Field Connections

Field connections for accessory sensors and input devices are made the RTU-MP, at plugs J1, J2, J4, J5, J11 and J20. All field control wiring that connects to the RTU-MP must be routed through the raceway built into the corner post as shown in Fig. 22. The raceway provides the UL required clearance between high- and low-voltage wiring. Pass the control wires through the hole provided in the corner post, then feed the wires thorough the raceway to the RTU-MP. Connect to the wires to the removable Phoenix connectors and then reconnect the connectors to the board.

Space Temperature (SPT) Sensors —

Afield-supplied Carrier space temperature sensor is required with the RTU-MP to monitor space temperature. There are 3 sensors available for this application:

S 33ZCT55SPT, space temperature sensor with override button

S 33ZCT56SPT, space temperature sensor with override button and setpoint adjustment

S 33ZCT59SPT, space temperature sensor with LCD (liquid crystal display) screen, override button, and setpoint adjustment

Use 20 gauge wire to connect the sensor to the controller. The wire is suitable for distances of up to 500 ft. Use a three-conductor shielded cable for the sensor and setpoint adjustment connections. If the setpoint adjustment (slidebar) is not required, then an unshielded, 18 or 20 gauge, two-conductor, twisted pair cable may be used.

Connect T-55:See Fig. 31 for typical T-55 internal connections. Connect the T-55 SEN terminals to RTU-MP J20-1 and J20-2. See Fig. 50.

Connect T-59:The T-59 space sensor requires a separate, isolated power supply of 24 VAC. See Fig. 51 for internal connections at the T-59. Connect the SEN terminal (BLU) to RTU-MP J20-1. Connect the COM terminal (BRN) to J20-2. Connect the SET terminal (STO or BLK) to J20-3.

Economizer Controls

Outdoor Air Enthalpy Control (PNO 33CSENTHSW) —

The enthalpy control (33CSENTHSW) is available as a field-installed accessory to be used with the EconoMi$er2 damper system. The outdoor air enthalpy sensor is part of the enthalpy control. (The separate field-installed accessory return air enthalpy sensor (33CSENTSEN) is required for differential enthalpy control. See Fig. 36.)

Locate the enthalpy control in the economizer next to the Actuator Motor. Locate two GRA leads in the factory harness and connect the gray lead labeled “ESL” to the terminal labeled “LOW”. See Fig. 36. Connect the enthalpy control power input terminals to economizer actuator power leads RED (connect to 24V) and BLK (connect to GND).

Connect T-56:See Fig. 33 for T-56 internal connections. Install a jumper between SEN and SET terminals as illustrated. Connect T-56 terminals to RTU-MP J20-1, J20-2 and J20-3 per Fig. 51.

Differential Enthalpy Control —

Differential enthalpy control is provided by sensing and comparing the outside air and return air enthalpy conditions. Install the outdoor air enthalpy control as described above. Add and install a return air enthalpy sensor.

Return Air Enthalpy Sensor —

Mount the return-air enthalpy sensor (33CSENTSEN) in the return-air section of the economizer. The return air sensor is wired to the enthalpy controller (33CSENTHSW). See Fig. 37.
