Supply Air Temperature (SAT) Sensor —

On FIOP-equipped 48TC**16 units, the unit is supplied with a supply-air temperature (SAT) sensor (33ZCSENSAT). This sensor is a tubular probe type, approx 6-inches (12.7 mm) in length. It is a nominal 10-k ohm thermistor.

The SAT is factory-wired. The SAT probe is wire-tied to the supply-air opening (on the horizontal opening end) in its shipping position. Remove the sensor for installation. Re-position the sensor in the flange of the supply-air opening or in the supply air duct (as required by local codes). Drill or punch a 1/2-in. hole in the flange or duct. Use the template provided in the unit control box. Use two field-supplied, self-drilling screws to secure the sensor probe in a horizontal orientation. See Fig. 48.

NOTE: Refer to Form 33CS-67SI (or latest) for complete PremierLink configuration, operating sequences and troubleshooting information. Have a copy of this manual available at unit set-up

NOTE: The sensor must be mounted in the discharge airstream downstream of the cooling coil and any heating devices. Be sure the probe tip does not come in contact with any of the unit’s heater surfaces.

Outdoor Air Temperature (OAT) Sensor —

The OAT is factory-mounted in the EconoMi$er2 (FIOP or accessory). It is a nominal 10k ohm thermistor attached to an eyelet mounting ring.

EconoMi$er2 —

The PremierLink control is used with EconoMi$er2 (option or accessory) for outdoor air management. The damper position is controlled directly by the PremierLink control; EconoMi$er2 has no internal logic device.

Outdoor air management functions can be enhanced with field-installation of these accessory control devices:

Enthalpy control (outdoor air or differential sensors) Space CO2 sensor

Outdoor air CO2 sensor

Refer to Table 3 for accessory part numbers.

Field Connections

Field connections for accessory sensor and input devices are made at the 16-pole terminal block (TB3) located beneath the PremierLink control (see Fig. 46). Some input devices also require a 24-vac signal source; connect at CTB terminal R at “THERMOSTAT” connection strip for this signal source. See connections figures on following pages for field connection locations (and for continued connections at the PremierLink board inputs). Route wires to control box as indicated in Fig. 39.

Table 4 provides a summary of field connections for units equipped with Space Sensor. Table 5 provides a summary of field connections for units equipped with Space Thermostat.
