Mounting
Location and Mounting Considerations
Observe these guidelines when locating and mounting
a P216 Series Fan Speed Controller:
• Ensure that the mounting surface and mounting
hardware can support the control and wiring.
• Mount the P216 Series controller upright on a
vertical surface with the heat sink fins oriented
vertically and the conduit/electrical holes facing
down.
Figure 1: P216 Condenser Fan Speed Controller
Mounting Dimensions, mm
• Ensure that air can flow through the heat sink fins
and provide 10 cm (4 in.) minimum clearance
around the heat sink.
• Mount the P216 Series controller in a location
away from sources of excessive heat and within
the specified ambient operating conditions.
See Technical Specification for ambient operating
conditions.
IMPORTANT: Use this P216 Series Condenser
Fan Speed Controller only as an operating control.
Where failure or malfunction of the P216 Series Fan
Speed Controller could lead to personal injury or
property damage to the controlled equipment or
other property, additional precautions must be
designed into the control system. Incorporate and
maintain other devices, such as supervisory or
alarm systems or safety or limit controls, intended to
warn of or protect against failure or malfunction of
the P216 Series Fan Speed Controller.
!
CAUTION: Risk of Property Damage
Use only single-phase Permanent Split
Capacitor (PSC) motors approved by the
manufacturer for speed control
application with the P216 Series
controller. Failure to use a single-phase
PSC motor may damage the motor and
other property.

Issued 27 August 2015
P216 Series Condenser Fan Speed Controller Installation Instructions2
Installation
Wiring
• Ensure that the wires between the P216 Series
controller and the fan motor do not exceed 100 m
(328 ft).
• Wires connected to the line-voltage terminal block
must be 3,31 mm2(12 AWG) or smaller.
• Low-voltage wires must be less than 30 m (100 ft).
Description
A DIP switch will be used to select one of 4 different
pressure ranges. There is one potentiometer to
manually adjust the setpoint.
• There is one potentiometer to manually adjust the
minimum speed.
• A green LED will indicate that power is applied.
• Two 3 position screw terminal blocks will be used
to connect the 50 bar transducers.
• A 3 position screw terminal block will be used to
select HP or Reverse modes.
• Contacts between HP and C will run the fan at full
speed.
• Contacts between REV and C will increase the fan
speed as pressure decreases (Reverse Operation).

!
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock.
Disconnect or isolate all power supplies
before making electrical connections.
More than one disconnect or isolation
may be required to completely
de-energize equipment. Contact with
components carrying hazardous voltage
can cause electric shock and may result
in severe personal injury or death.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect supply power to the
P216 Series controller before finishing wiring and
checking all wiring connections. Short circuits or
improperly connected wires can result in damage to
the P216 Series controller and void any warranty.
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the P216 Series Fan
Speed Controller electrical ratings. Exceeding P216
Series controller electrical ratings can result in
permanent damage to the P216 Series controller
and void any warranty.
IMPORTANT: Use copper conductors only.
Make all wiring in accordance with local, national,
and regional regulations.
IMPORTANT: Electrostatic discharge can damage
P216 controller components. Use proper
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions during
installation and servicing to avoid damaging P216
components.

P216 Series Condenser Fan Speed Controller Installation Instructions 3
There is a 4 position DIP switch to choose various setup configurations.
When Switch 3 is set to OFF, the Master Mode is selected and one or two P499VCS-405C Pressure Transducers
are used as inputs to change the speed of a fan motor. In Normal Operation, the maximum speed occurs when the
higher of the 2 pressure inputs is greater than or equal to the setpoint and the minimum speed occurs when the
pressure is equal to the setpoint minus the prop. band (see P216 Normal Operation Example).
In Reverse Operation (selected by connecting a jumper between the REV and C terminals), the minimum speed
occurs when the pressure is equal to the setpoint and the maximum speed occurs when the pressure is less than
or equal to the setpoint minus the prop. band.
When Switch position 3 is set to ON, the Slave Mode is selected and the Setpoint potentiometer defines the input
voltage level that causes the motor to run at full speed. For example, if the 2-10 Vdc Setpoint Range is selected
and the Setpoint potentiometer is adjusted completely to "+", then the motor will run at full speed when Vin = 10 Vdc.
If the Setpoint potentiometer is adjusted midway between "-" and "+", then the motor will run at full speed when
Vin = 6,0 Vdc (see P216 Slave Operation Example).

P216 Normal Operation Example using a 230 V Supply- Output Voltage vs Input Pressure
Note: Set switches 1-3 as shown to select a 14-24 Bar Setpoint range with a 4 Bar Proportional Band.
Adjust the Setpoint potentiometer to 20 Bar (which is 60% rotation from the "-" or CCW end of the Setpoint
potentiometer). Adjust the Min. Speed potentiometer completely CCW (to set the Min Speed to 20% of
230V or 46V). Setting Switch 4 to ON causes the motor to always run at minimum speed or greater.

P499 Electronic Pressure Transducers
P216 Series controllers are designed to reference
either one or two Johnson Controls P499 Electronic
Pressure Transducers to monitor condenser pressure.
On P216 Series controller applications that use two
P499 transducers, the P216 Series controller always
references the transducer that is sensing the higher
pressure.
P499VCS-405C, 0-50 bar, 0-10 Vdc Output,
Pressure Transducer
Only P499 models that have a 0-10 Vdc output signal
can be used with the P216 control.
IMPORTANT: Operate the P216 only in
combination with one or two P499VCS-405C
Pressure Transducers.
