Carrier 50TC PremierLink Filter Switch Connection, PremierLink Wiring Fan Pressure Switch

PremierLink control can monitor return filter status in two ways: By monitoring a field-supplied/installed filter pressure switch or via supply fan runtime hours.

Using switch input: Install the dirty filter pressure switch according to switch manufacturer’s instructions, to measure pressure drop across the unit’s return filters. Connect one side of the switch’s NO contact set to CTB’s THERMOSTAT-R terminal. Connect the other side of the NO contact set to TB1-10. Setpoint for Dirty Filter is set at the switch. See Fig. 41.

When the filter switch’s NO contact set closes as filter pressure drop increases (indicating dirt-laden filters), the input signal to PremierLink causes the filter status point to read “DIRTY”.

Using Filter Timer Hours: Refer to Form 33CS-58SI for instructions on using the PremierLink Configuration screens and on unit alarm sequence.

Supply Fan Status Switch — The PremierLink control can monitor supply fan operation through a field-supplied/installed differential pressure switch. This sequence will prevent (or interrupt) operation of unit cooling, heating and economizer functions until the pressure switch contacts are closed indicating proper supply fan operation.

Install the differential pressure switch in the supply fan section according to switch manufacturer’s instructions. Arrange the switch contact to be open on no flow and to close as pressure rises indicating fan operation.

Connect one side of the switch’s NO contact set to CTB’s THERMOSTAT-R terminal. Connect the other side of the NO contact set to TB1-8. Setpoint for Supply Fan Status is set at the switch. See Fig. 42.

Connection

Remote Occupied Switch — The PremierLink control permits a remote timeclock to override the control’s on-board occupancy schedule and place the unit into

Occupied mode. This function may also provide a “Door Switch” time delay function that will terminate cooling and heating functions after a 2-20 minute delay.

Connect one side of the NO contact set on the timeclock to CTB’s THERMOSTAT-R terminal. Connect the other side of the timeclock contact to the unit’s TB1-2 terminal.

Refer to Form 33CS-58SI for additional information on configuring the PremierLink control for Door Switch timer function.

Space Relative Humidity Sensor — The RH sensor is not used with these 50Hz 50TC models at this time.

CCN Communication Bus — The PremierLink controller connects to the bus in a daisy chain arrangement. Negative pins on each component must be connected to respective negative pins, and likewise, positive pins on each component must be connected to respective positive pins. The controller signal pins must be wired to the signal ground pins. Wiring connections for CCN must be made at the 3-pin plug.

At any baud (9600, 19200, 38400 baud), the number of controllers is limited to 239 devices maximum. Bus length may not exceed 1219 m (4000 ft), with no more than 60 total devices on any 305 m (1000-ft) section. Optically isolated RS-485 repeaters are required every 305 m (1000 ft).

NOTE: Carrier device default is 9600 band.

COMMUNICATION BUS WIRE SPECIFICATIONS — The CCN Communication Bus wiring is field-supplied and field-installed. It consists of shielded 3-conductor cable with drain (ground) wire. The cable selected must be identical to the CCN Communication Bus wire used for the entire network.

See Table 7 for recommended cable.
