About This Document
This document describes mounting, installation and wiring of the WCX Series Valve Position Sensor and antennas.
Configuration, authentication and operation are covered in other documents.
Honeywell does not recommend using devices for critical control where there is a single point of failure or where
single points of failure result in unsafe conditions. OneWireless is targeted at open loop control, supervisory
control, and controls that do not have environmental or safety consequences. As with any process control solution,
the end-user must weigh the risks and benefits to determine if the products used are the right match for the
application based on security, safety, and performance. Additionally, it is up to the end-user to ensure that the
control strategy sheds to a safe operating condition if any crucial segment of the control solution fails.

Bracket mounting
Orientation
The WCX Series sensor may be mounted in any vertical, horizontal or angled orientation. The main
consideration is to facilitate coupling of the valve or other device to the input shaft of the sensor.
For best signal, it is generally recommended that the antenna be oriented vertically (see section 4).
A higher elevation may give better signal range than a lower elevation, depending on obstacles.
Attach bracket to pipe
Figure 4 shows some commonly used customer-provided bracket and pipe orientations. Not all
possibilities are shown; any bracket (flat or angle) and orientation (parallel or transverse) may be used to
get the desired input shaft positioning with respect to the valve being monitored.
When considering brackets with flanged sides (as in illustration), insure that the whole portion of the
exposed input shaft extends past the flanges to provide sufficient clearance from the connecting linkage to
be used.
Position bracket on 2-inch (50.8 mm) pipe and install “U” bolt around pipe and through holes in bracket.

3.1
Basic Requirements
Non-sparking Considerations
To maintain non-sparking characteristics, non-sparking linkages, actuators and hardware are required.
Distance from Multinode
The maximum range of the WCX sensor system is 1000 feet (305 Meters), under ideal conditions, with a
clear line of sight. This will be reduced if the signal has to pass through dense materials such as brick,
concrete, or wood. Metal objects, tanks, pipes, or other structures, will not pass signals, however signals
will tend to reflect off metallic objects, such that clear line of sight may not be essential.
Angle to be measured
The angle input to the sensor input shaft must be no greater than approximately 270 degrees. If the input
linkage used applies an angular movement greater than this, proper calibration will not be possible.
Angular motion beyond 270 degrees will engage the slip clutch within the product.
Sensor update rate
The maximum update rate possible is one measurement and update per second. Insure that the update rate
chosen will capture all necessary events when the monitored device is moving at its fastest speed. The rate
of data updates may be set through Wireless Builder. The update rate cannot be set locally using the IR
port. If the factory default update rate is not suitable for the application, it should be changed through
Wireless Builder. Note that the default refresh rate is factory set to one per 30 seconds to maximize battery
life. Battery life will be affected by the update rate selected; faster rates will decrease battery life.
Access to cover for configuring sensor, changing batteries
Configuring and calibrating will require access to the top of the sensor. Allow room for cover removal and
for a clear view of the IR sensing element (see WCX Series Sensor User's Manual).
Replacement of internal batteries will require removing the cover, and partial removal of a battery
assembly. Allow clearance for this (see WCX Series Sensor User's Manual).
Honeywell recommends that the sensor be removed from service and moved to a clean area before
servicing. Use care to avoid rotating the input shaft, causing the internal slip clutch to slip.
Proximity to high powered L-band transmitters
The WCX Series sensor system operates in the 2.4 Ghz. frequency band using an encrypted, spreadspectrum data modulation, with very high immunity to interference from other signals. Other devices
using low powered signals in this frequency range are some cordless telephones, personal computer WI-FI
links and routers, and video/audio remote transmission links. These are highly unlikely to cause any signal
overloading problems and thus, de-sensitization of the data link (low signal).
However, some high-powered microwave heating devices may operate with 1,000 watts or more, and may
operated in nearby frequency bands. While likelihood of interference is very small, it is best to avoid
locating sensors or multinodes in very close proximity to such devices.

3.2. Linkage Alignment
3.2
Linkage Alignment
Axis of valve and sensor input shaft
To allow smooth rotation, the axis of the valve or device must be parallel to the centerline of the sensor
input shaft, unless a flexible form of linkage (cables or ball joints) is used.
Alignment of linkage
If cables or ball joint couplings are not used, the linkage used must form a 90 degree angle with the sensor
input shaft and the valve shaft.
Figure 6 Axis Parallel and Linkage 90 degrees with shafts
If angle linearity is required
If the angle measurement must be linear (end points and all points between must be measured accurately),
then the sensor arm, valve arm, shaft-to-shaft spacing, and the linkage length must form a parallelogram
(see figure below).

3. Process Insertion
3.2. Linkage Alignment
Figure 7 Parallelogram formed by linkage
A second alternative method for achieving measurement linearity would be to mount the sensor directly
above the valve shaft (see Section 2.4).
Coupling with pulleys
Instead of linkages, two small pulleys with steel cable could couple the two shafts. A means of
maintaining cable tension would be needed. By using two different pulley diameters, angles of greater
than 270 degrees could be measured, or a small angle could be measured to greater precision. With equal
sized pulleys, the measured angle would be equal to the valve angle. With unequal sized pulleys, the
measured angle would be as follows:
MEASURED ANGLE = VALVE ANGLE * (VALVE PULLEY DIAMETER / SENSOR PULLEY DIAMETER)
If clockwise is to be translated into counter clockwise
If, due to measurement requirements, the clockwise rotation of an actuator or other device is to be sensed
as counterclockwise rotation, the linkage may be configured to do so. Note that angle measurement
linearity may be achieved if the dimensions are controlled as previously described.

3. Process Insertion
3.3. Non-Valve Applications
Figure 8 Changing CW into CCW
If an angle greater than 270 degrees is to be measured, the length of the valve arm may be reduced. If a
small angle is to be measured with greater precision, the length of the valve arm may be increased. Note
that these two options will make actual angle measurements non-linear.
3.3
Non-Valve Applications
Door Position Sensing
By positioning the WCX sensor above a door with the shaft axis vertical, above the hinges, a short linkage
could sense the amount of door opening. The low cal. position could be full closed and the high cal.
position could be full open. Note that this would not be suitable for intrusion detection as a very fast
open/close cycle could be shorter than the maximum update rate from the sensor (1 second intervals).
Air Handler Plenum Door Position Sensing
Similar to door position sensing, the sensing of air handler status could be monitored. The sensor could be
mounted with the sensor shaft directly coupled to the plenum valve shaft.
Linear Displacement
Adding a lightweight pulley with thin wire rope to the sensor input shaft would allow conversion of linear
displacement to a measured angle. The diameter of the pulley would determine the sensitivity and range of
the measurement.
Note that stops would be advised to prevent the sensor input shaft angle from exceeding the 270 degree
limit.

Radio installation requirements
ATTENTION
Professional Installation is required to insure conformity with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) in the USA, Industry Canada (IC) in Canada and the Radio and
Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Directive, 1999/5/EC (R&TTE), in the European
Union (EU).
Professional installation is required for the selection and installation of approved antennas and
setup of the maximum allowable radiated power from the WCX Series Valve Position Sensor
as configured for the particular installation site.
The antennae used for this sensor must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
For remote antenna, see antenna installation requirements to satisfy FCC RF exposure
requirements.
ATTENTION
Federal Communications Commission (FCC):
The WCX Series Valve Position Sensors comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Industry Canada (IC):
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such
that it does not emit RF fields in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population;
consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s web site www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.
4.2
Integral antenna
WARNING
POTENTIAL ELECTROSTATIC CHARGING HAZARD
The integrally mounted antenna shroud is made of Teflon® and has a surface
resistance greater than 1Gohm per square. When the WCX Series Valve
Position Sensor is installed in potentially hazardous locations care should be
taken not to electrostatically charge the surface of the antenna shroud by
rubbing the surface with a cloth, or cleaning the surface with a solvent. If
electrostatically charged, discharge of the antenna shroud to a person or a
tool could possibly ignite a surrounding hazardous atmosphere.

If your model has the integral elbow antenna you can adjust it to improve reception. The least signal
radiation is in a direction in line with the top (pointed end), so it is best to avoid having the antenna pointed
directly toward, or directly away from, the multinode. Typically, pointed straight up gives best
performance but your installation may vary. Loosen the 1.5mm (approx. 1/16") set screw located near the
antenna base. Rotate antenna for best reception. Do not rotate antenna more than 180 degrees either
direction or the internal antenna cable could be damaged. Tighten set screw.
