Humidity Control

APPLICATION

The humidity control provides automatic low voltage

control of humidifiers in central heating and cooling

equipment for both humidification and dehumidification

applications. See Fig. 1. It has an spst, snap-acting,

dust-proof switch that opens when humidity rises above

the control setting. It is designed for wall or surface duct

mounting.

INSTALLATION

When Installing this Product...

1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow

them could damage the product or cause a haz-

ardous condition.

2. Check the ratings given in the instructions and on

the product to make sure the product is suitable

for your application.

3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service

technician.

4. After installation is complete, check out product

operation as provided in these instructions.

CAUTION

Personal Injury Hazard.

Power supply can cause electrical shock.

Disconnect power supply before beginning

installation.

Location and Mounting

A mounting template is included for mounting the

humidity control next to your thermostat. See Fig. 2.

However, the humidity control can be mounted in any

other convenient location in the living area or equipment

room.

NOTE: The humidity control electrical connections are

not shared with the thermostat.

Fig. 1. Humidity control.

Wall Mounting

IMPORTANT

Mount the control in an area with average

room temperature and average relative

humidity.

Select a location for mounting the humidity control:

1. Hold the mounting template (included) next to

your thermostat. Select the mounting side for the

humidity control. The template is reversible for

mounting on either the left or right side of the

humidity control. See Fig. 2.

2. Mark the holes for the two mounting screws

(included). Then mark the hole for the low voltage

wiring on the template that corresponds with the

side selected in step 1.

3. Remove the template and drill the holes.

4. Run low voltage wiring to the location and pull

about 6 in. (152 mm) of wire through the hole.

5. Plug hole with nonflammable insulation to prevent

drafts from affecting the control operation.

6. Remove the humidity control case from the base.

See Fig. 1.

7. Position the base on the wall with the arrow up.

8. Use the two in. (25 mm) mounting screws to

secure the base to the wall.

IMPORTANT

Use 18- to 22-gauge wire for proper wiring.

9. Connect the low voltage wires to the leads on the

humidity control.

10. Replace the humidity control case.

Duct Mounting

IMPORTANT

When mounting near an elbow area, locate the

control 6 in. (152 mm) upstream from the

elbow so the element is exposed to the normal

airflow (Fig. 3).

Fig. 3. Selecting duct location for control.

1. Locate the control at least 8 in. (203 mm)

upstream from the humidifier in the return air duct.

See Fig. 3.

2. Apply the duct template to the duct location.

3. Use the duct template, Fig. 4, to make the

opening and mounting holes for the humidity

control.

4. Remove the humidity control case from the base.

See Fig. 1.

5. Position the foam gasket on the humidity control

base.

6. Position the base on the duct with the arrow up.

7. Use the four 1 in. (25 mm) mounting screws to

secure the base to the duct.

8. Connect the low voltage wires to the leads on the

humidity control.

9. Replace the humidity control case.

IMPORTANT

Use 18- to 22-gauge wire for correct wiring.

Do not install control on supply (hot air) ductwork.

To use template:

1. Remove backing and apply template to duct.

2. Cut along template dotted line and drill the

mounting holes.

CAUTION

Personal Injury Hazard.

Power supply can cause electrical shock and

injury.

Disconnect power supply before installation or

servicing.

All wiring must comply with applicable local codes, ordi-

nances and regulations. Make wiring connections

according to humidifier instructions, if available; other-

wise, see typical wiring diagrams in Fig. 5 through 9.

IMPORTANT

Select models of fan centers include humidifier

taps so the current sensing relay or sail switch

is not needed.

If not using a current sensing relay or sail

switch, the humidifier must be energized

during blower motor cycles for correct

operation.

On multispeed blower applications, do not wire

the high voltage side of the transformer to the

same power source that services the furnace

blower. Premature transformer burnout can

occur.

CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

Humidity Control Adjustment

To maintain optimum humidity control without causing

condensation on cold surfaces such as windows, the

homeowner must adjust the setpoint as the outdoor

temperature changes.

To reduce relative humidity, reduce the setpoint

approximately 3% RH humidity every 24 hours. To

increase relative humidity, increase the setpoint

approximately 3% RH every 24 hours.

Setpoint Adjustment

Set the humidity setpoint according to the prevailing

outdoor temperature. See Table 1 for recommended

settings.

CAUTION

Personal Injury Hazard.

Power supply can cause electrical shock and

injury.

Disconnect power supply before installation or

All wiring must comply with applicable local codes, ordi-

nances and regulations. Make wiring connections

wise, see typical wiring diagrams in Fig. 10 and 11.

COOLING CYCLE HUMIDITY

CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS

It is desirable to maintain the humidity in the living

space at the humidification comfort range of 25 to 50

percent relative humidity.

To reduce the relative humidity, position the arrow on

the humidity control to the humidity control setting:

40 setting controls to 40+/-10% RH.

50 setting controls to 50+/-10% RH.

When activated, the humidity control lowers the

furnace/air handler blower speed, reducing air velocity

over the furnace/air handler coil and removing a geater

amount of moisture from the air.
