigureB).

STEP4: Mount Humidifier Control
Control mustbemounted inthe ReturnDuct.Forproperoperation,the
Controlmust be at least 6 inches upstreamof anyof the following:

Usethe perforated HumidifierControltemplate(attachedto these instructions)to mark
the ductopeningand cut it. Use 4 sheetmetalscrews (notprovided)
to mountthe Control in the duct openingand makesure Control is sealeddghtJyto duct.

STEP5: Determine

Location for Outdoor Temperature Sensor

TheOutdoor TemperatureSensor:
1. Must be mountedon North,East orWest sideof house out ofdirect sunlight
2. Must be at least 3feet from all exhaust vents
3. Must be above expectedsnow line (Seefigure D)
Incorrect hamid_ levels will result if these requirements are not met.

STEP6: Locate Existing Access

Hole to Outside

A convenientway to get the Sensorwire outsideis to make
use ofunusedwires runningto the NC condensingunit
(if applicable).Otherwaysare to use existingholesfor
Cable TVlines,telephonelines,A/C lines, etc. Readall
equipmentinstructionsbeforehandfor possibleconflicts
andwamings.

PROCEDURE

Humidifierdoesnot
operatein "Test" mode

•

Make sure furnace blower is operatingandthermostatis callingfor heat.

•

Make sure the OutdoorTemperatureSensor is connectedto the "OutdoorTemperatureSensor"terminalsof the control.

•

Check mainwiring diagramfor correct HumidifierControl installation.

•

Check voltageat HumidifierControl24 VACterminals.Voltageshould he 22VACminimum- 30 VACmaximum.

•

Check HumidifierControl for correctinstallationofjumperblocks.

•

Check Current Sensing Relay(if used)for correctinstallation.Do notuse Model 50 Relayintransformercircuitor "24 VAC"
circuitof HumidifierControl. Model 50 relay is to be usedin the "A]A" circuitonly.

•

In "Test" mode,humidifier will operatefor 1 minute only.DO NOTLEAVEIN TESTMODEAS HUMIDIFIERWILL NOTOPERATE.

Humidifieroperatesonly
in "Test"mode

• If outdoor temperatureis greaterthan65°For lessthan -32°F,the HumidifierControl will
only operate in the "Test" mode.(AutomaticMode Only)
•

If the humidity level in the home is higher than the knob setting, the Humidifier Control will
not operate the Humidifier.

•

Check the resistance ofthe sensor by removing the leads of the OutdoorTemperature
Sensorfrom the terminals and measuringthe resistance across the wires with an ohmmeter.
Confrm reading to outdoor temperature in Table 1.

•
•
•

Make sure the Outdoor TemperatureSensor is mounted completely outside the house on
the North, East,or West side of the house and out of direct sunlight.
If OutdoorTemperature Sensor is mounted in fresh air intake duct, make surethe probe
is no further than 36 inchesfrom the outsidewall.
